Is it really true? If so, for someone prone to hairloss and needs finasteride during an androgenic cycle, deca couldn't possibly be included in that cycle, can it? Thanks.    | ||

Yeah it's true bro.Finasteride basically converts deca to full strength nandrolone on the scalp ACCELERATING hair loss,so don't combine the two. | ||

Correct (for most people). Deca can be 5-alpha reduced just like testosterone. Testo is converted to DHT which is worse for the hair. Deca is converted to DHN which is better for the hair than unconverted deca. Therefore, you want the 5-alpha reductase enzyme to do this conversion. Taking finasteride inhibits this enzyme.  |
