A user with aggressive male pattern baldness found that topical melatonin significantly reduced their hairshedding to 1 or 2 hairs per day and noticed some thickening of side hair. They tried many treatments like finasteride and minoxidil with little success, but topical melatonin showed immediate results in reducing hairloss.
This user experienced an improvement in hair quality and stopped shedding by using Minoxidil 5% spray twice a day for 4 months. Other users encouraged the use of finasteride to maintain the results, as it is the only treatment that addresses the underlying cause of hairloss.
