» Dutasteride is a DOSE-DEPENDENT drug. You get increasingly more DHT

Hi Bryan,
So what would you say if at max. I took a capsule (0.5mg) on Monday, Wed, Fri, Sun, in other words, rest one day in btw. do you think Im wasting my time and money. What about resting 2 days.
How can you be so sure of your statement and what do you say about the graphs posted above then?
Cheers
