Recently read an article that suggests 0.25% concentration of topical finasteride decreases dht in the scalp at about 70% similar to that of 1mg oral, while reducing systemic dht by only 20-30 percent. Does anyone have any experience with topical finasteride? Any experience with this concentration?

I don’t know how they would be able to confirm that without blood tests. The side effects would also be individual, unless they did a double-blind test with a large pool. As far as I’m aware, jury’s still out on the efficacy and side effects.
