community Nov 2023 to today. 1mg finasteride daily since Feb 2024. Considering moving to Dutasteride based on the anecdotes I see on this sub and would like input.
A 30-year-old is using 1mg finasteride daily and 5% minoxidil inconsistently for hair regrowth, noticing recent progress and considering switching to dutasteride. Users advise continuing the current regimen for at least two years before considering dutasteride, as finasteride and minoxidil are showing positive results.
community Alguien más le pasa esto por el minoxidil?
A 20-year-old male experienced mental fog after resuming topical minoxidil for hair loss, questioning if it's due to interactions with antidepressants. Suggestions included trying a lower concentration of minoxidil or alternatives like copper peptides.
