Avodart and DHT levels. (Drugs & Medications)
» This question has been asked many many times. From the second set of graphs

Sure, but only if you take an INCREASED DOSE (more than just a single Avodart capsule) once every 1, 2, or 3 weeks. To get the same amount of DHT suppression as taking an Avodart every day, you'd have to take 7 Avodart capsules once a week, or 14 Avodart capsules once every two weeks, or 21 Avodart capsules once every 3 weeks. See how it works? You still have to get the same average dose of dutasteride, to achieve the same average level of DHT suppression.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. There's not much "inertia" after taking just a SINGLE Avodart capsule, because it obviously hasn't been building-up in the bloodstream for several weeks or months. But the "inertia" that you think you see after you've been taking it for a long time comes from the ACCUMULATED amount of the drug in your bloodstream, not any one single capsule that you happen to take on a given day.

Because one Avodart capsule every 3 days is NOT enough! Not enough to achieve the intended level of serum DHT reduction, anyway (about ~90% or so).
Dutasteride is a DOSE-DEPENDENT drug. You get increasingly more DHT suppression as the dose increases, thanks to the fact that it hangs around in the bloodstream so long.
