Regular Member balmain Posted Friday at 11:47 PM Regular Member Share Posted Friday at 11:47 PM Hi I just had a hair transplant 8 days ago I’m switching from topical dutaseride to oral finasteride thoughts on also adding topical finasteride with the oral finasteride?

Senior Member FinallyHT Posted Monday at 01:52 PM Senior Member Share Posted Monday at 01:52 PM I had the same question. I would guess that adding top fin would help a tiny tiny bit in conjunction to oral fin. I read topical suppresses scalp dht a little more over oral. But others on the forum see no value doing both. Age: 40 Hairloss began at age 23. Oral Finasteride 1mg daily since 2006, Topical Minoxidil since 2012. Hair transplant 3,400 grafts 2019. Second hair transplant 2,400 grafts in 2023.

Senior Member Shadman Posted Monday at 01:54 PM Senior Member Share Posted Monday at 01:54 PM @balmain if you're already taking oral fin I don't think adding topical fin will actually benefit it would be simply overdoing 𝐄𝐮𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐱 / 𝐃𝐫.

Ya I’ve been wondering if it will work faster since it’s going on the scalp and works together with the oral medicine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I didn't try both. However, I tried oral and topical fin separately Edited 12 hours ago by Shadman 𝐄𝐮𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐱 / 𝐃𝐫.

Regular Member Andreas77 Posted 5 hours ago Regular Member Share Posted 5 hours ago Hey, I've tried both topical and oral. Oral works alot better, for both Fin and Min. Didn't try both at once, since topical would likely go systemic and I didn't want to risk overdosing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay then ya I’m hoping I get good results from the oral since I’ve always only done topical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
