What is the explanation for the people cured from dutasteride, or the person who had 10 good days on finasteride?

Basically from what I've gathered, while on finasteride the body produces more androgen receptors (or possibly makes your receptors more sensitive) in order to get as much DHT as possible. Once you quit finasteride the influx in DHT puts your HPT axis into shock and your body doesnt know how to...

Could you make a new thread in the PFS section about restarting low-dose finasteride?

Think about it this way, if dropping our DHT down helps our body give us improved mental clarity, erections, etc why wouldn't it also help with improved bile acid synthesis, i.e. improved digestion. If we can use just the right amount of finasteride to help our body try balance itself out...

The guy that said he was cured for 10 days before reverting back because of Finasteride is an interesting case. Maybe he took too high of a dose, perhaps going back on at like 0.125 mg would have been better for him. It's a balancing act trying to get your DHT to a range where your body is...

The problem with mega-dosing zinc is that it'll help temporarily, if done on and off for a short while. Eventually however, once the zinc stores in your body start to fill up, your DHT will start to increase. So it's a temporary solution. Small doses of finasteride on the other hand shouldnt...

@IHateFin Very interesting, recently I tried mega-dosing zinc which is known to cause a drop in DHT at high doses, and ive noticed a big improvement. There was a thread from a couple years back where someone said this helped them: A new protocol I have been experimenting with, it can be used for...

I've read that the reason we crash after coming off Finasteride is that our body wasnt able to cope with the influx of DHT, causing our HPTA axis to get messed up. So we've got way too much DHT floating around in our body... Is micro-dosing propecia, to get our DHT down to a level our body is...

I was having good results with NAC, potassium, magnesium and copper... until I started getting diarrhea. I went back to a PFS feeling since I wasnt retaining anything I digested. Even now I've got loose stools and I'm not feeling as good as before. I was taking 400mg of magnesium and thought...

Nope, since Scenes wasnt using any histidine originally and he recovered - I thought I'd try just Cysteine.

People are recommending the HCL versions but I've got good results from just supplement versions. Im using: Triple Magnesium Complex 400mg Potassium Gluconate 595mg (Only 99mg of potassium so I add Tomato juice for extra potassium) NAC 600mg Copper 2mg If its not supposed to work maybe I'm...

@Scenes I've been using potassium, copper, magnesium and NAC (cysteine) together and i feel much better than before. Although my heart-rate is a little increased and my body temperature feels slightly warmer than before, what do you think about moving on to the GHK-cu regimine you're doing? Is...

Sorry I misread some stuff... I'll just blame the brainfog. In that case I'm going to try Copper + magnesium + potassium + methionine, + selenium + vitamin D because all that stuff is readily available in supplement stores. Is there any information for the ratios, how much of each is...

I have PFS and found that I felt slightly better on zinc, but am looking to feel even better. I'm going to try experiment with NAC Cysteine, Copper, Electrolytes, and eat some naturally testosterone boosting foods and see how I feel. Cysteine + Copper worked for @Scenes so I'm going to see what...

@gbolduev I've experimented with raising and lowering my DHT levels to see what category of PFS I fit into, and I've noticed Im a better responder to zinc. If zinc makes me feel better would I fit the standard PFS case or do you think my zinc finger has been upregulated? SO dexamethasone +...
