The user experienced significant hair regrowth over a year using topical finasteride (0.1%) and minoxidil (7%), along with Ketoconazole shampoo, and recently switched to dutasteride and plans to add oral minoxidil. They managed side effects like oily skin and itchiness with a corticosteroid and chose topical treatments initially to limit systemic exposure.
community Reminder : Biotin is useless (expect if you are really deficient, and you're not)
Biotin supplements are not effective for hair loss unless you are actually deficient, which is rare. Some users report improved hair quality with biotin, but there's no evidence supporting its use for hair loss in healthy individuals.
