Drugs like finasteride and dutasteride, usually reverse miniaturized hairs, and not grow hair in a completely bald man; however, some men have very fine miniaturized hairs that they didn’t know existed on their bald head, so I have seen some cases where these men, who thought they were bald, grew hair on finasteride. The photo […]

Mid 40s, started losing hair in my early 20s. It progressed pretty slowly but consistently over the years and I figured I would let it gracefully fall out. A couple years ago it went into fallout over drive and I’m just not ready to give it up quit yet. Pretty sure the copious amount of […]
Almost every man who is balding is a responder to finasteride or dutasteride, but the response will be slowing the loss, stopping it, or reversing it. Slowing is hard to show, but there are excellent long-term studies comparing men on finasteride for five years compared with those not on any drug. The finasteride group kept […]
I had good hair until 35 almost 36 when my hair started to aggressively thin. Started fin in 2019. The regrowth hasn’t been as good as I would have liked. My crown had never experienced any major balding like my front did. Finasteride has definitely stopped the aggressive progression but only some mild regrowth. Not […]
Does finasteride eventually stop working over time to either regrow or maintain hair for everyone that takes it as their genes for balding take over? Finasteride maintains benefits; however, your hair’s ability to stop its eventual pattern may not be stopped by finasteride, just slowed down. I have seen men on finasteride for 15-20 yrs […]
Great result with the disappearance of the corner recession. It also appears that the hairline has filled out, suggesting that it reversed miniaturization in the hairline.
Asking a bald person that question is great. We know finasteride slows balding down and can reverse it in men under 25 with some predictability. The problem is: At 18, many men don’t show balding. But if you start taking finasteride when a man notices it, it will likely change the course of the balding, […]
Your crown is fuller, and best of all, the hair thinning didn’t progress.
This man is clearly sensitive to the medications and the microneedling
I am 37 years old and had this balding for 10 years. I started using 1 mg PO finasteride daily 1 ml topical minoxidil twice daily 1 biotin vitamin daily, Saw palmetto shampoo, plus 0.5 mm micro needling at home 2-3 times per week. I would increase the microneedling needles to 1.25mm and reduce the […]
Over and over again I see these medications working with microneedling. Nice results
So three months ago, I decided to hop on a min/fin 0.1% formula that made my derm (my anxiety and depression were still strong during this time). I applied it once a day in the mornings. The formula really works, in only these three months, I have recovered a lot of my hair to the […]
Great change in the hairline in this man.
Statistically, based upon the original Marck studies, 0.25 mgs daily was 50% effective. Every other day will reduce its effectiveness even further. It will have some value, but certainly not like 1mg/day. If this is a way to slowly increase the dosage every few weeks until you get to a real solid dose of at […]
