fin or dut for nw3? help a balding brother out

[avgsub5human]

Yo bros, I hopped on fin about 16 days ago with minoxidil 5% + vit d (cope) I'm 21 soon to be 22. I've forsure got norwood 3 mostly my temples fucked I got that mcdonalds M hardcore but my crown is mostly fine just minor thinning. I've done more research both here and online, from what I've understood is that the temples have higher DHT sensitivity which fin will block about 70%, question is, is it even enough to recover? since I'm already 21. Do I just insta hop on dut hope for the best or should I chill on fin, from what i've understood is dut is stronger but also higher side effects for people that are natty? So far 0 side effects from fin, so do i chill on fin since im natty or do i jump to dut to try to recover mcdonalds hairline even more, or should fin be enough? what you boys think? Obv 2 weeks on fin isnt enough to know side effects + progress I would just like to know if fin is enough for the temples generally speaking.

holyshit i type like a retard

 

[Laczekkk]

It depends but i would hop on duta...
Good luck

Dut mogs fin to oblivion stop taking fin and start taking dut

 

[avgsub5human]

ait thank you boys, I'ma try to get dut prescribed asap and pray for 0 side effects

 

[ThomasDeutsch]

dut + min asap
nw3 in ur early 20s is suifuel

 

[avgsub5human]

should I take fin for like a week while i hop on dut or nah? for the shedding and whatnot

If you're not taking androgens start with finasteride. The standard dosage is 1 mg per day. If hair loss continues (which it likely won't) then switch to dutasteride 0.25 mg twice a week. If you're using androgens take as much dutasteride as possible each day

is dut actually so bad for natties? It's kind of the only thing that makes me hesitant about dut

 

[avgsub5human]

gg, couldn't get dut prescribed in sweden

 

[appealisLAW]

isnt dut improved version of fin? i heard somewhere that certain amount of dut blocks dht almost 100%

point a gun to his head and he will prescribe it

it will simply be redundant and more expensive

yeah its supposed to nuke DHT

 

[avgsub5human]

so maybe fin + min isnt so much cope afterall? it just feels like dut would regrow the hairline whereas fin would just stop the balding, maybe i'm wrong tho

 

[Oreone]

dut would regrow the hairline

It only stops hair loss like fin if there is fluff left it will restore it but fin will also restore it

fin + min

Could you look at my post and lmk what should do? https://looksmax.org/threads/time-to-start-fin.1803012/

Not sure if you should start with dut tho, i’d do atleast 6 months of fin before going on dut but you can get it prescribed on mobidoctor, get an eu prescription and use it in any pharmacy in sweden. I’m 21 also from europe and thats the way I do it because both fin and dut is off label in my country so not even fin i could have get prescribed for hairloss

Im currently in the process of switchin which takes months of using the same drug at the same time and slowly increasing dut while lowering fin. I bought fin from dokteronline before but its a company prescribing you and selling the meds instantly so not sure if thats a valid one since it should be already used up at their store, also dokteronline is reaaally expensive

yea that'd make sense, i paid hella for 60 caps of 0,5mg dut. legit a fortune is mobi the same or do i need to actually book an apointment and have a video call about it?

is it needed for this kind of time to swap tho? I've seen so many mixed opinions about it, some just start dut the next day some people do it slowly. I'm guessing it would depend on how long u were on fin? I'm about a month on fin so I might just start dut when it arrives but I'm unsure. It'd be the best to still be on fin but I don't have the kind of time for this mcdonald hairline, even tho the process is slow.

Im paying 220 for 360 capsules at a compounding pharmacy which is eu based so the quality is top level, i could probably get 400 capsules from indiamart worst case scenario for 50-100 bux but i’d rather take something long term that is not indian, mobidoctor only gives you prescription you can use it in any pharmacy typcial prices for avodart in pharmacy is 30 euros for 30 pills.

About swapping i wouldnt even consider dut without atleast 6-12 months on fin but its your decision, switching cold turkey after a month is fine because fin never even had a chance to show its effects so you shouldn’t be scared of losing that

yea I hear you, I just wanna make sure I get some growth back and I don't wanna wait 6-12 months on fin incase it doesn't work out

you aint worried about customs and shit shipping meds into ur country? from indiamart etc? I just started with dokter since it feels like the most "safest" but in future ill prob get sick of paying this fucking amount for basic hair health (fin has same price even tho i get it from swedish doctor)

Also hows fin and dut working for u so far? were u like nw2-3 like me or are u just doing it for future proofing?

I said i dont buy from indiamart, i used to buy from a romanian reseller who got it into their country since they have loose custom rules and inside eu its easy to ship but i switched to eu grade instead so no worries on that anymore. Chance of fin not stopping your hairloss is sub 5%, i would give it a try worst that can happen is that you recede 20x slower than you would by default and if you do get sides its really easy to just stop compared to dut, nw 2-3 isn’t that insane. I’m currently nw1 with nw2-2.5 deep miniturization in the temples and after 2 years of fin i decided to try dut for a chance of thickening the miniturized hairs. Once your hairs are gone they are unlikely to grow back unless diffuse thinning but miniturized hairs can be reversed. If they won’t come back until lets say 2027 summer then atleast my hairloss is stablized and i can get a small HT thats all. You have to think long term not just blast pharma out of pure fear

I shouldve clarified I meant in general from stores that aint in ur country, but you u mean aslong as the shippers are inside eu its mostly fine?

There is no customs or duty inside of eu, my compounding pharmacy is in greece and i don’t live there i have to get it shipped to me
