Title: Finasteride + LL?
Post by: Frogger on January 12, 2021, 02:43:59 AM

Anyone done LL while also taking finasteride 1mg for hair loss?

Would it be ok to take while lengthening?

I don’t think it’s a major problem but for sure it doesn’t help bone growth because you’re actually decreasing your testosterone effect on bone growth, this one some rare times is even used for improve osteogenesis.
But if a girl can do LL idk why you should have any problem.
Maybe if your ossification will be too slow you can think to give up with it for a while and use something like minoxidil, in many patients it’s fine.

I did.  Was disclosed on all the forms and to the doctors, they never said anything.
