Minoxidil alone gave one user only short fuzzy hair after a year. They're now trying a 0.5 microneedling roller and seeking opinions on its effectiveness after using minoxidil.
The user saw some improvement with topical minoxidil over 6-7 months and recently switched to oral minoxidil and finasteride, experiencing mild side effects from finasteride. They are concerned about losing gains from topical minoxidil and are seeking advice on whether to continue with the new regimen.
The user has been using 1mg finasteride and biotin-collagen supplements for 5 months, noticing some progress in hair regrowth. They also use various oils and shampoos, plan to start oral minoxidil, and seek advice on improving their hair care routine.
The user shared progress after two months using a topical formulation containing Dutasteride 0.25%, Minoxidil 5%, Cetirizine 1%, Melatonin 0.5%, Caffeine 2%, and Latanoprost 0.005%. The focus is on hair loss treatment results.
The user experienced no improvement in hair loss after using a dermatologist's minoxidil 10% and finasteride 0.1% solution, clotrimazole, daily dermarolling, and multivitamins. They plan to switch to oral finasteride and reduce dermarolling to once a week.
Mixing minoxidil and alfatradiol in one bottle may affect their effectiveness due to potential stability issues. It's recommended to apply them separately for full benefits.
The conclusion of the conversation is that the user, Amanp2002, has been using a combination of topical finasteride and minoxidil for 5 months to treat hair loss.
Hims chewable oral minoxidil may be less effective due to its form and dosage of 2.5 mg. The effectiveness is questioned because the source criticizing it sells a competing product.
A user from India discusses using a topical solution containing Minoxidil (50mg) and Finasteride (1mg) twice a day for thinning hair and Norwood 2/3. The dermatologist recommended it for maintenance with slim chances of regrowth, and the user seeks advice on its use.
