Its been 3 months since i started finasteride and 2 months since i bumped minoxidil dosage from 1x per day to 2x per day. So far ive got no progress really, just a few of those very small hairs sprouting on my hairline (but ive always had some peach fuzz in my temple area so it may be my head playing tricks on me, im not sure), and i believe its less thick overall.
Questions:
1- Is there hope for hairline regrowth in a few months or If i haven't gotten it so far I never will?
2- I get some flaking from extra minoxidil residue or dry skin, should I keep using Nizoral? I haven't used it that much because it dries my scalp so i feel it may not be helping a lot.
3- My right temple has been red for the last one or two weeks in the place where i apply minoxidil and ive been getting 1 or 2 pimples in that area. Is there something i can do to stop that redness? Ive been applying some sweet almond oil and some olive oil but it hasnt helped much. Ive ordered some castor oil to see if it helps.
Thank you.
