19M, I think I’m not responding well to the topical meds and I’m contemplating hopping on Oral but I’m afraid of PFS and Minoxidil’s side effects..How do I play the safe game if I decide to give them a try? First pic was taken on 16/4/2025 and the second pic on 28/5/2026
If topical min and fin aren’t doing much after a year, oral versions might offer better results but also have higher risk for side effects. Start with low doses to test tolerance and consider oral min as it’s usually more potent. Always weigh the potential effectiveness against side effects. Check out The Beginner’s Guide for more info.
