5 / 22 resultscommunity 2 years of fin, 1.5 years of minoxidil, calling it quits. Thank you.
This user has been struggling with hair loss for the past two years and attempted to treat it using finasteride and minoxidil. Despite their efforts, they have not seen any improvement in their condition, so they have decided to shave or buzz their head instead. Others gave advice on other treatments that could be tried if desired.
community Not everyone should immediately go on Fin if they are starting to bald
The conversation suggests that people should consult a dermatologist to understand their type of hair loss before starting treatments like finasteride or dutasteride, especially if they have autoimmune issues or low DHT. Some participants believe in starting treatment like finasteride immediately if hair loss is due to DHT, while others recommend ruling out other causes and considering minoxidil first, especially for younger individuals.
community What other factors than DHT causes hair loss – and what to do about it?
Factors that can cause hair loss other than DHT, such as inflammation and diet, and potential treatments like scalp massages, minoxidil, citrulline, stretches, meditation, iron sulfate/Vitamin C, Vitamin D, protein and Dutasteride.
