Been using it topically for 3 months now, even upped the dose, still not a single result

Is that normal? Is there something I can do to speed up the process?

you can apply tretinoin or dermaroll the area where you're using minoxidil, or u are just unreceptive

wtf has tret to do with minox ?
But yes for dermaroll
minoxidil only works if you have a basis, I tried it too and I don't think I'll grow a beard or any facial hair anytime soon ( only stache and it's the case for other family members )

I do have the base tho, I mainly use it to try and thicken eyebrows but it didn't do shit either

What brand did you get?
Might have cucked genetics ngl. My eyebrows got pretty thick in like the first 2 months.
(twice a day to speed up results)

tretinoin increases skin cell turnover and exfoliation which in turn makes minoxidil penetrate deeper into the skin, literally the same as dermarolling

Don't know about my genetics, I got a terrorist beard after 2 weeks of not shaving, so it's weird

You may be a non-responder. It's not that uncommon. It's depend on high levels of sulfotransferase enzymes to work.

You're not receptive I've done minoxidil for 1 year and got permanent hair inside ears that I need to shave every month

Hopefully they are blonde hair so not so visible unless lighting in my back

Always hair grew along my penis which is really annoying

Did minox on hairline and eyebrows
 
1. hair cycle takes 4 months
2. dermaroll
3. tret
4. doesnt work on hairline/completely bald areas for most people
