Nine months on topical minoxidil, but I never noticed any regrowth. I started finasteride one month ago (couldn’t get it prescribed), but now I have red bumps on my scalp, mostly on the temples. What should I do? Is it an allergy to minoxidil? Also been using nizoral 2% and it has helped a bit. My dermatologist told me to not worry about it and it’ll go away on its own but everytime i start using min i get a crazy itch everytime
You might be allergic to the carrier in the topical, which is probably propylene glycol. Try a PG-free version.
