    Losing hair since mid 15's

    Yeah am 19 next month and it sucks badly. I've ordered some minoxidil to try but I personally don't want to start finasteride just yet; Hopefully everything will be okay. Just awful that my temples are receding while all my brother's have better hairlines than me in their late 20s *sigh*...

    Losing hair since mid 15's

    It's hard to recommend treatment to you because of your age. I'd recommend trying minoxidil first until your 18. Then if you want to, and you outweigh the risks try finasteride. In the mean time using Microneedling and shampoos such as Nizoral and caffeine shampoo might be worth starting.

    Washing hair everyday + ketoconazole 2% every other day. Would it be harmful?

    Yes Keto 2% is meant to be used 2-3 times a week for dandruff. Try conditioning your hair after washing maybe 2/3 a week if it's dry; try caffeine shampoo or shampoo such that have ingredients like saw Palmetto to make it thicker/prevent hair loss.

    Scared to try finasteride? How often can I use 2% Nizoral? Is it worth trying Saw Palmetto?

    Okay. What am going to do is use Nizoral 3 times a week. The other days maybe use a caffeine shampoo. I might consider finasteride once I turn 19 which is very soon. Could you recommend a conditioner? Or should I not use one?

    Scared to try finasteride? How often can I use 2% Nizoral? Is it worth trying Saw Palmetto?

    Is taking a low dosage of finasteride every over day effective as taking say 1mg a day do you know?

    Scared to try finasteride? How often can I use 2% Nizoral? Is it worth trying Saw Palmetto?

    Would taking say 0.5mg finasteride still be as effective as 1mg but less likely for sides. It's the permanent long term side effects that some people get that's worries me; I am usually sensitive to medication.
