      A 48-year-old who had been thinning since 25 and reached NW4-5 baldness saw no improvement with 1mg/day finasteride and 5% minoxidil twice a day after 8 months. After copying another person's routine, they now use 0.5mg finasteride, ketoconazole shampoo weekly, daily microneedling with 0.5mm and 1mm once a week, and apply minoxidil twice daily, resulting in baby hairs on their bald spot and temples after three months.

      community What's the deal with Spectral.DNC-N/'nanoxidil'?

      in Minoxidil  5 upvotes 3 years ago
      Nanoxidil is considered to have better absorption and fewer side effects than minoxidil, with added DHT blockers. The user is questioning if switching to the more expensive Spectral.DNC-N is worthwhile compared to cheaper options like Kirkland minoxidil.
