devnull Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I am on 12.5mg Androcur/CPA daily and 4mg Estrofem sublingual, as I am trans. My testosterone is nearly undetectable, but I don't have tests for DHT. Is there any reason to add Finasteride for hair regrwoth purposes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re trans, best to get on oral spiro and progesterone, which are powerful 5-alpha reductase blockers, with feminizing affects. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

From my understanding, spiro is not an 5arI perse, moreover it is an antiandrogen. I am using CPA which does a much better job as AA and is not so bad to the to the liver. So I think switching CPA in favour of Spiro is a really bad idea. Progestogene is a good idea 👍, but using it to early in transition might harm the breast growth, there is also a backway path of P4 which might increase Testosterone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
