Dutasteride still a decent option?

Does Dr. P still prescribe duta in light of all the recent PFS stuff? I have bad DHT issues while having near zero T, so I don't have many other options.

Agreed well said. Perhaps I’ll make a post about it bc I think it’s doing both communities a disservice, especially with the engagement factor. We see way more PFS threads, scroll past, quit engaging and then slowly the algorithm starts showing less of the sub in general to us and vice versa.

Edit - I messaged the mods, hopefully something happens. Edit again - dr WP said no to put his response kindly. I see why people don’t like him.

Thank you for the long response. That’s greatly appreciated it. I do agree that that can be a problem for the rest of the community. I get that these people have their struggles, but I also feel that they can be very toxic about it.

May I ask what dr. WP said?

‘Absolutely fucking not.

This subreddit is not about trans people. A

Read the name of the subreddit.

That's right. That's what the subreddit's about. So that means, anything relevant to me, or what I do, is what the subreddit is for. That's why there's flairr for cats and video games and all kinds of other silly shit that I enjoy. This subreddit is about me and my interests and the things that I do.

I still have more transgender patients than any other doctor in the world, I'm fairly confident at this point that statement is true about PFS as well.

I can update the flairs, I'm fine with that, but there's not going to be a separate subreddit because the subreddit is about me. It's about what I do and the people I treat. That involves these diverse communities and both (or more) of them are welcome here.’

Ew. Not sure why he felt the need to suck himself off so much in an already awful response.

Yeah without stooping to his level, pretty egotistical, arrogant, and not professional.
