community Progress: From June 2022 (7 months of min + fin) to now (1 year) — I’ve lost so much density in this period and I have no idea why. I was getting pretty good resultup until that point.

The user has been using finasteride for three years and topical minoxidil, and while they feel they've lost some ground in the last 18 months, most responses suggest their hair looks the same or even fuller. The general consensus is that the treatments have maintained the hair well, with some users suggesting additional treatments like derma stamping or dutasteride for further improvement.
community A friend suggested I post here. I've been using tretinoin .05% for 3 months and I've had regrowth in my temples and hairline. Just tretinoin, no Minoxidil or fin/dut
Tretinoin alone has led to hair regrowth in the temples and hairline. The user is considering oral minoxidil or dutasteride but prioritizes health first.
