Avodart questions...

Thanks!

From what I understand the dosage determines whether you're going to cease hair loss or regrow hair. Every other day seems to stop hair loss, while every day seems to promote regrowth. I took it every day for a while but have switched to every other day to save money. I had a transplant so I cannot state whether avodart regrow hair for me, but I can say that it ended my hairloss. I can't even pull hairs out unless I tug really hard. and thankfull I haven't had any side effects either.

the only logical reason someone would have for switching from fin to dut is that fin was not supressing enough dht and you want something stronger(and dutasteride does do the job nicely)but only when taken every day can you expect any results that are better than finasteride if you were taking that every day.

the only time i would reccomend taking days off with dut is after you have been taking it for at least 6 months to a year.unlike fin(with a short half life)dutasteride has a rather long half life and it tends to build up in the system and after a while of taking it,i believe one can go a few months with every other day dosing and see no difference in effectivness as long as after those couple months they then return to daily dosing.

i have used dut for close to a year now and can say for sure it has thickened up my hair and definetly stopped my hairloss in its tracks.the only downside is on my hairline.i was disappointed that it did nothing in that area other than thicken up the exhisting hairs,it grew no new hairs like it did on my vertex and mid scalp.both those areas are completely regrown and no longer is hairloss noticable in those areas.

But there is a difference between propecia and avodart...avodart blocks both types of dht while propecia only blocks one.

This may be why some people respond to propecia while others dont.
