I'm having some thinning on the front and the temples, I'm currently on 1/5 of 5mg proscar and the itchness i had on the scalp is much less now.
I also bought Kirkland 5% minoxidil for 6 months but I've read that it's better to first take finasteride for 8 months and if you're not happy with the results, then take the minoxidil, this because if I start to take minoxidil and then stop it I'll lose my hair as it creates some dependency and I'll take 2 meds for the rest of my life while I could only take finasteride wich does not require too much work and you can take it anywhere.
Do you recommend to first take finasteride and then add minoxidil if necessary? I'm asking this because it makes sense to first try one and then add the other but I'm afraid the hair loss could get stronger and I just want to act as fast as I can to slow it.
I'm growing new hair in the front area of the scalp and some hair where before it was completely empty.
I've attached some pics, what do you suggest?
