For the thin hair I'd try adding nizoral shampoo 2-3 times a week. I, like you, suffer from having thin hair and I've been using it for a few weeks. I like the way it thickens my hair and enables me to style it with greater ease. It also has androgen blocking properties which should also help to...

If it helps, I'm currently on day 10 of finasteride and not a single side in sight! I've told myself not to think about the negatives; I think some suffer may suffer from 'phantom' sides. As GoldenMane said, give it a try and see what happens! Stay positive!

Not sure if it's the minoxidil or not but I seem to have a bit of an itchy scalp today, I'm hope it's just coincidence! I'll see what happens over the next few days and decide what to do from there; possibly change to once a day for a while. I've also noticed a few more hairs coming out when I...
