As far as stacking Propecia (finasteride) with a body building supplement that already blocks DHT is concerned, I would definitely discuss this issue with a personal physician as you want to make sure you aren't taking twice the normal amount of (essentially) one medication (DHT blocker).

It was never very dense, but a little course. It is basically gone. Propecia needs to be advertising this affect as I am not seeing a significant amount of scalp regrowth, but this back hair reduction is great.
