    finesteride gyno

    ok so this past cycle took a little toll on the back of my head so im purchasing finesteride. i have been reading that finesteride may cause gyno. is it advised to take 10 mg of nolva ed?? or is a prolonged use of nolva bad??

    i don't recall hearing that finasteride will cause gyno, but i am no expert. I have been using finasteride throughout my cycle and I have had no gyno problems at all.

    also, again I'm no expert, but I believe that anabolics will mainly accelerate baldness towards the top/front of your head. i think that these hair follicles are the ones affected by DHT and not the hair on the sides or back of your head. i guess it all depends on the individual and how you define the "back of your head".

    also shampoos with nizoral (1% or 2%) may help reduce some of the balding effects of steroids as well. i think they sell this in most pharmacies, depending on where you live.

    there are a lot of posts on hair loss in the AR SPA forums for this site... check them out some time.

    good luck.

    Finasteride will cause gyno or should I say can cause. They work by stopping DHT conversion - which will convert to estrogen instead (without an AI). Gyno can result. If you read any web site on hair loss, there are dudes with gyno and belly fat from taking finasteride. They sound fairly depressed!
