This post by PastelDeUva discusses their experience with Minoxidil and Finasteride for hair loss treatments, which they stopped using for a year before resuming due to family's negative opinion. After restarting, they posted photos of the progression/regression of their hairline and are now planning on adding finasteride and dermarolling in order to get good results.
