community New 2025 study: high dose oral minoxidil (up to 10mg)
High-dose oral minoxidil (>5 mg/day) can increase hair density in some men with androgenetic alopecia, but side effects like extra body hair and heart issues are common. Gradual dose increase is advised, but adverse effects may lead to discontinuation or dose adjustments.
community Been on Oral Minoxidil for 50 days. It definitely works!

The user is using a combination of 7% minoxidil, 0.2% finasteride, 0.5mg finasteride, RU58841, and daily microneedling but is not seeing hair regrowth after 5 months. Suggestions include being patient, reducing microneedling frequency, considering oral minoxidil, and possibly switching to dutasteride if no improvement after a year.
