Which is better, topical or oral finasteride?

There are two types of topical finasteride, the compounded liposomal version and the more common non-liposomal version. 82% of the liposomal version stays in the skin, but for the non-liposomal form, a great deal more leaks into the body. Generally, the pill is more effective as it addresses areas that are in the early phases of miniaturization which you might not see nor apply the topical to it.
