Potentially reduce dosage of Fin and Minox

[arg26]

Hi,

34 y/o.
Norwood Type II

Current Treatment:
2 years of 1mg Fin and 0.5ml of 5% Minox (applied nightly on crown of head)
Previously: very much on border of TYpe II and Type III but good regrowth around temples, etc.

Potential Treatment:?
Reducing Minox to 0.5ml of 5% applied every two nights, OR
Reducing 1mg Fin to every two nights

My goal is two-fold:
1) minimize drug-taking in general
2) reduce tolerance so I have ability to "up" dosage in 5 to 10 years.

Has anyone tried doing this? Any thoughts?

I wouldn't reduce the Minox of you may get a major shed. The Fin should be fine don't think that will make a big difference.

Thanks Mr Clean. So to confirm, you'd say: yes, you can try reducing the Fin. No, don't reduce the minox?

[mrclean]

Yes if you want to reduce something I go with the Fin.
