Yeah it's definitely had a negative effect on skin. I've always had dark circle problems even more minoxidil but using it 2x gave me racoons eyes lol . So I do it 1x daily. The other thing that helps negate the effects is skin care routine, moisturizer is godsend! It really is a pro cons game...

Yeah I mean progress is really slow my man. Like sometimes I question if I'm balding or regrowing and it's just another she'd (I'd shower and have so much hair in my hand) but then it comes back thicker a little bit. It's still nowhere near it was pre-chemo but I kinda just like I have a mature...

Here's my year and 3 month update. Haven't been taking finasteride as religiously (2-3x a week) but I think I'm slowly gaining regrowth because of minoxidil. Lmk what you guys think!

Hey man, i'm sorta maintaining with gradual regrowth. My hairline looks similar just the hairs are slowly reversing and getting thicker over time. I'll uploaded a pic soon to share.

This is month 11 update of finasteride and about 6 months on minoxidil. Hairline slowly starting to fill in. I'm still going through shedding phases (just had a big one for the last month) and it keeps getting replaced with thicker, healthier hair. Can't wait to hopefully keep seeing results and have my...

Here is my 8 month update of hairline. I think it's starting to slowly fill in. Not gonna lie, the texture of my hair i think is permanently changed from chemo considering it's much thicker but doesn't have the same feel as it did prior to my episode with cancer. Anyhow, eight months of...

Another hairline update since I've noticed more hair growth! I guess this is month 8 that I'm in and this is the short of stuff people start noticing.

Yeah I was shedding like crazy the first 3-4 months. I had so much hair all over the sink and when I sortered and looked at my hands it was covered in hair. My shedding I think finally stopped 6 months in.

It's sort of insane that I'm growing hair in places I had when I was 16 hairline-wise. At this rate, there's no reason those vellus hair's shouldn't keep reverse minituarizing(right?!) , especially since I added minoxidil. Anyhow, it hasn't even been a year and i just started incorporating...

Here's my seven month finasteride and two or so month minoxidil update. Hair tsxrure on top is great but still missing a lot of hair. My hair looks so much better than it did prior to starting treatment and I think the minoxidil is working as I have so much hair growing on my hairline. What do...

You're absolutely right. Considering my situation and how bad my baldness is at 25, it's probably a good idea to stay on minoxidil. The other thing is, I've been on and off of minoxidil for two long periods of time so I think my hair is gonna be pretty minoxidil dependent regardless since each...

Hey I'm about 5 months in and here's another update. Hair is definitely increasing in thickness slowly but surely. More and more small hairline hairs appear. I'm wondering if I should just take the leap and start minoxidil or wait it out another 6 months before trying it? I'm gonna just use...

Yeah. I really don't think the puffy eyes with black underneath and the overall change in my skin texture over a year was due to natural aging. I got off of it and my skins back to normal.

I wanted to upload this pic to show how my hairline has all these blonde hairs that were not here, and they're getting longer. You can really see them when looking from an angle. Also to update on my shedding and be more clear; I've been shedding since stopping minoxidil back in August 2017...

Update from today. More little hairs sprouting, about 4 months into finasteride. A lot less shedding as well.
