      A user shared their aggressive hair loss treatment regimen, which includes daily use of Avodart (dutasteride) and Minoxidil, bi-weekly use of Davines Purifying shampoo, and almost daily use of Ducray Anaphase+ shampoo, along with supplements like vitamin D3, collagen, biotin, and zinc. They also use a dermastamp every 10 days and are considering a hair transplant for increased density, followed by a switch to finasteride and Minoxidil foam.
