So although ive been experiencing a constant annoying itch / dandruff (looks like skin is peeling off) for about 4-5 months. my pictures suggest i havent gotten any worse although i feel like im worse off. i discontinued minoxidil 2 days ago and will be off for two weeks to see in my scalp gets better perhaps i need a break from it.. if it gets better i will resume minoxidil but only once a day. hopefully this happens. ive been on all shamppos nizoral 1% and 2%, tgal tsal which dont really do much at all. been on finasteride for about 7.5 months and other then quitting minoxidil 2 days ive have been on it for 8.5 months

both pictures are after a buzzcut from the same barber and under the same lighting. picture marked index is before and picture marked da is after. (both are a #2 on top)

I think your hair looks fuller/better in the "da" picture.

I agree with you although in person I still believe my hair looks the same and this itch gives me no peace of mind .. If I could get rid of the itch I'd be content with waiting out the months to see poss results

This might be weird, but try not to think about the itch. I notice that sometimes when I think to myself "Wow I haven't scratched my head in a while" that my head becomes itchy. I personally do believe that the male pattern baldness itch can sometimes be psychological.

you may be right man but theirs no denying the dandruff / dead skin that just sits on my crown area

If minoxidil is really causing the scalp to itch/dandruff how long after discontinuing the product should i feel relief? only been off 2 days still have a constant itch
