Topical anti-androgens


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, was wondering if anyone here has experience with topical anti-androgens. Looking to add it to finasteride. I’ve read up a little on RU58841 . Wondering if anyone has experience using it or other topical anti androgens to look into. As well as any side effects to note. Thanks all!

Topical finasteride and dutasteride is the way to go. RU58841 gave me sides, and could potentially affect your heart. Definitely not worth it. CB-03-01 is one to look for in the future.

Thanks my man! So you can stack topical finasteride and oral finasteride ? I didn’t even think of that haha

I agree that if you’re going to try a topical antiandrogen that you should try finasteride or dutasteride.  That said, taking it orally would be the better way to go unless you’ve experienced side effects.   

If you’ve experienced side effects and / or are concerned about them, then the next best thing to do is to try taking them topically.

Best wishes,

I’m actually already taking oral finasteride! Just wanted to add a topical as well!
