Does anyone have any first hand experience taking test with a DHT-inhibitor like Proscar or Propecia?

Did you make good progress or did the Proscar/Propecia cut into your gains? Did it at least save your hair?

Hey Joe, according to medicine finasteride will prevent your prostate from getting huge (and hey, mass is mass...lol) but the DHT receptor sites at the scalp are slightly different and the drug has a significant but lesser effect on saving hair. You might note slightly lower strength gains during a cycle with finasteride, since DHT reportedly improves neurologic efficiency as well as making you horny(er). Since finasteride decreases DHT conversion, it stands to reason that you might get more bang for your buck. Finasteride is pretty benign without major health risks. My advice? Take 2.5mg (a split 5mg Proscar tab) every day, cycling or not. By weight, proscar is a lot cheaper than propecia. Am I right? Get huge Joe.
