Plan for starting fiansteride first, Thoughts?
Age – 28M. Hairline started receding since I was 18, but nothing crazy. Visited dermatologist and I was diagnosed with Male Pattern Baldness. I am currently between NW2-NW3, with M shape hairline. I was prescribed finastride 1mg, Topical minoxidil 5%, PRP sessions, and kit of multivatims. I refused for minoxidil, ’cause i wanted to wait for atleast 6 months to see the results of fin can provide on it’s own. No to monthly PRP sessions cause it was costly and provided temporary results. No to multivatims, cause I believe they don’t have significant impact, and will opt for natural way to get my set of vitamins. My question: Am I good with fin alone in the beginning? Should I consider multivitamins? I know this is subjective, but when can one expect to notice results of fin?
I like your thought process and think starting with just finasteride and giving it 9 months to see if you respond is a good approach. You might add microneedling as a good adjunct to kick-start the follicles.
