I get your point, brother, but personally I’ve had great success running Dutasteride (1mg/day) instead of Fin, even during heavy blasts that are notorious for shedding hair. My hairline actually stayed intact … if anything, it got thicker during that phase.
For context, I was running Test, Tren, and Mast totaling over 2.5g per week, not even counting orals I pulsed here and there pre-workout. Some weeks were pretty wild … around 1g of Mast, 1.4g of Tren, and Test sitting lower at 400mg.
(24 weeks)
Now, genetics definitely play a role I’m not really prone to baldness …but even when I cruise on Test + Mast or Test + Primo, I still notice a bit of shedding (nothing major).
So yeah, combining Minoxidil, Dut or Fin, and maybe RU58841 (topical) could be a real game changer for keeping your hair on cycle IMHO.(even if running DHT on cycle and specially if running it topical)
Just my 2 cents, brother man.
