No. Minoxidil is not a DHT blocker so I wouldn’t expect the type of side effects seen with finasteride.
Some men are very sensitive to minoxidil.
Dr. Rassman in your practice have you ever had a patient with an adverse reaction to oral min? Thanks so much! Yes, some people can’t tolerate this medication for one of many reasons, and the blood pressure effects can be disabling for a few people, with lightheaded and rapid heart beat. Here is a list […]
This is a great combination of treatment modalities with good results in a relatively short time. This is especially helped by the microneedlng.
Do you think that it is safe taking finasteride and minoxidil at my age? My result are excellent. Speak with your doctor, as I don’t give direct advice over blogs. I suspect that it will be okay. These topicals go systemic, so maybe you would be better off sticking with the oral forms of these […]
In just 3 months, you thickened your forelock and reversed some of the corner recession. This is a great response on these two drugs in just 3 months. Again, young men under 25m generally respond to finasteride.
If you get results and you want to keep the results, then you must stay on the minoxidil for as long as you want to keep the results.
I continue to believe that microneedling, when done properly once a week while holding the instrument over each balding area for at least 10 seconds, can produce a remarkable reversal of hair loss, especially when combined with finasteride and minoxidil. For a 41-year-old male, your results are remarkable.
I used minox for 6 month I don’t know why last month I lost many of the hair on the cheek even I am using it continuously they are not coming back even after 25 days I don’t know why this happened. Why did you want minoxidil, for beard hair or for scalp hair. If […]
You might ask why this man has such an astounding result in just 3 months. I have little doubt that the core technology here was microneedling supplemented with minoxidil and finasteride.
hi i have been on 1.25 mg finasteride and 10 mg oral minoxidil (liquid), and i got really great results but I decided to stop oral minoxidil and continue using finasteride minoxidil gives me muscle pain and damaged my jawline. If I stop the minoxidil, will there be shedding? How long will it last? The […]
Doc what would you say the success rate of oral minoxidil is? Will it reverse the loss of my widow’s peak? Hair growth occurs with oral minoxidil. This hair growth is not restricted to the scalp and that is the problem for this drug in women who don’t want body or facial hair. The widow’s […]
Is it necessary to discontinue oral minoxidil for a period of time after hair transplant. Someone said I should stop oral fin for 15 days and oral Minox for 3 months after procedure but I don’t think that’s right? Can you clarify please? Thank you Doctor. I generally tell my patients to take minoxidil until […]
Can you tell my why my oral minoxidil protocol is making me grow hair halfway down my forehead but not in my widows peak area towards the middle of my hairline? This is a complication of minoxidil, not a treatment outcome. Also, the widow’s peak rarely is recovered if it is lost as it doesn’t […]
