Hello i'm 18 and I noticed some hair loss at around 16 but nothing severe.
Things got worse at 17 and I got prescribed minoxidil 5% from my dermatologist (1 x daily).
I have been using minoxidil for a year now.
Now i'm 18, and my situation got worse, I get hands full of hair each day I wash my hair, also my pillow has 25+ hair on it after each sleep, i'm thinning (Doctor said diffusing) on top of my head.
My dermatologist prescribed me finasteride (1/4 Prostide pills) and lately i'm really thinking i should take these meds.
My mother said I shouldn't take them and try something else, but I really don't want to lose my hair yet, at this age & I can't seem to find other products that actually help (or they don't ship to my country).
My confidence is at a -20%, I ditched all my friends and I just stay at home all the time.
Could anyone please advise me, what the hell should i do?
