is it worth taking dutasteride at 17?

[Deleted member 148083]

I have dutasteride and oral minoxidil (My dad is bald)
Should I just take the minoxidil only? Does the dutasteride ruin potential beard growth? What should I do?
Advice would be so helpful, thank you

My hairline is good, its just a preventative measure. Is 17 too early? do i just take minoxidil for like eyebrows, hair thickness and stuff?

Start finesteride for a bit then yes

Ask your dad when did he started balding and you’ll have a pretty good estimate of when you should start worrying about it, mine was balding since the age of 18, i started balding at 17 and hopped on finasteride at 19 because i didn’t know about it till then. Unless you have bad acne or hair thinning its the best to avoid these meds until it makes sense. And yes removing your dht could slow down beard maturization.

Yes, take it im, 17 too and ive nuked my dht to oblivion, would do again 10/10

Your dick is unlikely to grow more anyway

should do only topical first tbf, dht has importance during puberty and younger years. ur better of with topical fin and topical minox blend of sorts, also avoid derma rolling and possibly use tretinoin which helps absorption rate
