And if it does not, how much propecia should I take to prevent hairloss?

Nah man. Finasteride is a reductase inhibitor. You have an enzyme in your body called 5-Alpha reductase (type II), which converts testosterone to DHT - the cause of hairloss in alot of cycles. Finasteride reduces this conversion caused by the enzyme, effectively preventing or slowing your hairloss.

In a nutshell its not going to directly interfere with your cycle, do a search through the forums, and you'll find many cycles that have incorporated finasteride.

Quote:

For the most part the side effects associated with the use of finasteride are relatively minor and will not jeopardize the general health of the user. It appears that all of the reported side effects are related to its action as a reductase inhibitor and the lack of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) circulating in the system of the user when using this drug. Toxicity is not a concern as even with extremely large doses run for long durations (eighty milligrams per day for a total of three months in one study [5]) no adverse reactions are observed.

Quote:

The most common side effect reported with the administration of finasteride is seemingly sexual dysfunction and/or a reduction in sex drive (6). This is due to DHT playing a significant role in sex drive with it also being found in high concentrations in male sex organs playing a role in their proper function.

Thanks bro,
I have read that dutasteride is more powerful than finasteride, so can i take the former instead during my cycle along with rogain? and How much per day?
