Wich one is better? I found a source for oral minox. But i heard some people say that topical is better? Its not for hair regrowth, i jut want to keep the hair i have now.
 
Wouldn't dutasteride be better than minoxidil if you're trying to keep your hair?

I prefer Oral because it’s easier to adhere too and it boosts my beard, eyebrows and lashes

But apparently it’s more harmful long term

I think if you can stick to it and respond to Topical, it’s better

Two different things

One blocks hair loss

The other grows it
Yeah, ik dutasteride blocks hair loss and minoxidil grows your hair.

It's just that OP mentioned that they want to keep their hair, not regrow any. So wouldn't dutasteride make more sense in this case?

Well, Dut is the nuclear option

He should start off with Ketaconazole 2% shampoo which blocks DHT topically on the scalp and reduces inflammation and should be a part of every stack anyways

Don't use either one. It can cause heart issues.

Pumpkin Oil is just as effective as minoxidil for hair growth without all the sides

Minox isn’t really an issue for people without pre existing issues

I posted a picture of myself on my account yesterday. Do you think I need hair regrowth? In my opinión its not that bad and it suits me. I already have this hairline for 4 years or so and nobody in my family is bald. So do you think i only need something to lose more hair or also regrowth?

Mirin the physique, but your hairline's cooked brother. Doesn't seem to be receding or anything, you just have a very tall upper third compared to your other facial thirds, which is unideal (ideally as a man you want your lower third to be the tallest).

You could try oral minox and derma-stamping to lower your hairline, but it might be time to look into hairline lowering surgery. Or switch up the hairstyle to hide it.

Hope this helped

Something like this ? I think it fixes it a bit. I like the flow hairstyle i have now, but its not optimal for my head.

Eh, it's a start, but you can still see the hairline, which isn't ideal

To be honest with your specific look I think just looking into ways to lower your hairline is optimal.
