How does minoxidil and finasteride interact?
I’m sorry to disturb you with this message, but I’m really confused about something and I was out of options… I have been using Minoxidil for more than 9 months and finasteride for 8. I have read somewhere that I could never stop minoxidil because I started it before Finasteride and so that my hair was already dependent on its effect and that finasteride would not really work well too because of it. Is that true ?
I’m sorry if my question is stupid… Have a good day, Sir.
There is a lot of confusion out there. Minoxidil develops minoxidil dependent hairs when it works. Finasteride reverses miniaturization and possibly brings back the hairs when it is almost gone. These are independent so one can be used without the other although the two are complementary to each other.
