Using a daily hair spray with 0.3% finasteride, 7% minoxidil, 2% ketoconazole, and biotin, along with a 1% ketoconazole shampoo once or twice a week, may be excessive according to the product's recommendations. The user is unsure about this regimen for treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA).

Combining tretinoin with minoxidil may improve absorption by exfoliating the scalp, but results vary. Users suggest starting with low frequency to avoid irritation, and some recommend additional treatments like finasteride or microneedling.

GHK-Cu is a potent inhibitor of the type 1 5-alpha reductase enzyme in hair follicles, which may reduce hair loss without the side effects associated with type 2 5-alpha reductase inhibitors.
