      A 22-year-old is experiencing significant hair shedding and is using multiple treatments, including oral and topical minoxidil, finasteride, topical dutasteride, ketoconazole shampoo, and considering adding RU58841 and stemoxydine. Others advise patience, suggesting sticking to finasteride and minoxidil for at least a year before evaluating results, as initial shedding is normal and adding too many treatments can be counterproductive.
