A dermatologist advised stopping minoxidil and trying redensyl serum, while also starting finasteride. Concerns were raised about increased hair loss after stopping minoxidil.
A user shared their 4-month progress using a serum with Minoxidil 10%, Progesterone, Azelaic acid, Retinoic acid, Latanoprost, and Hydrocortisone, along with PRP and Fotona laser treatments. They are pleased with the results and plan to continue with more PRP and laser sessions, without using Finasteride.
A user is seeking a European supplier for a 3-in-1 hair loss medication containing Minoxidil, Finasteride, and Biotin. Suggestions include using forwarding services and a UK-based provider, with discussions on potential import taxes.
Mixing 1ml of topical Minoxidil and Pyrilutamide (2ml total) together in a container and applying immediately is being discussed. The concern is whether this method degrades or compromises the efficacy of either compound.
The conversation is about a user's two-year hair loss treatment progress using 1mg oral finasteride daily, Kirkland minoxidil twice a day, and Nizoral 1% shampoo three times a week. The user reports no side effects and attributes most progress to finasteride and minoxidil.
Adding an LLLT laser cap to a routine of finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole shampoo significantly reduced hair shedding from 200+ hairs a day to around 80, improving scalp health. The user attributes the laser cap as the key factor in stabilizing hair loss after two years of using other treatments.
The conversation discusses the uncertainty of the legitimacy of minoxidil products in the EU market and mentions baricitinib as an approved, but expensive alternative. A method to test for real minoxidil involves mixing it with bleach to see if it turns orange or brown.
A user had a bad experience with a dermatologist who prescribed saw palmetto and biotin shampoo for hair loss, which was ineffective. The dermatologist then suggested minoxidil and dismissed the user's interest in finasteride, leading the user to consider seeking a new dermatologist and possibly starting minoxidil in the meantime.
The conversation is about using topical melatonin for hair loss and seeking advice on a safe mixing solution or pre-mixed product. Specific treatments mentioned are minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
