tren, hair loss, finasteride, and gains

**Test pilot** · 01-04-2012, 01:31 PM

So i started a tren ace/enth cycle at 250mg/wk with sustanon at 250/wk and eq at 300/wk.
I knew hair loss was a likely side and genetically i was predisposed. I ran a test e cycle a couple years ago and didnt have issues, but this time its REALLY noticeable. Anyway, it is what it is. I was going to go bald eventually anyway.
I have 2 questions: will taking finasteride (propecia) or dutasteride (avodart) negatively affect my gains? I have read some users on here who really felt they had lost alot.
2: will the hair possibly/probably grow back after i finish my cycle, or am i stuck?

Tren does not undergo 5a-reductase, so finasteride won't help with that.

If you care about your hair, just lay off the Tren.

It may grow back to an extent.

Thanks for the clear answer!

If the tren doesnt metabolize to DHT, what is the mechanism by which it causes hair loss?

Anything that activates the androgen receptor can cause hair loss. DHT is just the main naturally occurring culprit, as it is more androgenic than test.
Tren is 5X as androgenic as test, so it doesn't need to convert to anything to rape your hair.

I tried to run tren once and it ****ed up my hair. I was losing hair like crazy, it was scary. I just stopped taking tren for me it is not worth it. The hair stopped falling at the same speed after I stopped, but until today it is noticeably thinner and still falls more than before the cycle. Tren probably turned on some hair loss genes on me. I'd say be careful with it if you want to keep your hair... That thing will make you look like Mr. Clean if you're pre-disposed to hair loss.

I figured it would all fall out eventually anyway, i might as well be huge too! Im actually only concerned because my wife doesnt know im on and actually might divorce me if i get caught...
