      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  147 upvotes 1 year ago
      The user, Salt_Ad6339, shares their positive experience with hair regrowth after using minoxidil and finasteride for a year, along with microneedling. However, they also mention experiencing chest/nipple pain and suspect it may be a side effect of finasteride. They decide to stop using it for now and see if minoxidil alone can maintain their hair. Other users in the conversation discuss the potential side effects of finasteride and suggest using an aromatase inhibitor to counteract them.

      Hair follicles can be dormant and potentially revived with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, but irreversible loss occurs if certain structures are destroyed. Early intervention is more effective, and additional methods like microneedling may help.
