An 18-year-old is experiencing worsening hair loss, feeling isolated, and considering treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride. Others suggest seeing a dermatologist to determine the cause and potential treatments.
community I bought a microscope, how does my scalp/hairs look? I've been suffering diffuse thinning and hair loss after covid and never recovered (2 yrs ago) I eat healthy, in shape and workout.

community How does some people revive their scalps with minoxidil only?
Some people respond better to minoxidil due to higher enzyme levels converting it to its active form. Minoxidil helps with hair regrowth but doesn't prevent hair loss; finasteride and other DHT inhibitors are needed for that.
community 5% minoxidil &1mg finasteride -7th months- Asian-23M
A user's successful hair regrowth after 7 months of using 5% minoxidil, 1mg finasteride, and adding micro needling 4 months ago. The user also took biotin, fish oil, and collagen supplements, and reduced finasteride intake to once every 3 days due to minor libido decay.
community If Minoxidil Beards are permanent, why should Finasteride be unable to keep Minoxidil Gains on the scalp?
Whether Finasteride can keep alive the hair gained by Minoxidil after quitting it, and why beard hairs are not as susceptible to miniaturization. It is suggested that scalp hair may be dependent on Minoxidil and that DHT could be countered with Finasteride to some extent, but there is no definitive data proving this.
