Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
community 3,5 months of only topical minoxidil
A 24-year-old reported new hair growth on temples after 3.5 months of using topical minoxidil without shedding. They plan to add finasteride to maintain progress, as minoxidil alone may not be enough long-term.
community I’ve been on oral finasteride/Proscar for 15 years. (AMA)
A user has been on oral Finasteride/Proscar for 15 years and started using topical Minoxidil, RU58841, and Dutasteride, along with microneedling, 2 years ago. They shared progress pictures and discussed their treatment routine.
