Would I need to increase my finasteride dosage according to my test dose?

Which 5AR inhibitor are you referring and what is your reason for taking it? MPB or BPH?

I take finesteride for MPB.

I believe there are studies that conclude any more than 1mg of Finasteride per day is no more as effective and pretty much wasted. Don't ask me to provide a link to the study as unfortunately don't have it. Merely remember reading up on it somewhere.

1mg per day is suffice.

for MPB you are correct. maximum 5ar inhibition is somewhere between 5-10mg but for intents of MPB anything over 1mg did not produce any better results. only thing that came of it was increased occurence of side effects.
