I have a question: are there any contraindications associated with taking propecia (finasteride 1 mg./day) ? Propecia is prescribed for hair loss and I think acts as a DHT "blocker." Not sure what the ramifications of taking it concurrently while cycling. Please advise if you know anything about this. Thanks!    | ||

Get Proscar its cheaper and is still finasteride. Don't take finasteride with deca, and it works best (or maybe only) with Test. I use stacks of dbol/test/eq in high dosages with little to no hair loss - I attribute this to finasteride. ------------------ For a good time click here: Search and Profiles (300Kleens Board)  | ||

Have you thought getting something local like minoxidil 5% ? - gets rid of the dht but under the scalp only... [This message has been edited by nexus7 (edited April 06, 2001).] | ||

quote: no. it's a specific and a competitive inhibitor of type 2 5a-reductase, an intracellular enzyme that converts test to DHT....basically finasteride is to 5a-reductase what arimidex is to aromatase ------------------ | ||
