I am 38 and though I had maybe a thinning area at the back, in the past few months things have gotten worse. I was typically using Nioxin or similar as a standard shampoo but ran out and was using very cheap shampoo. I think it is obvious that I need to revisit my shampoo.
I bought some Tgel which is coal tar but does not seem to do a thing for itching. I think some of my issue is I scratch....
So I was thinking of getting the Bosley Revive shampoo and supplement with minoxidil after shower? Is there another regiment you recommend? From what I read, many users of Minoxidil experience itching, which probably won't be good.
I would describe my scalp as somewhat oily and there are red blotches when I get out of the shower but they subside quickly. I don't have extensive dandruff I do get a bit at times. I do not have scaling, major flaking, sores, etc.
In general, I am in above average health, about 10lbs over weight, and eat mostly healthy foods but I do dive into chips and such occasionally. I do chew snuff maybe once/day but have been off and on. From what I read, nicotine can cause DHT? Probably a good enough reason to stop that disgusting habit for good.
I was also wondering if there were additional supplements/vitamins that do anything? I used to just take a multi vitamin and usually boost a lot of B vitamins.
