The most popular reviews in /r/tressless:
I see that last graph posted here a lot as a knock on minoxidil, but if you read the actual study the big drop off at the end happens because they discontinue treatment at 96 weeks! Otherwise you would expect the trend to remain above baseline for a while longer.
For the 5 year study, I wonder how much of that is skewed because all the poor responders dropped out. Still, it's overall a pretty encouraging look at the data. As someone who unfortunately had side effects from finasteride I would be fucking thrilled if I stayed above baseline for 15 years or so using just minoxidil. Add microneedling and you could possibly stretch that even further.
>Went to a endocrine clinic, where they found my testosterone was much lower than it should be for my age, which made my bone density drop.
Fin did not lower your testosterone. It raises it.

Dude we talked about this study a lot. The study doesn't count non-vellus hair count. It's useless.
If you want one which counted the vellus hairs, it's this one. Bottom line, microneedling alone works better than Minox. It works even better with Minox. End of story.
"In the study, they received scalp massage using a scalp massage device, Panasonic EH-HM75 (Panasonic, Osaka, Japan), on one side of their temporal scalp every day for 4 minutes at 170 rpm."

I've been doing this with a much cheaper device for a few weeks. Hope I see results after a few months.
You're supposed to take 2 pills daily but that gets super pricey, I take one a day and have good results. You can even see the rave reviews and results on Amazon as well.
Very interesting, here's a link that contains a photo of the patients results: https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Hair-regrowth-in-a-male-patient-with-extensive-on-Adenuga-Summers/9f4bda876fe35fc4582f4ce459267e34d6962570
“After treatment was stopped, hair weight and number counts for the minoxidil groups returned to about the same levels as placebo in 24 weeks.”
I think you're making a big mistake there. Just by finding a statistically significant difference between the two groups doesn't mean you have proven causality. 'correlation doesn't imply causation'
Are you buying it on Etsy or Amazon? I'm not in Canada, but don't you guys get free shipping with Amazon Prime? Could help with the shipping cost. Here's the Amazon link.
There’s actually this shampoo I’ve heard of with natural ingredients known to block DHT. It’s called PURA D'OR Original Gold Label Anti-Thinning Biotin Shampoo. I haven’t tried it yet but it has a lot of positive reviews on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FH692PQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A23IQE0YUV800G&psc=1
My Supplies: - dr pen from amazon ($100) - 9 count needle cartridge from eBay ($17) - vitamin c serum https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AI51HW2?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf - 70% alcohol - salicylic acid face wash
My process: - wash hair with face wash - spray scalp with alcohol (spray needle as well) - rinse hair - dry with clean towel - (optional: apply numbing cream for 30 minutes and then rinse) - apply serum to entire scalp - begin needling @ 1.5 mm depth in a circular motion until the area becomes noticeably pink (about 5 minutes for entire scalp) - rinse hair again - apply more serum before bed - don’t use minoxidil for 24 hrs
Yea, that's not your prostate.
You can only touch your prostate from inside your rectum...
I'd be happy to give you my opinion on whether you are balding or not. If you are not balding, it is worth taking a look at this link https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-3503/minoxidil-topical/details. There are plenty of potential side effects. If you are balding, you can then decide if you want to jump in anyway...

Thanks for this! Really lightened me up. this here is what I’m taking not 100% sure if it contains the fatty acids as mentioned, thank you for this. Gave me more of a ground to look on. I’ll continue with SP for the next weeks and I’ll follow up with updates.
It’s just some dandruff, nothing to be worried about. It could be the needling or the minox, or both. Needling will encourage growth factors in the skin, so you may experience flaking of dead skin as a result. Some minoxidil formulations, particularly liquid ones, contain alcohol which can dry out the skin.
Proactively, make sure you get plenty of water during the days after needling to keep the skin hydrated and less flakey. Also consider switching to foam minoxidil if you’re currently using liquid as it is often less irritating to the skin.
Reactively, you’ll want to find a routine that helps you keep the dandruff at bay. Consider using chemical exfoliants such as 2% BHA or salicylic acid, or physical exfoliants such as gently massaging the affected areas with a plastic hair brush. You may also want to alter your shampooing habits and possibly consider using an anti-dandruff shampoo on some days.
80 bucks, but FAR more effective, less painful, and more exact. Customizable needle lengths so you can get the exact amount of wounding you want.
I'd recommend getting something like this to essentially scrape away all the dead skin and oils that build up on your scalp. I've been using it for the past few weeks while showering and it clears away a lot of the buildup that causes the itch.
Best plan is to use both, and that's my routine now. Niz 2-3 times a week, ACV bar on the off days. You gotta keep the ACV bar DRY between usages. One bar lasts me two months. I get mine on here on Amazon.
On Amazon. I went for the type they had in the study with as close as I could get to the blend.
Swanson Full Spectrum Vitamin E with Tocotrienols 120 Sgels https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00068SAYO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_t8QeCbNJBD2N1
You might find a better match. I just browsed quickly when I bought it a few weeks back.
No offense dude but seriously? You can't go to amazon and search "Kirklands Minoxidil 5%"
I highly suggest using - just the shampoo I don’t use conditioner
OGX Thick & Full + Biotin & Collagen Shampoo & Conditioner Set, 13 Ounce (packaging may vary), Purple https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078K4PKKR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_wYYKFbFHQ85PS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
You may want to look into a product called Propidren. It is an FDA approved over the counter natural product that contains Biotin, Saw Palmetto, Iron, and other ingredients that block DHT. It is not the cheapest of products (1 month supply is about $35). It can be purchased at Walmart or on Amazon. Here is a link to the product on Amazon. There are over 8,500 reviews to get your own opinion: https://www.amazon.com/Propidren-HairGenics-Palmetto-Stimulate-Follicles/dp/B01NBH0C91. Anyone not wanting to use Finesteride should look at Propidren.
EDIT: I noticed in some of the 5-star reviews on Amazon for this product the manufacturer of Propidren offers 1 month free supply if you give a 5-star review. So you may want to be cautious when reading some of the reviews. Sorry. I was not aware that some of the reviews were manipulated.
I tried making my own oil mix, but it's not for me. Just get something like ScalpWorks. It's got all the oils you need plus all the stuff you want. Check out the ingredient list. I'm really liking it...
> Thanks a lot for the reply man!I'm in a fix as to how I'll cut the 1mg pill into 0.25 mg pieces
Been using this cutter since day 1. ez pz.
>.Do you think I can maintain? Or if possible even get back up to NW1?
NW1 should never be your goal when getting on Fin and joining the hairloss fight. The odds of that happening are extremely small. I think it's 85% or so of men get results from Fin, but about 40% of those are just the cessation of loss, so your hair stops where it is and doesn't get worse. You'll probably get some regrowth, but even just halting the loss is a success.
"But Rawtashk, I want the hair to get better!!!!" Time travel in your mind to 5 years in the future and think about what your bald or NW3.5-4 self would be like. I bet future almost bald you would FREAKING LOVE IT if he could regrow hair to where you are at NW2 right now. We all want Brad Pitt's hairline, but we have to be happy with what we can get.
Oops it was 60, not 50. Also you didn't back up your claim so I figured I didn't have to back up mine. Women are much more likely to have hypothyroidism. You are correct that it is not rare since ~1 in 3 people have a thyroid disease.
"Women, especially those older than 60, are more likely to have hypothyroidism."

What? Generic fin is like $10-15 a month for 1mg. If you buy the 5mg and cut it its like $2 http://www.costco.com/Pharmacy/drug-results-details-price?storeId=10301&catalogId=10701&searchKeyword=finasteride&drugId=247&drugName=Finasteride&drugSearch=headerDrugSearch&isPharmacy=true&encodedDrugName=Finasteride
If you do this, you should send off a sample to get purity tested first.
You'll need a vehicle. Half life is 3 hours so you'll probably need to apply the stuff a few times a day.
According to this site traffic checker, the PFS foundation has less than 50,000 visits last month and the average time spent in the website was 59 seconds.
i'm on this forum because i like learning about hair loss treatments and sharing my knowledge with others.
it's not my passion or anything, and it's probably in my best interest to say nothing and let there be more ugly bald guys roaming the earth, but i learned from others who shared info and experiences and i figured i'd do some of that on this fledgling forum.
i always acknowledge that finasteride does cause sexual side effects in a minority of users and that it is possible (but not certain) that a very tiny minority do have persistent side effects related to usage of the drug. merck was selling $136 million of propecia per year before it went off patent, and that doesn't factor in people who got drugs from other countries, took dutasteride or were using proscar tablets (for baldness or otherwise). that means there are A LOT of men taking 5-AR inhibitors, and we don't have an epidemic of men turning into women.
you are beyond reasoning with, but i post responses so other people reading this stuff can make an informed decision.

Nizoral.. helps me a lot with my seborrhoea dermatitis, and I had it bad.
I bought my nizoral on Amazon, and I use it twice a week. My condition, disappeared entirely.
Give it a try, it's also good for hair lost too

I do it this way, my insurance won't cover the 1mg but it does cover the 5mg. The pills are a little difficult to cut evenly but that is of no concern, as long as it maintains the level in your body. FWIW I use these. They're pill scissors and they work really well.

No I never noticed hair loss with it. If I had to be completely honest, back in November when I was taking it almost everyday with my preworkout I noticed that my hair was growing extremely fast. I never even knew that l-citrulline affected hair until you mentioned it but it helped me in a positive way, or it might have been something else I was using at the time
I found these online I think you should check them out. There’s even a product that prevents hair loss that contains l-arginine l-arginine hair Amazon
Get a brush like this and aggressively brush the min into your scalp. I had massive regrowth doing this.

Well, actually I found one. If you must, here's what appears to be a 1.5mm dermaroller.
For a dermapen, here's the exact one I bought.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/362957395306
They did lie about shipping from the US, though.
https://www.amazon.com/Sent-Earth-Caffeine-Ketoconazole-Peppermint/dp/B07K8Z8GMC
Switch to this shampoo. The only redeeming quality of Nizoral was the ketoconazole, which sent-from-earth has. I've been using it every day (yes literally every day, have to or else hair gets oily) for about a year now, and it's been absolutely amazing.
It is completely harmless because it has no sulfates / other chemicals. :)
I’m in Canada as well, I ordered this one https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Cosmetics-Tips-Stamp-Rejuvenation/dp/B07K2YQN25 and it took less than 2 weeks to get to me in BC. I ordered through the American Amazon because the same one through .ca is FAR more expensive even when you consider shipping and currency exchange.
SP extract is good and better than the powder. This was what I was taking before getting on fin. Notice how it has 45% fatty acids.
This is the dermaroller that I use.
You want to do it once a week. 10 times vertical, horizontal, and diagonal over the areas you want to regrow hair on. Clean with 70% isopropyl alcohol before and after use. You want your scalp to turn red, little points of blood are just fine as long as your scalp doesn’t look like it’s been mauled by a possum.
Maybe I don’t know enough to give correct answer but u can buy these head massages and I’ve heard they work

Thanks for the reply! Have you noticed any change with the 2%?
Yeah, I looked on Amazon but could only find the womens - this is the one I ordered.
I'm not sure about it only treating the crown. I only have problems with my crown so I've never paid attention to it. I always do apply it to my temples though. I just go full on costco brand off of amazon or something.
I sort of agree. I stopped using Nizoral, and I definitely don't think it's good for daily use. But yeah, that ACV bar helps. It's now on Amazon Prime too (really fucking love Amazon Prime). https://www.amazon.com/Wildland-Botanicals-ACV-Shampoo-Bar/dp/B0759ZNGJS/
10,000 micrograms, or 10 mg. It's a water soluble B vitamin. A lot of multivitamins include it, but I don't take a multi.
You can't take too much, but it can give you rosy cheeks and sometimes acne at 10,000 mcg. I don't get that tho. Amazon link it's hella cheap.
I was about to pull the trigger on Nutrafol <- [Amazon link] but then got a referral to a dermatologist instead. If I don't get results medicinally then I might try it. It's just really expensive. It has good before and afters I'm just concerned its snake oil and I'm pretty desperate as it is. Better to not buy on impulse and wait to see if my doctor can help.
There is a study coming out on nutraceuticals very soon. It's here if it can be of use to anyone. Keeping an eye on it for results to come out next month. It's for females, by the way. Not very helpful on this specific subreddit but maybe it can help someone.
What do you mean you can get capsules of it on amazon for 25 dollars lol. https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Sunshine-Equolibrium-Capsules-Count/dp/B00JJ2BAGS/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1523416110&sr=8-1&keywords=equol
Yeah, we all get those. You have to make those grow naturally as you can, while still using fin and min.
Take care of your hair as if you had long hair, first of all. Make sure your scalp is clean and free of debris.
Rinse your scalp at least twice a day, once with a shampoo to remove any oil, dirt, dust, etc.
As far as supplements, I'm on the fence on this one. I like green-tea, but I also use biotin, and a multi-vitamin. I supplement extra vitamin d and take large doses of vitamin c as well.
There are supplements that claim to thicken hair, but I'm not too sure on those. You can research these on Amazon.
I used to use this, not sure if it works as I'm on fin now, but when I used it, I wasn't on fin.
These supplements are just nutritional aids that will thicken hair, but I'm not sure if they will work on the small short hairs that we want to grow.

Thanks Gioolio--you're bringing back my old chemistry knowledge. Appreciate your thorough responses. I'm trying not to be lazy and ask you things without thinking on myself...but:
I think I'm willing to go the drop route, for now. To avoid having to buy DMSO, do we think ethanol will work, or do we think it will evaporate too quickly?
I also use this "hair lotion" in my hair that makes it feel really nice (curly hair) and I was thinking I'd put in a drop or two in there since I use it once or twice a day. Below are the ingredients--do you think the sandalore will dillute well enough in there? And, just to confirm, since the bottle is 250ml, I need 1/4 of the .10518g of sandalore? Sorry I know I'm dilluting (har har) the rigor of this experiment but I'm also trying to cut costs.

​
Finally--the sandalore I got was from amazon: It's basically the consistency of water and doesn't really smell THAT strong compared to what a lot of people seem to be saying. The CAS number is correct so it must be it, but I just want to confirm that what you have (which I know you got from a difference source) seems reasonably similar to what I have. : https://www.amazon.com/Sandalore-Imitation-Sandalwood-Fragrance-65113-99-7/dp/B07JVG8SZG

I ordered a 4x4 hairpiece on Amazon. The cheap ones only come in black so you'll have to color it yourself. I was able to cut bangs on mine and apply a little foundation (make up) to the part to match my scalp. I'm really happy with the way it turned out. It doesn't look like a wig. It just makes me look like I have more hair. It was less than $30. I looked up how to color it on YouTube. It was so inexpensive that I wasn't afraid to mess it up, but it turned out great.

I haven't commented on Reddit much, I hope this helps.
Hey, i'm gonna switch to this shit i just found on amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Veta-Treatment-Drug-Free-Trichogen-Follicusan/dp/B07DQC7DRV/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1545500899&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=Copper+peptide+GHK-Cu+hair+loss
It's got both zinc and azelaic acid plus this copper peptide shit which according to wikipedia has been shown to increase hair growth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_peptide_GHK-Cu#Hair_growth
Seems like an awesome combo looking at the ingredients list, like i don't think i'll find a better organic hair loss defense product. Plus it's a spray in so it can be in all day/night. Just a bit pricey at almost $40 but fuck it. I'm gonna order it right now and try to report back in a few months if i notice anything. I think i've definitely noticed some thickening from the 2% keto though. Which thankfully my dermatologist put in for unlimited refills at my pharmacy. So at least i have that going for me.
sorry guys i will put the massager here, i didnt want to link it cause i didnt want it to be an advertisement. i also dont think its that important which one it is.
I tried those shower scalp brushes but was just too lazy to stick with it, here is the one i got:
https://www.amazon.com/Cordless-Massager-Electric-Massager-Scratcher/dp/B07Z8Y47HF
its a bit extra in USD, i got mine in Germany
I use this:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0180A1EXI
Now obviously this is super unorthodox. I go with this because it has ketoconazole in it . And again super unscientific. But I ordered a 90-day supply of fin from Roman. I fill a small coffee mug with ethyl alcohol which you can get off Amazon as well and I do half ethyl alcohol and half this. Let it sit for 24 hours, crush it up, let it sit 24 hours. I just bought a NutriBullet specifically so I can blend it next time. Then I put it through a coffee filter, and then I put it all back in that bottle.
I am super absolutely seeing results from it though and my dick still works. Which when I was taking it orally, was not the case.
Hi all !
Feels great that I’m not alone but sucks that we’re in the same boat. I’m a 22M that has notice my hair is slowly but surely thinning out. I’ve always had a “fine” hair type but it’s never been like this. My parents are convinced that I’m fine and I have nothing to worry about but the other side they have full heads of hair, kinda.
So what I started doing was taking multivitamins, biotin, and a caffeinated shampoo I had bought from amazon. (shampoo ) to see if my hair would improve. Hoping that it would, it didn’t, my hair remained the same and my finger nails grew stronger. So I cut off the shampoo and went to Walmart and picked up some Thick and strong Dove for Men shampoo. Still nothing. No change.
So now I’m convinced I need more knowledge about my current hair status thus the big question
Am I balding ?
(Off track) I wore hats for an entire year straight, and at the end of each day my head would be tender each time I showered.
Update #1 March 21st 2019
I visited my doctor he examined my head and after a few minutes he informed me it was male pattern baldness. I was in denial and request for a blood test to check if my current diet had to do with any of it. I was prescribed finasteride, about 3 months worth, and suggested to use minoxidil simultaneously with it for better results. I am currently looking for a dht blocking shampoo to stop hair from falling out. So far minoxidil sounds like a pain in the ass to keep in your hair for 1-4 hours for a full effect.
Brief:
1 - Taking finasteride
2 - Looking for DHT blocking shampoo
3 - Hoping I’m lacking vitamins causing my hair to fall out
4 - Minoxidil takes dedication.
You need to get it reviewed with a doctor. This is just my opinion ( which counts to 0 in front of a doctor )
Monday : Ketoconazole 2% ( Nizoral )
Tuesday: Vichy Dercos Anti Dandruff Shampoo ( normal to oily scalp ) - ( Salicyclic acid + Selenium Sulfide )
Wednesday: Selsun Blue ( Selenium Sulfide )
Thursday: Ketoconazole 2% ( Nizoral )
Friday: Vichy Dercos Anti Dandruff Shampoo ( normal to oily scalp ) - (Salicyclic acid + Selenium Sulfide )
Saturday: Selsun Blue ( Selenium Sulfide )
Sunday: Alpecin Dual Effect Caffeine Shampoo ( Just for fun - it has Caffeine and salicyclic acid in it though )
​
The idea is not to use shampoo for long as it can build tolerance. Clarifying / Anti-Dandruff shampoo is important if you are using topicals.
In case you have sever dandruff then you can swap the Selsun Blue with Selsun Suspension 2.5% : https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Selsun-Susp-60-ml/dp/B0123TJB50/ for weeks ONLY ( 2-4 weeks )
Hope this helps !!

Are you also on Fin?
I’ve been on Fin for three years, which stopped the loss and shows minor regrowth. Then min for 5 months, and needling for 4. I made up more ground in the last five months with all three vs. the years on fin alone.
I’m not sure what types of clippers you are using, but I’ve never had this issue with Oster clippers and the metal detachable blades are easy to clean and oil up. I’m also a former barber and had problems with many clipper brands before buying Oster. I’ve had all my blades and clippers for 5+ years now and haven’t had to replace anything.

Apply the min at the roots / on your scalp using the length of the pipette to your advantage - then gently rub the area with this.
I’ve been using one for about 12 months for my crown area in particular. Definitely induces some minor shedding from the friction of rubbing that area, but ensures the actual scalp is adequately covered with the solution.

Based on what I've read, if I take them sublingually I can completely bypass any chance of reducing their effectiveness due to the digestion process, so that shouldn't be an issue.
I'll probably hold off until someone with more knowledge on this specific fin+prog cocktail comes along, there's gotta be someone out there as dumb as me to try it and also smarter than me to know what exactly it does.
right here my guy. https://www.amazon.ca/New-Body-Life-Adjustable-Microneedling/dp/B09BVSFFF1/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3T4PI0DMYMNW7&keywords=derma+stamp&qid=1669221036&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIzLjUzIiwicXNhIjoiMi42MyIsInFzcCI6IjEuODkifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=derma+stamp%2Caps%2C108&sr=8-3. its even Dr. pen brand.
For the first months I will try the 1mm roller. I even asked the chemist he said it's a real dermaroller.
Would you be willing to try a topical vitamin D cream to indulge me? It's OTC and only $20.

I believe you aren't deficient but based on what I read it very well could help and can't hurt.
An unproven wild hypothesis is not evidence. It doesn't explain why some people miniaturize not matching supposed regions of scalp tension especially those with DUPA or retrograde alopecia who miniaturize on the back and sides of the scalp.
Here's the link you've all been requesting. It's not the holy grail of stamps or anything, but I like it. Some reviewers claim it wouldn't work after 1 use, but I don't see how that's possible. Just don't twist the knob aggressively when you're adjusting the needle length.
​
i also use a derma stamp, and totally recommend it as a cheaper, more manual alternative. here's the one I got https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Microneedling-Individual-Titanium-Professional-Dermapen/dp/B089MZP1LX/ref=sr_1_7?crid=22O86HKOAS8JK (i'm in EU)
I have a 1.5 stamp (adjustment to 3mm possible) it is wide. The one you use is so small I suspect you are hitting at an angle and causing the issue.
You need ketoconazole shampoo, either 1% or 2%. The most famous brand is Nizoral. This is in addition to finasteride, dermarolling, minxodil, rosemary oil etc. You basically want to pack in as many treatments in ur hair routine as is feasible.
This one from Amazon is 1.5 mm and I bought it recently. Used it yesterday for first time. It seems alright.

This comes with a bunch of needles, you can get it cheaper if you get for like $20 or $30 cheaper if you get it without needle refills. They say to change them each use. I clean and use each one a couple of times. As long as the tip is still sharp and it is clean, I don’t see a reason not to get a few uses per needle set.
Yes a hand-held device. Sorry I didn't reply earlier! Rob English recommends pinching, rolfing and something else as massage moves, but my brain can't manage it. I use two of these little scrubby brushes, pushing hard, but not tearing them across my scalp - I don't want to pull all my hair out. Has helped with scalp mobility a lot! I plan to join Rob English's consultation thing too. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0020S5F9G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought a few of these. You should get around half a dozen uses out of it, or 6 weeks worth if you use it once a week. The needle length is adjustable as well. It's not too expensive so might be a good starting point. It has a manual so read it thoroughly before use. And yeah steer clear of the dermaroller because of the potential scarring. I gave up after about 5 uses (at around 1mm length), because I feel it wasn't doing anything for me personally, but others seem to have better results.

That's the oil I typically use. Fairly cheap and well reviewed.
You dilute it into either water or minox because it's very potent per drop and put it on your head and let it sit. You will feel the "cold burn" of peppermint and it's very stimulating for the scalp and there's studies that support this being a good idea.
Peppermint is also a antifungal and antimicrobial is has several healthy properties to help your scalp and it stimulates growth as well.
Definitely respect the potency and don't get it in your eyes. I have a pretty good tolerance and don't go for more than like 25ish droplets when spiking a mixture. Start small with the pepp and get a sense for how you react to it. Drops are how you measure the oil and the bottle releases the oil one drop at a time so it isn't too complex. Always dilute it though it wasn't meant to be used raw.
If you add too much you will be okay but you'll be stinging and want to wash out your scalp with shampoo to get it off. Since it's an oil water alone will struggle to remove it and if you rub minox + peppermint on your head with your bare hands be mindful of peppermint oil on your hands. Soap will remove it from your hands similar to how shampoo strips oils for hair.
I'm 24 and I haven't noticed myself loosing an amount of hair that makes me think "I'm starting to go bald now." but I know it will happen sooner or later since my dad and grandfather are bald. I guess I just got lucky since my dad says he started to go bald a little bit younger than I am right now. The only major amount of hair I lose is when I wash my hair and notice that quite a bit is going down the drain, which happened within the last week but is slowing down now and back to a reasonable amount of hair falling of in the shower. This happens every now and then and I guess its just the hair growth lifecycle I read about in the wiki.
Because of my current position, I'm thinking of buying this shampoo (Canada) and just using it regularly from now on or at least till I notice its not doing much and I really am starting to go bald and start taking Finasteride. Or should I just get started taking Finasteride right away and if so, what dosage would you guys recommend? Maybe some combination of the two eg.: the shampoo and light dosages of Fin (0.25, 0.5)?
I don't have the one from this listing https://www.amazon.com/TBPHP-M1-Microneedling-Professional-Replacement/dp/B09R3XJVT6/
but mine looks the exact same but only has 5 speed settings and it works just fine. It uses the same cartridges as that one. It is labeled URYOUTH and you can buy a large box of these cartridges under that listing for $18.
like I read this online:
>Problems might still occur even after you've confirmed that the unfamiliar pills are the correct ones. For narrow-therapeutic-range medications such as blood thinners, antiseizure drugs or thyroid medications, our medical consultants recommend staying on a generic drug made by one manufacturer. That's because there can be very small variations among the same generics with different manufacturers. Although it is allowed by the FDA, it could affect some people's response to the medication. (These sorts of differences can sometimes even be found between the same brand-name drug that is manufactured at different times.) Our medical experts say talk with your pharmacist if you are concerned about this issue to assure that you are able to receive your medication from the same manufacturer each month.
no. each model has it's own cartridges. I think you got a Dr. Pen A6 - so you will need cartridges that fit the A6. that is one of the most popular models so you can get cartridges almost anywhere - ebay, Amazon, AliExpress etc. here is one example - but you can probably get them cheap on AlieExpress. https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Pen-Ultima-Replacement-Cartridges/dp/B08P62NCWN/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=1GR5E78XHWO7O&keywords=dr+pen+a6+cartridges&qid=1664893556&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI0LjE4IiwicXNhIjoiMy42NyIsInFzcCI6IjMuNjQifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=dr+pen+a+6%2Caps%2C76&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzTkFPN0VGVFVWSzQmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTAwNDYwMDExVUdZTzk4WTNLWkxPJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA3MDcwNzMyOTZMRlFONjM0VUdVJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
No problem. I also forgot that I have this app installed although I've forgotten to update it with pictures. It has a before and after section where you can choose images and labels it with the date. Some features here that could be used for inspiration!
I am currently looking into the Keto shampoos that are being recommended and am not sure about the product I am looking at. Was the keto shampoo initially meant to treat fungus on the scalp? Or is mainly supposed to and it was found it helped with hair loss? Really confused with this.
This is the product best available in my country:
amazon.de/Ketozolin-2-Shampoo-60-ml/dp/B00EMGLQFG/ref=sr_1_9?crid=3O43J8ODZV638&keywords=nizoral+ketoconazole+2%25+shampoo&qid=1664494065&sprefix=Ketoconazole+shampoo+%28Nizoral%29%2Caps%2C66&sr=8-9

I would use stemoxydine for that.
It depends where you're located but in Europe, you can have a cheaper version than the one from l'Oréal. There is a fructis version. It's like 21€ for 6x84mL (=504mL) it's one year and a half for 21€... Very cheap solution !
I spoke to dermatologist about this and she said it was a myth. It goes on to your scalp I presume.
End off
