    does it really affect gains when used on cycles?

    There is enough evidence to support a slight hindrance in gains. But who really cares? Anyone considering this product, would be far better off suffering a minor loss in muscle than a minor to major loss of doo.

    true

    finasteride blocks the enzyme that converts Testoterone to DHT which is a more potent anabolic but if you are prone to MPB, take it, worth whatever the reduced gains are

    Almost no DHT will ever reach the muscle though. Any reduction in gains will be minimal and hair is a nice thing to have.

    TRUE... DHT cannot enter skeletal muscle.. it gets destroyed.

    What Finasteride will do thought is boost up your TEST levels (NICE) and also Estrogen levels (GRRRR)....

    Elevated Estrogen will make u look bloated, and softer.

    I used finasteride for approximately 1 1/2 months at .5mg ed and It gave me slight gyno in my left pec (got slight fattiness and pea sized nodules)... never touched finasteride again, I think it wiped out my dht levels too low...... my suggestion is if finasteride is used on cycle then use low does letro (.25 ed or eod) or adex at .5mg eod...... Estrogen levels rise very fast while on cycle with finasteride......
