Benji/Bryan: Any comments on Dut and memory loss (Topicals & Shampoos)

posted by benji, 28.06.2009, 07:25

type 1 alpha five reductase (of which dutasteride is supposed to inhibit roughly 51% of at .5 mgs a day) is indeed located in the brain.


You'd still have about half of it at that dosage theoretically, which would be more than a woman would have. That enzyme might do more in the brain than just convert T to DHT though..........

Ive read of some guys complaining of "brain fog" on dutasteride on these forums before.



We *have* a biological precendent of men who have no alpha five type 2 enzyme in nature (pseudohermaphrodites), and post-puberty they have normal lives by all accounts, so finasteride should be relatively safe.


One really might stick to just .5 mgs a day of dutasteride and no more than that IMO. That ought to be plenty if they are going to take that drug.
