community Quit vaping/smoking = 80% less loss

in Research/Science 235 upvotes 2 years ago

Quitting vaping significantly reduced hair loss for a user who was a heavy vaper and also taking finasteride. Some participants suggest nicotine's vasoconstrictive properties may worsen hair loss, while others share personal anecdotes of hair improvement after quitting smoking or vaping.

community (M24) ~5 years progress on Fin & Min. AMA

in Progress Pictures 1696 upvotes 3 years ago

The user "LandB4TimeIn3D" shared their hair loss progress using finasteride (Fin) and minoxidil (Min). They experienced shedding for the first few years but saw significant regrowth after about 2-3 years. They also mentioned using topical liquid minoxidil twice a day.
