Struggling with Diffuse Thinning After 2 Years on Oral Minox (3mg) and Dut (0.5mg), Need Advice on Next Steps

General

So, i’ve been taking oral minox (3mg) and dut (0,5) everyday for at least 2 years now. Never seen significant imrpovement but it has maintained it pretty well for the time. But everyday i feel the density getting lower. I’ve also been doing microneedling (stamp) for some time too but started to take ir seriously for 2months now (weekly). Started scalp massaging also almost everyday. Taking vitamins as well.

So, seeing the diffuse thining not reversing and doing everything reccomended so far its sad. What more can i do ? Do i have hope for it to start reversing some time? I’ve been thinking of slowly incrementing the dose of minox (i’ve read someone that takes 6mg ) but im running out of ideas. Need help and opinions

you’re doing a lot that’s usually recommended. sometimes it’s about maintaining more than improving. you could try increasing oral min dose like you mentioned. another thing is checking if any scalp conditions (like dermatitis) might be affecting your progress, and address those with ketoconazole or CBD with MCT oil. also, give treatments time; they can take up to a year to show changes. keep microneedling regularly too. check out The Beginner’s Guide for more info on treatments.
