    5mg/day finasteride while on Trt.

    My questions are for any of you guys who are running 5mg/day while on TRT.

    1. Did your current trt dosage remain the same while on finasteride?

    2. If it changed did you increase or decrease it and why?

    3. If you increased your test dosage did it diminish the benefit of blocking DHT?

    From all of my current research it seems to me the best protocol for those of us that need finasteride at 5mg/day to take an AI, and "possibly" up our trt dosage slightly. This is assuming that increasing test would not negate the DHT blocking benefits you're getting from the finasteride.

    Thanks guys

    Can you specify or elaborate on your need for 5mg of finasteride daily?

    Well wishes your way. Hopefully others will offer expert insights. My finasteride usage (in part) lead me to TRT.... I don't see why the testosterone dosage would need much adjustment. Best advice would be to stay consistent with your TRT and dose as low as you're comfortable with. Anti-estrogen medicines are good to have on hand...they're not advantageous & I don't see any reason/rational to increase testosterone w/ AI (pray you'll won't need an AI and/or SERM...go as long as you're able without).
