question from a user
Your 'expert' Finasteride video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKum5L64cPk @ 2:07 Your 'expert' dudebro says serum DHT concentrations were 100 times lower in oral compared to topical. This is the study he referenced: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9297965/ However, the results clearly say As maximum plasma finasteride concentrations were >100 times lower, and reduction from baseline in mean serum DHT concentration was lower (34.5 vs. 55.6%), I.e., your expert dudebro can't even quote the key result of the abstract of a study correctly, let alone critique clinical studies, let alone give medical advice.
AlphaMD's Answer
He did misspeak, thank you for pointing that out.
Yes, DRUG concentrations were >100 less with the topical vs the oral version of finasteride.
As always, our YouTube channel is an informal venue, and those looking to seek TRT or any other treatment should consult with their own personal medical provider.
