community Microneedling and minoxidil alone
A physician experienced hair thickening and new growth using microneedling and minoxidil, but stopped using topical finasteride due to side effects like reduced libido and erectile dysfunction. The physician plans to continue with microneedling and minoxidil, considering finasteride nonessential for cosmetic purposes.
community Those that got rekt by Dut did you end up recovering?
Some users experience worsening hair loss with dutasteride, while others improve after initial shedding. Many switch back to finasteride due to better results or fewer side effects, often using minoxidil and topical treatments.
