The conversation discusses combining topical cetirizine with minoxidil for hair loss treatment and inquires about the safety and absorption through the skin, as well as the possibility of adding melatonin.
The user applies 2ml of a lotion containing 5% minoxidil, 0.3% finasteride, hydrocortisone butyrate, and cetirizine before bed, but it leaves a residue on the scalp. Another user suggests reducing the amount to 1ml, as 2ml results in a high finasteride dosage.
The user reported 4 months of using 0.5mg finasteride and 6 months of microneedling, Nizoral, and topical melatonin. They saw improvement on the left side but no improvement on the right side and are hesitant to start minoxidil.
User's hair loss treatment progress includes 1 mg finasteride, 2.5 mg minoxidil tablets twice daily, microneedling 3 times a week, and Fungoral shampoo twice weekly. Good progress and minimal side effects reported.
A 24-year-old user shared their 3-month progress using a topical spray containing 0.3% finasteride and 6% minoxidil, along with dermarolling and Nizoral shampoo, reporting reduced shedding and signs of hair regrowth.

The user reports improved hair condition after 6 months of oral finasteride and 3 months of topical minoxidil, using a q-tip for application, and incorporating Nizoral shampoo and weekly natural oil treatments. Commenters are impressed with the positive results on the user's hairline.
The user started using 1mg finasteride, 2.5mg oral minoxidil, and ketoconazole shampoo to address hair loss and scalp buildup, showing progress over 1.5 months. The ketoconazole shampoo helped with scalp buildup, and no side effects were reported from the medications.
