Your long hair in 2020 looks very nice after you started finasteride. I wish my hair was like that again like it was before my hair loss started in 2022, and even on treatments I still can’t the hair to regrow like it was like that right now. Lots of missing hair all over the scalp and even the sides of my head.

what treatments are you taking?

[@rayanzaidi2793]

@@siliconknights Oral finasteride and oral minoxidil, derma stamp every week or two weeks, and occasional scalp oiling and massaging, although not as much lately.

Is dutasteride better than finasteride? I’ve heard it is

[@algarrido]

Yes, Dutasteride is stronger in combating hair loss than finasteride, because it blocks the 5-alpha-reductase type 1, 2 and 3. Finasteride only blocks the type 2

Hi. Thanks for sharing your results with us. Did you really use 6 years minoxidil and micor needling to achieve your end result? And do you still use it? What do you think, will you lose your hairs again by stopping the process? Thanks in advance for reply.

[@jesusventura9213]

I am currently using the topical solution from hims which I believe I s 0.3% percent Finasteride and 6 % minoxidil and ive been using it for nearly a year now and I don’t believe it has slowed Any of my hair loss and it definitely has not helped me in regrowing some of that hair back, but I do believe that I may not not be a responder to minoxidil, is there anything that you would recommend me do to better my chances at seeing any results?

[@bojanrusso537]

switch to oral finasteride 1mg a day and keep the minoxidil routine. If you don't see results or even lose more hair, ask your dermatologist to switch to futasteride and supervise it to see if any side effects occur. From that point on keep that routine, or slowly stack your way up with 0.25mg dut etc

what are your takes on oral minoxidil ???

[@algarrido]

I believe it's a last-resort solution. It's much better to start with topical minoxidil, which is much safer. If that doesn't work, you can consider, together with your doctor the possibility.

I wanna ask you something how much is the daily hair loss and did your loos hair when you shower? Or when brushing your hair , or when running your hand in your hair?

[@algarrido]

Well, at the beginning of using these treatments, the daily hair loss was high, more than 100 hairs. Now it's nowhere near that. I can't say how many for sure, but I don't see many in the sink as before.

how long to give finasteride before getting on dutasteride? is it normal to see the scalp when ur hair is wet?

You should use finasteride at least 1 year, because finasteride's results can take that long.

bro my hairline has receded a little bit but my crown and other part is fine and thick… I am on finasteride for 2 days. Do you think I should add minoxidil now or should wait for 6-12 months to see if i regrow with finasteride only? What do you think bro? Will my hair regrow by using finasteride and derma roller only?My plan is to add minoxidil when I loose even on finasteride after maybe 1-3years.

[@jaskier428]

Just do it, best way to not go bald is to keep the hair you have not lost yet. Topical minoxidil could not harm you more than oral finasteride does

[@aj6543]

Isn’t your hair regrowth because of your use of dutasteride?

It's better to start with Finasteride. Most of the times, Finasteride is enough to stop hair loss, and its easier to get.

Thanks for your video. So I have been using the dermaroller for 1 month now and my hair seems to fall out even more. Is that normal?

Hey Al I hope you are feeling awesome! Do you think minoxidil and Dermaroller is enough for a guy between Norwood 1 & 2? Because Finasteride side effects is not something I want to risk if I still have thick and dense hair, only receding. And do we loose all gains for minoxidil if we stop using it? Shot G!

[@algarrido]

In that case, you'll be able to regrow your receding hairline for some years. But in the long term, it is possible that your hair loss continues to get worse. In which case, you'll need to start finasteride anyway. I'd honestly consult with your doctor. It may be best to only use finasteride as a sole treatment. You can consider yourself lucky if you only need to use one treatment, and finasteride is the easiest to use. Also, about the side effects: if you try it and it turns out you have them, you can just quit and the side effects will go away too. But as I said, consult it with your doctor.

[@celcom989]

@@algarrido Doctors are useless Al and you know it haha. They just mentioned the side effects of finasteride. So the choice is mine now really... I am thinking of just dermarolling and using minoxidil to grow it for some years and see if I am even prone to androgenetic alopecia then. Because I think I dont even have it in my genes. Then if it ends up falling out, I'd take finasteride then.

I'm currently using 5% minoxidil twice a day, and it's been effective in covering most of my bald spots. In the future, I want to ensure that the effectiveness of minoxidil doesn't diminish. In your video, you mentioned overcoming the problem of reduced effectiveness over the years but didn't explain how. Could you kindly provide a tip on how to prevent this change? @algarrido

[@algarrido]

It's a great question, it was implied with the treatments and routine I use. First, you need a DHT blocker like Finasteride, because Minoxidil by itself can only slow down hair loss. Second, the derma roller will allow you to gain better results with minoxidil, since it allows the liquid to reach the follicles better.
