      community β€œJust minoxidil” users, how are you doing now?

      in Minoxidil  23 upvotes 6 days ago
      Minoxidil alone is often insufficient for significant hair regrowth, with many users experiencing limited results or side effects, leading them to add finasteride or dutasteride for better outcomes. Some users report initial improvements with minoxidil but eventually require additional treatments to maintain or enhance hair growth.
