hi, im new to the forum and heres some of my stats
Age: 21
Height: 6ft
Weight: 12 st
at the minute im taking Finasteride 1mg (1 a day) because i have a pretty big receding hairline. my hair is much more important to me than gaining size quickly since i wouldnt look right at all without my hair.
anyway, im thinking of doing my first cycle, and was just wondering what steroid would affect hairloss the least? if i took it in conjuction with the Finasteride 1mg.
would i need to take a stronger dosage of finasteride, or would the finateride simply not work?
Primo,anavar, and low dose test, ie: test prop.1ml every 3-4 days is the best if your worried about hair loss. deca is another good one, but alot of people say you shouldnt use deca and propecia together can make it worse apprently?????
you could do,
test E 250mg/week
primo 3ml/week
anavar 50-100mg/ed
take 1mg finistrade through whole cycle, shouldnt have any hair issues with that mate
Apparently the worst offenders for hairloss are; Dbol, Winny, Tren and Anadrol. And DHT derivatives like Anavar and Primobolan are to be avoided.
The best are Deca (not too sure about this mind, someone else chime in here), Turinabol and Equipose.
Testosterone can be controlled with a DHT blocker, Proscar - Zinc - Nizoral etc
Finasteride can be expensive, I have some and have been told I can get away with half a pill per day - but perhaps only as this gives me enuff to get thru a 1 week cycle, you may have plenty for 1mg/day.
yeah MPB does affect some of my family. they reckon you follow the hairline of your mothers father...thats what my doctor said and he seems to be right!
if i was to do a cycle i wouldnt want to neccessarily go on a 8 - 12 week cycle. just about a month if i could. my friend has been on sust for 5 weeks only and put on a good bit of size already, and his diet hasnt got **** on mine.
-what steroid least affects hair loss? and
-what else what need to be taken to prevent further hairloss?
are any cycles that last about a month any good, which doesnt affect hair loss?
My hairloss is mainly thinning around the crown mate,its still not too bad on the sides.
My first course was 3 weeks superdrol, and second was 6 weeks dianabol only. I didn't notice any accelerated hairloss using either of these. I then started using sust,within 3 - 4 weeks I could see hair loss was getting alot worse. I finished that course and thats when I started using finasteride,can't say i've noticed any regrowth but it hasn't got any worse.
My hair has been receding slightly since I was 18, 28 now and after a few cycles it is still there, when I started I tried the finasteride route as well but quickly found out the hair loss thing is not something you really have to worry too much about.
Finasteride is also bad for someone young like yourself.
i would not take finasteride, that sh1t is russian roulette, the people ive known who have used fina have had serious ongoing problems, its only a workaround and when they came off it, some started to lose a bit more hair again and had other health issues

Interesting link mate, have you taken finasteride and what sides have you personally experienced. I've been using it for about 7 months and haven't had any problems but after looking at that site it looks like problems could occur after use?

ive never took it myself nor would I. I just know people personally who have.
Im not saying everyone will get problems cos i dont know, thats the thing that steared me away from it, noone knows.
A friend of mine who is also a stage competitor took fina years ago and never had any problems, he only took it for 2 months though throughout his cycle, i would certainly never ever take it for 7 months.
There issues never started during the time they was taking it, it was when they stopped it all went downhill.

Thanks mate I'll have to have a think about this stuff, the docs don't seem to think theres a problem with longer term usage but I guess there not always right. Thanks again
i went to see a specialist about my hair when i was receding alot and he said there were possible symptoms such as erectile dysfunction, but these would occur within the first few weeks of taking finasteride. he said if you kept taking them it would go away.
baracuss, thats what ive heard, i personally only know 1 other person besides myself whos taken it and they didnt have any sides either.
i have to say, since i mentioned it on this site i was REALLY unaware of how many people were taking the stuff.
will taking finasteride affect the amount you lift in the gym? if you dont take steroids that is? that might sound silly but i would like to know all the same.
There are soo many differing opinions . . . you have to make ur own mind up i think. Personally I am sceptical about the side effects of fina, when i first started using to block dht from test I did notice my erections weren't as 'reliable', although they have been ok since. I certainly wouldn't use it off cycle and I only use 0.5mg per day whilst on. Millions of people in the US are using this drug and I think only a few are effected, probably those congregated on the propecia forum, although you could be one of those, its a risk for sure. The bottom line is if your effected by mpb you are going to lose your hair, introducing androgenic compounds into your body isnt going to help matters, and all these products only offer some help and protection. Depends how important your hair is, but if you start using steroids you've got to be prepared that you may accelerate the process of mpb despite what you counteract it with. Makesure you monitor your current rate of shedding now, and then when on cycle so you can compare.
