A user experienced initial improvement with finasteride and minoxidil but is now losing progress and considering switching to dutasteride. Others suggest seasonal shedding, vitamin D deficiency, or trying dutasteride, while some share personal experiences with shedding cycles and treatment adjustments.
Anti-hairlossshampoos, like the one with rosemary, quillaja, and jaborandi extracts, mainly support scalp health but are not effective for hair regrowth compared to treatments like finasteride or minoxidil. Ketoconazole 2% is noted as the only effective anti-hairlossshampoo, while others are often considered scams.
The shampoo discussed is mainly for volumizing and not effective for hairloss. Users suggest using regular shampoo and relying on medications like Minoxidil, finasteride, or RU58841 for hairloss treatment.
A 27-year-old is using finasteride, minoxidil, microneedling, and Pilexil shampoo to combat hairloss, with plans to add Nizoral shampoo and light stimulation. Initial results show reduced hairloss and some hair thickening, despite a period of shedding.
Shampoos marketed for hairloss may not effectively prevent it, as they often focus on improving hair appearance rather than addressing underlying causes like androgenetic alopecia. Effective hairloss treatment typically requires DHT blockers like finasteride.
