Hi guys, these are my current photos. I’ve been losing my hair for the last 6 years and only started treatment in the past 2 years. I’ve been on topical minoxidil the last two years, and I have seborrheic dermatitis. Because of the seborrheic dermatitis, the minoxidil seemed to make it worse, so I stopped it altogether. I went to a few dermatologists to get the seborrheic dermatitis treated, but it didn’t work. The medicine they gave me only worked temporarily, and the seborrheic dermatitis kept coming back.
Here’s the medicine stack I’m currently on
1. Dutasteride 0.5 mg (every 2 days), which I started on December 15, 2025.
2. Oral minoxidil 0.625 mg. I started it on August 20, taking it every other day for a month and 5 days, then switched to daily on September 25. I am currently planning to up my dose to 1.25 mg everyday.
3. Shampoos: ketoconazole 2%, a salicylic acid 2% shampoo, and a simple biotin shampoo
A blood test in December last year showed that I have a vitamin D deficiency. Should i restart the Vitamin D supplements?
Do you think this shampoo stack will work for my seborrheic dermatitis? Any advice on the rest of my stack is welcome too.
