Mesterolone 50mg daily and hair loss – any monitoring strategies?

Posted by grinder265 in Safety & Side Effects - 1 points, 0 comments.

I started 50 mg of Mesterolone a couple of months ago to lower my SHBG and get a bit more free testosterone for my training. I’ve noticed the hair on my scalp getting thinner, especially at the temples, after about three months. The hair hasn’t completely disappeared, but it feels noticeably finer.

I did a quick check of my free testosterone and SHBG levels; free testosterone was up a bit but SHBG was lower as expected. I haven’t seen anynale lab changes in liver enzymes so far. The main concern for me is whether the androgenic hair loss is a Prin and how long it might continue if I keep the dose.

I’d also like to know if anyone has used M lavish with periodic blood work to track testosterone suppression or any other hormone shifts, and how often they do those tests. Also, what’s your experience with dosing duration? Do you taper off or cut down to 25 mg after the first few months? Any tips on MCU or supplements to help mitigate hair thinning while on this?
