The user has been using topical Minoxidil for 5-6 months and added 1mg oral Finasteride daily for 1.5 months, experiencing new hairgrowth and some shedding. The user is optimistic about the treatment's effectiveness.
The user switched from prescribed topical minoxidil and finasteride to stronger grey market alternatives, hoping for better hairgrowth but experiencing shedding. Concerns were raised about the legitimacy and safety of grey market products, with suggestions to use prescribed medications instead.
Finasteride may cause initial shedding, but it's part of the process for strongerhairgrowth. Users suggest starting treatment and trusting the process, as it can improve hair density over time.
Biotin may strengthen existing hair and reduce hair loss, but it doesn't promote new hairgrowth. Some users report stronger, darker hair, while others see no benefits or experience acne.
Hair shedding is common when using minoxidil and finasteride, often indicating that the treatment is working as weaker hairs fall out to make way for strongergrowth. Many users experience multiple shedding cycles before seeing significant hair regrowth.
