A 16-year-old is considering stopping minoxidil due to minimal results in hair and eyebrowthickness and concerns about potential shedding after discontinuation. They are unsure if continued use is necessary and seek advice on how to stop without causing hair loss.
A user reported significant hair thickening after 6 months using oral finasteride and oral minoxidil, with no side effects. Some commenters requested better comparison photos and noted an increase in eyebrowthickness.
A user shared their hair regrowth progress after using oral minoxidil (3mg) and finasteride (1.1mg) for 11 weeks, noticing significant improvement and no bald spots, with the side effect of increased eyebrow and eyelash growth. They plan to update again in 6-9 months and have inspired friends to try the same treatment.
User 1: Female, 24, prescribed 2.5mg oral minoxidil and 100mg spironolactone, asks about others' experiences. User 2: Male, 32, took oral minoxidil for a year, saw better results at 3.75mg, experienced thicker eyebrows, longer eyelashes, and longer body hair.
The user recently went bald and plans to stop taking finasteride, questioning its impact on beard and eyebrow density. Responses suggest he looks good both bald and with thinning hair, with some recommending minoxidil for the crown and noting finasteride's effect on beard thickness.
