The new protocol includes switching to 5mg oral Minoxidil, continuing microneedling, and adding Anagenil Complex, while seeking advice on whether to stop topical Minoxidil and the effectiveness of Anagenil Complex.

      community "When comparing 5% minoxidil with 0.60 mm or 1.20 mm needle lengths, Faghihi et al. found that 0.60 mm needle lengths led to significant hair count and diameter increases versus 5% minoxidil, whereas 1.20 mm needle lengths only saw hair count increases versus 5% minoxidil"

      in Research/Science  60 upvotes 2 years ago
      Microneedling with 0.6 mm needles combined with 5% minoxidil is more effective for hair count and thickness than minoxidil alone or with 1.2 mm needles. Biweekly microneedling at 0.6 mm depth is recommended for better results in treating androgenetic alopecia.
