Ever since i remember ive been shedding pretty bad (and im 16 now) i dont have a receding hairline but the shedding has been terrorizing the crown, sides of the hairline and the front/top of the scalp/head. I went to the dermatologist and he said its ok if i take minoxidil. ive been using minoxidil 5% foam pretty much everyday since october 15th 2013. the box says to wait like 3-4 months for results. im pretty much in the same place ive started except: ive been seeing some very small hairs growing on the hairline itself. im not sure if they will become anything or they're just trying to mock me.

So heres what i came for: should i keep using minoxidil, should i take some kind of pills, should i stop? to be honest im new to this community.
ANY help is good help.

I dont know what to do

Try liquid minoxidil, it's more effective. Get on spiroloacetone, try revivigen. If you want to risk finasteride, it is the most effective treatment, but it reduces DHT by 65%. DHT is responsible for secondary sex characteristics development, but if you're very physically developed for your age then it's a bit less risky. Most people would tell you to wait until you're 18 to try finasteride. Whether you want to risk it at 16 is your choice, it is the best chance you have of saving your hair. You need to weigh up the pros and cons. minoxidil, spironolactone and revivogen are less effective but safer.

Don't get onto pills. They have nasty side effects, esp. for someone of your age. You should use some hair regrowth shampoos and minoxidil spray. You can search around for the best brands. By continuing use of both, your hair should regrow over time.
