5 / 26 resultscommunity Physician here AMA – 30M oral Fin 1-1.25 mg daily
Hair loss treatments, specifically the use of finasteride, microneedling and potentially oral minoxidil. People discussed their experiences with finasteride, its effects on sexual behaviors, as well as potential solutions such as tadalafil or using other growth factor signal peptides for hope in curing male pattern baldness.
community Why leave minoxidil on the scalp for more than 30 minutes?
Minoxidil should be left on the scalp for at least 4-6 hours for effective absorption, even if it feels dry after 30 minutes. The skin's interaction with the chemical continues regardless of the solution's evaporation.

Oral finasteride showed better results than topical, despite side effects; microneedling and tretinoin worsened hair loss, and PRP was only helpful when younger.
