Questions about Steroids and Finasteride

[downcrash]

I've heard so many different things about what steroids I can and can't take with Finasteride that my head is going to explode.
I figured I'd try and get opinions on my specific case.
I am taking Propecia for hairloss, which I think I experienced from previous steroid use. I want to take something that is compatible with my propecia. I've heard Deca, Winstrol, and Masteron are all no nos. I've heard mixed things about dbol. I understand that I can take test with the propecia.

Basically what is available to me, that I am interested in taking, is Deca, Wini, Test, Dbol, and possibly Finaplix. What can I stack with the test that will not interfere with the finasteride? I'd honestly like to just take some test and dbol or finaplix. Even if the finasteride doesn't counteract all hairloss effects with a specific steroid, I understand that's part of the game. I just don't want to be putting two things into my body, like say Deca and Finasteride, that work against each other. Any suggestions/info? Thanks.

oh god. alright ill start this off:
if you want to avoid hairloss dont take steroids. fina and winny are probably the WORST for hairloss.

just do a test cycle.. use finasteride .5mg e3d and nioxin shampoo... works great for me

I understand that steroids cause hairloss. This doesn't mean that I shouldn't do everything I can to minimize the effects of steroids on hair loss.

That's what I'm leaning towards. I want to stack it with something, but I really can't find something that I know is safe to use with the propecia.

just dont stack it... the test alone will give u like 20lbs

There are really only 2 options for you. One is EQ. Finasteride will not have any negative interaction with Eq included in your cycle. The oral that you could use would be T-bol if you wanted to kickstart. Both of those do not have any negative interaction with Finasteride. You could very well add the EQ with no additional effects in terms of hairloss but as already stated you could just use test only and keep the total androgen level lower than adding a 2nd compound to your stack. This would probably be even safer for your hairline. I think you are looking for an additional anabolic though and EQ would be your answer. Hope this helps.

keep it simple, test+fina or duta for 10-12or14 weeks, and go from there, if you lose hair then you know...

what would be even better if u ran short easter test so tht if u get sides u can drop it and get it out quicker for pct..

[bmit]

Yup, run short esters so you can drop them if you need to. Take 1 mg propecia a day. If you have balding in the crown area use Rogaine. Nizoral 2% shampoo helps.

Run a test prop only cycle using those ancillaries and you will then know where you stand.

Thanks. This is the answer I was looking for.

How about anavar? Does anyone know how anavar works with finasteride? I've read two different things. One saying that the finasteride will inhibit gains. The other stated that they pretty much will have no effect on each other.

[JiGGaMaN]

ok finasteride prevents testosterone from converting to DHT. it will only help with test, not with other compounds. the following are synthesized directly from DHT and finasteride will not help at all:
Primobolan
Winstrol
masteron
anavar

I got it. Sorry I should have worded my question differently. I know propecia only stops the conversion of test into dht. But I've heard certain steroids (deca, wini) are actually bad to use with propecia (They make the hair loss sides even worse). What I want to know is: Is anavar going to interfere with my use of finasteride?

nothings going to interfere with it, its just not going to work. also, im not sure who told you deca and finasteride causes a problem- it doesnt.

[DrSauce99]

Ive run em all with finasteride. No hairloss just preventative... I quit finasteride tho cuz it made me feel crappy

[molecule]

I am using Test + EQ + Menabol (Stanzol tabs 2mb x 20 ED) Taking fin every day. This is my second cycle. When i did my first cycle i had used winny for 6 weeks along with Fin and did not see any hairloss even though i have been prone to hairloss for last 4 yrs. I dont think taking stanzol (winny) along with Fin increases the hairloss or anything. For me it did a good job of preventing hair loss.

[chicmagnet]

Works for me I've used it with all my cycles(test only)and I take it constantly with my hrt. I don't really see it as part of a stack tho.

Jigga I know your a good man (I read here but never post) but your a little off on your advice about the finasteride and deca partner...I know it is not a huge difference maker but it can cause an issue. Nandrolone is significantly harsher than the compound the 5-alpha reductase enzyme reduces it to. If you use finasteride deca will not reduce it to it's gentler form and so over time with the cycle hairloss can kind of creep up. It makes deca harsher on the hairline not to reduce it.

I do see where your coming from with your advice though. If you use deca without test your asking for trouble...so that being said if I was gonna run both I'd rather use finasteride than not because the DHT is much worse than the nandrolone on the hairline. I'd rather use finasteride and keep deca in it's more androgenic form than not use it and let the test wreak havoc which I believe will be substantially worse. This is why if your worried about hairloss and your gonna use finasteride to cover all corners you need to stay away from the nandralone and use a different anabolic....which means you can barely use anything until you give in and shave the head....LOL I'm still on the winning side now but I know the time will come when the hair will go and I gotta suck it up.
