Oral minoxidil is claimed to be more effective and easier to use than topical minoxidil, with a 100% response rate, but it may cause unwanted body hair growth and has potential heart-related side effects. Topical minoxidil is less effective for many due to enzyme limitations, can cause scalp issues, and is more challenging to apply, but it avoids systemic side effects.

Some users report better outcomes with dutasteride, while others recommend a gradual transition to prevent potential hair loss.

Minoxidil and finasteride are effective for hair loss, especially when used together. Microneedling may enhance minoxidil's effects, but its standalone effectiveness is uncertain.
