Hi Guys,
Besides the folks at lipoxidil, is there any commercial producer making topical dutasteride?
Would like to try some if the price is more economical.
Thanks.

5ar VS androgen inhibition
I know that Spiro is an anti-androgen. Is my following understanding correct? Propecia prevents the formation of DHT by attaching itself to 5ar so that it can't join with T in forming DHT. But Spiro nuetralises the remaining DHT that "slips thru" from what the Propecia did not prevent (as propecia r...

My question is can I take both together in the same regimen or should I alternate?
Also, is it good for example to take 1 g every day or 3-4 g at once but only a couple times a week.
Thanks!
