Probably the quickest explanation is Finastride is a slightly less potent form of Dutasteride, as it bonds with 1 type of 5a and Dutasteride bonds with 2 types of 5a to prevent DHT. I believe it's a "your mileage may vary" deal, depending on what is causing the DHT... or if it is DHT causing male pattern baldness.
At what point did my life go Looney Tunes? How did it happen? Who's to blame?... Batman, that's who. Batman! It's always been Batman! Ruining my life, spoiling my fun!
