Creatine

[Gatsby]

I'm using topical finasteride prescribed by Dr Bevin Bhoyrul from the Sinclair Clinic here in Melbourne. It's 0.25mg topical which I commenced only a week ago. I'm going to start off taking it once every second day.

Do you take any medication? 
I’m on duta fina and minox and don’t see any difference and I lift like a maniac and take prot and creatine… 10-15 days in the showers that’s it…

I think I’m just gonna take dht blood test so we’ll know once and for all if it does anything. 

I started topical Dut about 1.5 months ago. Still early on, but I'm starting to see small improvements. The more miniaturized hairs shedded, and everything else feels stronger and healthier.

I'm also going back onto a heavy lifting routine, so we'll see what happens.

For reference @Melvin- Moderatordid a podcast with @win200 and he was on test 1gram a week while taking fina and duta, the blood work for dht came back at like 15.

So I doubt that 5gr of creating would do anything.

Yeah, I really doubt that that much creatine will have any impact.

Here is someone’s blood work with fina:

Here is one with duta:

It seems that creatine with fina is just not safe and really not worth it in my opinion, but on dut the creatine intake wasn’t able to increase dht level.

to be honest it makes me rethink now that I know that, even tho I’m on duta.

Is creatine really worth it at the end? I don’t think so.

im just gonna stop it I think or cycle it a couple of times a year.

This doc seems to think that concerns about hair loss are not a good reason to not take creatine:
