community Missed 15 days of fin and min, will my hair be okay?

in General 40 upvotes 8 months ago

Missing 15 days of finasteride and minoxidil may cause some hair loss, but resuming treatment should help regrow hair. It's important not to miss doses to avoid potential setbacks.

community Missed one day of fin, am i losing ground?

in Satire 191 upvotes 1 year ago

Missing one day of finasteride is humorously discussed, with suggestions to use additional treatments like dutasteride, RU58841, minoxidil, and microneedling. Some users jokingly suggest shaving the head or traveling for hair restoration.

community Dutasteride: Can You Miss for 50 Days Without Losing Progress?

in Research/Science 5 upvotes 1 year ago

Missing dutasteride for up to 50 days likely won't cause significant hair loss if used for over six months, as it provides long-lasting DHT suppression. Continuing other treatments like minoxidil and scalp care is recommended during any break.

Common misconceptions about hair loss treatments include the belief that lower doses of finasteride are as effective as higher doses, and that ketoconazole is effective for androgenetic alopecia without scalp issues. Additionally, minoxidil's effects can be seen sooner than commonly thought, and topical dutasteride is effective.
