I have heard/read that Spiro is available here in the US, where as Androcur is not, the FDA will not approve it because It can have more intense side effects, although it is generally considered 10x more effective!

Spiro works well, and yes... is prescribed in the US.

QuoteAlso yes 17B is 17B whether generic or not, unless its that finedestrine stuff which acually blocks the changing of T into DHT also Not available in the US

Sure it is. It's sold as "Propecia" for hair loss, and "Proscar" (and generics) for prostate problems.

Estradiol 17B and finasteride are completely different drugs.

I get that they are different, but did not know they had legal US counterparts!! You learn something new every day.  TY
