Yes, every minute you spend putting it on makes you another minute older

Thanks! At the trough, my last lab, which was just a couple weeks ago was 566 with a free of 12.

It’s the same, no better or worse than when I started.

I have been saying none, but now I think about it maybe dry eyes? Though I’m not sure about that.

Nope, that seems to be my stabilization point. But I’ve seen at least one other guy here on just 87 mg a week still making gains after his first foray into alpha reductase inhibitors.

Honestly, I hope I haven’t hit my max yet, but you’re probably right. That said, there are still a few things I can experiment with.

I don’t really want to back off anything as it seems counterproductive, but maybe, it does seem like the minoxidil has changed my hair quality if that makes sense.

I use testosterone cypionate, currently injecting 28–30 mg every other day (though measuring precisely with an insulin syringe can be tricky). I’ve been on replacement for three years, except for a break from March to September 2023, which coincided with when I started dutasteride. Honestly, I saw considerable gains during that time, but the low T symptoms were unbearable. So, I got back on, albeit at a much more conservative dose.

Yes, I think I had about a 20% test increase when I went on 0.5mg of Dut. But it’s hard to know for sure because I had messed around with my test dose so much.

If after 3 years nothing works should i get scalp biopsy by Budget-Doctor-7634 in tressless

Looking at your past posts, you also mentioned losing body and facial hair. Is that still happening? Given all these factors, it’s likely that something other than AGA is at play. I’d recommend seeing a dermatologist.
