    Looking for DHT blocker other than propecia

    Can you guys give me some suggestions that are known to work as being good DHT blockers to take along with my TRT.

    Anything that is an actual DHT blocker is bad. Stick with topical.

    I was actually considering an ultra-low dose of dutasteride, but any dose of these stops me (or anyone) from donating blood (causes birth defects if blood is given to someone pregnant) and I don't really want to get a script for a phlebotomy to throw good blood away (and I'm not doing it myself). I've donated many gallons.

    Hope someday soon someone develops a safer solution than the sterides. Until then I guess it's topical for me as well.

    When you say topical what are you referring too? Like rogaine?

    ^^^ Yes, I use Nizoral shampoo that has helped a lot and just started using minoxidil foam. I had another form but didnt like it, made my hair stiff so I didnt use it. I also use
    Ginger Anti-Dandruff Shampoo.

    It depends on where you go. Some places will take it some wont. If it's just TRT I would just say no but they also probably have access to your medical records. I know I tried about 6 months ago to make an appointment and they called me back to cancel it because they saw I was on TRT. How did they know???? No way I told them and last time I donated was 30 years ago.
