Can I get by with just minoxidil?

I would take finasteride too, but I’m currently in a tough financial situation and relying on money from donating blood. Do I need to take finasteride as well to stop my hair going or could I get by with minoxidil and maybe something else?
I can’t afford to take a break from donating blood right now.

You can try using just min, it’ll help with hair regrowth even if you’re not addressing the root cause like fin does. Just be prepared for possibly slower and worse results since min works as a stimulator, not a DHT blocker. Check out The Beginner’s Guide for more info on starting out with these treatments. Also, microneedling could be an addition if cost is a factor. If you’re thinking of where to get min, have a look at the product finder for options.
