Yeah it sucks but if you want to keep your hair you're going to have to keep up the dutasteride useage forever and keto shampoo is a good option too. If that works, in a few years you can get a transplant to fix your temple areas completely and keep up with the maintenance treatment.
It's not so much scary as it is a pain in the ass. You should have good results, but you're in this for life. You won't return to a norwood one on treatment, but with minox dutas and keto (and maybe a laser helmet too) you should be able to grow back 50% of what is lost.
No kidding, it sure is a pain in the ass. But still better than a head without hair. I just checked the shampoo my doctor suggested doesn't contain that keto stuff it has something like zpto, looks like I'll buy one then...
I'll be on duta and minoxidil...
And just one more question, if I get my hair back (50%)
And Then I see no regrowth for a couple of months..
Can I reduce the dosage?
Like minoxidil and Dutasteride every other day?

Dutasteride remains in the system for weeks after a single dose, so you should take it every other day anyway. Minoxidil I would personally only do once per day anyway because it is a bit of a hassle and can look bad when you're going out, but you need it on at least once a day for four hours. If you regrow you shouldn't lower the dosage as the body can become dependent and over time your androgen receptors will increase sensitivity so you may go backwards doing this.

Damn this... Well... Looks like I'll take Dutasteride as one tablet every 36 hours.... Just to be on the safe side... And for now I'm using minoxidil 2 times a day. As for now I've no classes so I'm home majority of the time. So after I get visible regrowth I'll lower it to once per day (5% minoxidil)
