I came off my course of Sust/Deca/EQ three weeks ago. I'm bridging 100 mg/week of Primo between cycles. I've never had a problem with hair loss in the past, but all of the sudden its falling out like mad. I upped my finasteride to 3 mg/day. I know that Primo causes hair loss, but at 100 mg? I want to know if this hair loss is due to DHT thats left over from my recent cycle, or is primo the culprit. Any ideas? Thanks.

Were you taking the finastride with the deca.  If so that could be your problem.

I agree with highside,it's likley the Deca. You might want to drop the Propecia all together for now and try Nizoral shampoo for a few weeks until the Deca levels drop more.

Wait 3 weeks minimum after stopping Deca to start finasteride!

Also primo is hard on the hair!

Thanks for the info.  I've never heard about side effects from mixing Deca with finasteride.  Anyone know why this happens?

Finesteride(propecia) works normally by blocking 5-alpha reductase,the enzyme that converts Test to DHT. DHT triggers hair loss. The less DHT the less hair loss,that&#39;s with test only. With Nandralone(Deca),5-alpha reductase blocks the conversion of Nandralone to DHN(dihyronandralone) at the scalp. Nandralone causes causes more hair loss than the weaker DHN so by blocking the conversion to the weaker of the two baldness inducing compounds hair loss accelerates when you combine Deca and Propecia.

primo has been known to kill hair as well...

EQ is also notorious for hair loss. You can also try using Nizoral shampoo - that works fairly good for me while on cycle and PCT. Most of my hair regrows after PCT, but I am also not prone to hairloss.
