Hey guys, does anyone know how long minoxidil can be used by itself before its needed to add in fin or dut? Im 17 and my left temple is getting absolutely fucking destroyed with miniaturization, but im not even done with puberty, is it realistic to think minoxidil can hold off the norwood reaper until 19 or so?

Use it for life daily and perfect adherence it might be enough on its own tbh

Really? I heard that with male pattern baldness, minoxidil only works at first, but loses its effectiveness as you continue to expose the hairs to DHT. I just wonder if it can buy me a couple years, or only a couple months

Im also planning to use it 2x a day, and I use ketoconazole shampoo as well but not sure how well that works
 
Well it can promote hair regrowth but scalp dht is still there so hair fall wont stop :Comfy:

So am I basically fucked until I finish puberty?
It really depends if you are lucky enough i have noticed crown thinning when i was 18 and i waited a year and a half before starting fin my dad doesnt have MPB or any family member in that matter but my maternal uncles do have it so i think my hairloss gene wasn't that strong iam now nw2 at 21 and i have only used min for a short time when i head you gotta keep using it or the regrowth won't stay so if you can hold onto that hairline nw2-nw3 then use min for now if it goes past nw3 hop on

Interesting, my dad got to nw2.5-3 in his 20s and is still there in his 40s, and my grandpa had nw4 in his 60s, none of them went fully bald but it seems like they recede early on, in my case its giga early tho

Were you above nw2 before taking treatment or just stayed the same?

No when i started taking it in nw2 my temples were in bad shape and my crown started thinning i honestly thought i would get to nw3 in a year but it stayed the same thin hairs around both temples started falling off and started growing back i saw regrowth in those places and crown got thicker so even tho i have lost hair density i got most of it back and my hairline didn't recede further
