The user did not respond to minoxidil and is considering using tretinoin to improve results. They also explored finasteride, microneedling, adapalene, red light therapy, and oral minoxidil as potential treatments.

Combining minoxidil with tretinoin may help those who don't respond to minoxidil alone. Some users report better results with this combination, along with oral minoxidil and finasteride.

A new topical treatment called RT1640 claims to reverse AGA using cyclosporine A, Minoxidil, and a new chemical entity, RT175. Users are skeptical due to lack of clinical trial data and inconsistent before-and-after photos.

A user saw no results from using minoxidil and microneedling for 1.5 years and is considering trying tretinoin. They are seeking others' experiences with tretinoin for hair loss.

Minoxidil's effectiveness varies due to differences in sulfotransferase enzyme levels in the scalp, affecting people with conditions like ASD, liver disease, and androgenic alopecia. Treatments like topical tretinoin, microneedling, and using minoxidil sulfate instead of regular minoxidil can improve results for those with low enzyme levels.

An arthritis drug, baricitinib, is discussed as a potential treatment for autoimmune alopecia, not androgenetic alopecia. Ritlecitinib is also mentioned as a possible treatment for scarring alopecia.
