OP had a doctor appointment, was advised to try B vitamins and change shampoo for hair loss, and may consider Finasteride if no improvement. Users suggest seeing a dermatologist directly, as vitamins likely won't help much with AGA.
community Follow up appointment with Donovan.
The user was diagnosed with DUPA and initially treated with finasteride, then switched to dutasteride which worsened their hair loss. They are now returning to finasteride and adding treatments including oral minoxidil, Proscar, Viviscal, pumpkin seed oil, LLLT, and Nizoral shampoo, hoping for hair regrowth.

community Bad experience at Dermatologist
A user had a disappointing dermatologist appointment where they were denied prescriptions for Dutasteride and oral Minoxidil for hair loss and were only offered a hair transplant referral. Other users sympathized, discussed self-medication, and suggested consulting a transplant doctor for up-to-date treatments.
