  Does Duestricide Have The Same Sides As Propescia?

 Does Duestricide Have The Same Sides As Propescia?


Just like the title says:

I like that propescia made my hair fuller and grow back in most places, but it made me feel like SHIT. Totally depressed ALL the time. So much so I had to stop taking it and now i feel a million times better.

But now my hair is starting to thin and fall out again. I'm using Nizoral 2% and saw palmetto oil at night, but it's not enough.

I'm prone to mpb .. so i need something else.

Anyone know if duestricide has the same fx as finestricide?

Yup, pretty much. Here is something I wrote previously about the side effects of dutasteride.

Risks/Side Effects

In terms of side effects related to the use of dutasteride, it appears that all are related to its action as a reductase inhibitor and the lack of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) circulating in the system of the user when using this drug. There are no toxicity issues related to the use of dutasteride and there have been seemingly no serious related side effects to the long term use of the drug in males (8, 9).

Despite the lack of long term side effects for users there is one significant side effect that may affect some males. This is namely temporary sterility (7). This effect does appear to be only temporary with no long term damage to the ability of the user to produce healthy sperm capable of procreation once administration of the drug ceases. However users hoping to bear children will likely have to discontinue their use of the drug to enhance their chances of success. Dutasteride is so successful at causing temporary sterility in males that it has been studied as part of a combination of drugs that could be used as male birth control. However these studies remain in their preliminary stages. In any case, many steroid users will already be experiencing temporary sterility due to their use of anabolic steroids so this will not be an additional burden for the vast majority of users.

As for the possible side effects related to the inhibition of DHT the most frequently reported side effect from use of a reductase inhibitor such as dutasteride, as reported both in the available research as well as anecdotally among anabolic steroid users, is a reduction in libido (2). This is due to DHT playing a significant role in sex drive with it also being found in high concentrations in male sex organs playing a role in their proper function. To a lesser extent some users report that their strength is reduced when using dutasteride and this can also be directly related to the drop in DHT present in the user. Similarly this may also result in a small reduction in muscle mass depending on the amount inhibited and the individual body chemistry of the user.

DHT exhibits the ability to compete for the opportunity to bind to the aromatase enzyme. If the amount of DHT is reduced this could cause an increase in the chance that estrogenic side effects (such as water retention, gynocomastia, etc.), due to less competition for the aromatase enzyme, could arise. Aromatizable compounds such as testosterone therefore have a greater likelihood to attach to this enzyme and estrogen levels could increase. While this may not be a significant problem for most users an increase in estrogenic side effects may be experienced by some who include dutasteride in their cycle(s) so greater attention may be needed to be paid to such concerns.

My hair is starting to thin pretty good along the hairline. I'm planning on running a Tren/Prop/Adex cycle soon and was contemplating using dutast during to prevent and possibly regrow some of what has been lost.

Did you see any regrowth/results for receeding hairline? Also what dose were you taking/ what is an effective dose during cycle to reap the benefits of DHT inhibition without the loss of libido and feeling like shit sides?

what about using a lower dose than the recommended 1mg/day?

I'm not a big guy (5'8 170) so maybe if i used a smaller daily or the same dose over a few days? What do you think?

Yes, many use less then 1mg a day. At most I would use .5mgs a day and many can get away with running .5mgs every other day. Lower doses should still be effective while not leading to near as severe side effects for many.

Oh man that's the best news i've heard in a long time.

So would the research-ology brand be better, b/c it's a real pain to break up the propesica pills - never mind the cost.

How much liquid would it be of the reasearch? 15ml eod then for starters?
