I feel like I’m losing a little battle here, and it’s not fun. Would appreciate your advice.
Forty eight year old male. Here is what I have used:
3/2022 Started topical Minoxidil, twice a day.
10/24 Started using 1% Ketoconazole shampoo daily.
12/24 Switched to combo Topical Fin and Min.
1/25 Switched to Oral Fin and Topical Min.
8/25 Started using Dr. Pen Microneedling, every 14 days.
1/26 Switched to Oral Duesteride and Min. Continued topical Min for 3 more weeks until I ran out.
You’ve experimented a lot, switching to oral dut and adding microneedling is solid. Since you’re seeing some results, you might keep using what works. Reintroducing topical min can help or consider other topicals if you get side effects. CBD with MCT oil might aid scalp health too. Stick with your current regimen at least six months more to see full results. Keep using the ketoconazole shampoo to manage any excess inflammation. For more options, check the product finder for topical ideas.
