It doesn't address the root problem of hair loss as propecia does, it does cause a LOT of shedding when you start it and when you stop it, and it is a little messy. Also, a recent study showed it only works for like 38% of users anyway. If you can tolerate propecia, I would just stick with that.
Thanks. Yeah I am actually on finasteride (3+ years) & double-dosing dutasteride too (10 months). Also keto 2% shampoo. My hair has taken a srs hit this year & I think it is from starting dut, but it could also just be alopecia progressing
I think minox is much more useful for people who are also on DHT meds. I might get decent results if I commit to it but there are factors like this making me reluctant
