A user successfully improved their hairline after 15 months using topical minoxidil and dutasteride. Some commenters question the necessity of treatment given the user's original hair condition, while others support early intervention.
This user experienced improvements in their hair density and texture through the use of finasteride (1.25mg) and minoxidil (5%) applied topically once a day over 8 months, with no reported side effects other than slightly lowered libido.
The conversation discusses using topical finasteride for hair loss, with concerns about its safety around family members, especially pregnant women and infants. One user plans to try topical finasteride due to side effects from the pill.
Hair loss is humorously blamed on ancient selection preferences, with discussions on genetics and societal norms. Treatments like finasteride are mentioned as modern solutions.
The user has tried finasteride, minoxidil, dutasteride, microneedling, retinol, topical finasteride, and ketoconazole for hair loss but continues to experience hair recession. They are considering adding oral minoxidil or RU58841 and are unsure about the next steps.
