For Androgenetic alopecia, Dute 0.5 helps reduce DHT levels, which is the main cause of hair thinning, so it is meant to slow hair loss and improve density, not worsen it when taken as prescribed. Being sexually active does not increase DHT in a way that worsens hair loss, so you do not need to stop normal sexual activity. Continue your treatment (including Morr F 5%) regularly, and follow up with your doctor, as results take a few months and need consistent use.

  1. Effect on Hair Loss
    Dutasteride can potentially help with hair loss since it reduces dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which contributes to androgenetic alopecia in men.

  2. Sexual Activity and DHT
    Being sexually active does not necessitate cessation due to elevated DHT levels. Sexual activity doesn't directly increase DHT; continue as comfortable. For concerns about DHT or hormone levels, consult your healthcare provider.
