    Default Stopping Minoxidil After 2 Months

    Hello!

    I started minoxidil around two months ago. After two months, I realized that it wasn't really for me, I really didn't need thickening. After the first month on minoxidil, I began taking 1mg finasteride. I plan on stopping minoxidil. Will this give me any negative effects on my hairline / crown? I did have significant shedding the first two weeks of using minoxidil. Also, do finasteride and minoxidil provide a synergistic effect? That may convince me to continue using it.

    They actually work best when you couple them together.

    Fin is the DHT blocker. It thickens your hair density and creates real hair growth. It also stops your hair from falling out by increasing its life.

    Minoxidil causes your individual hair to thicken and stimulates the appearance of hair growth (basically, your tiny hairs get bigger).

    You can also supplement it with Biotin that causes accelerated hair growth.

    Cheers.
