    yeah usually for men you get it at like .5mg or 1mg. im on it solo as a t blocker and i take it at 5mg with a lot of estrogen as well. so theyre saying TEN MG FOR CHUDS

      It makes sense, testosterone is what causes male-pattern baldness. I didn't realize it could be taken in large-enough amounts to block T, that's pretty cool!

          I've been taking it at like 2.5-5mg for hair because it's cheaper in large doses and I've been lazy with cutting them.

          Is this why my skin soft af 😳 :blob-no-thoughts: 🏳️‍⚧️

            yes probably. i also take estrogen and progesterone for t blocking so you might still have enough T if thats what youre going for. mines like 80pg/nl or something idr men are usually around 400-500 at minimum

            yep, dht is the hormone primarily responsible for androgenization of the skin. also because more testosterone is available in your system since it's not being converted to dht, more of it gets converted into estradiol. the combination means taking sufficient finasteride/dutasteride probably puts your skin and hair into an estrogen-dominant state. of course, supplementing estrogen will still make your skin even softer but you'll probably notice the shift in your skin, hairline, and body odor.

          I just learned about DHT and finasteride yesterday when I read an article linked on here about how what is essentially a congenital DHT deficiency causes boys to delay genital formation until puberty. Not super relevant but figured I'd share.
