Regular Member SoSoz Posted April 17, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 17, 2023 I watched latest HRN podcast with Dr Sergio Vano and he mentioned finasteride every other month that there was study comparing finasteride daily 1mg vs finasteride 1mg EOM, and that the maintenance therapy was almost the same effectiveness. Anyone has tried this approach? Would this not cause some dangerous fluctuations in hormone levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted April 17, 2023 Administrators Share Posted April 17, 2023 I don't see the point of doing this. I think consistent low-dose makes more sense.

Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 17, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 17, 2023 Finasteride has a short half life so this makes no sense to me. dutasteride has a much longer half life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is after taking finasteride every day at 1mg for 1 year : https://www.jaad.org/article/S0190-9622(20)31928-9/fulltext Idk if it is effective to directly begin with 1 every month.
