Ramsko1's experience with a hair loss regimen of oral minoxidil, dutasteride, ketoconazole cream, and dermarolling, which they started after considering taking their own life due to hair loss. Other users replied to offer support and ask questions about specific treatments.
Hair loss negatively affects mental health, causing anxiety and depression. Minoxidil and finasteride are discussed as treatments, but side effects and mental health concerns remain.
The hair transplant has a straight, unnatural-looking hairline that many find unappealing. The person is not using finasteride or minoxidil, which may affect future hair retention.
The user experienced significant hair regrowth using finasteride and minoxidil but developed erectile dysfunction. They are considering stopping finasteride and relying on minoxidil alone to see if the side effects improve.
Oral minoxidil may improve hair growth, reduce arterial stiffness, and prevent other health issues. Some users believe it is an effective treatment despite concerns about its effects on skin and blood.
