Seeking Short-Term Solutions Before Dermatologist Appointment

Hi, about 5 months ago I noticed very aggressive hair loss, so I started using minoxidil. I noticed a lot of improvement until last month. However, about 3 weeks ago, I noticed that some areas seemed to be thinning again, so I decided to book an appointment with a dermatologist. Unfortunately, every dermatologist in my city is fully booked until October.

What should I do? I’m really scared of going back to the balding phase if I don’t start finasteride soon. Should I just continue using minoxidil? Should I start dermarolling as well? Is there something i can do to stop the balding short term??
