An 18-year-old experiencing hair loss is considering using minoxidil and finasteride after minimal growth with a serum containing procapil, redensyl, rosemary, anagain, and aminexil. A suggestion was made to consult a doctor and consider using finasteride and minoxidil if androgenetic alopecia is diagnosed.
A user shared their experience with hair loss treatments, finding success with a topical hair serum containing GHK Cu and AHK Cu, which reduced shedding. They avoided hormonal treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, and noted skepticism from others about non-traditional treatments.
A user reported hair regrowth after taking D3 vitamin pills and using anti-hairfall shampoo for four months. They were later advised to use 10% minoxidil, a hair spray, and a general vitamin pill containing iron, B9, and B12.
The conversation is about whether vellus hair should be included in hairfallcounts, with data showing daily hair loss. The consensus is that shedding, including vellus hair, is normal and within physiological limits.
Dutasteride can slow hair loss and potentially stabilize it, but results vary by individual. Minoxidil and dutasteride may lose effectiveness over time, and hair loss might continue despite treatment.
