Last november left, today on the right. Initially I wanted a FUE but my doctor led me to try medical treatment (I was all against drugs in the first place, but gave it a thought).
I started in early June with 1 mg of oral Finasteride and 5 % topical Minoxidil (twice a day) and seem to have regained some density.
Also, I darkened a lot - is this normal?
I’ve made some major improvements but I think I still consider that FUE next spring …
Wow that’s an amazing amount of darkening. This does happen but I can’t remember a case when it was this dramatic. Most of the examples I remember of people getting darker hairs started with a lot of grays.
I’m still a little dazzled, too. I was nearly white-blonde as a small child with ever darker growing hair while aging, but this …

Congrats bro, that’s great that your expectations are getting higher rather than lower. How about dermarolling and/or GHK-Cu?
