I've been using the topical for a year, and I have responded to it and seen some regrowth. But I wonder- How much more of a boost in hair comes from the oral form?

That's a good question. Generally, I think that it's efficacy is stated regarding response rate and not according to the volume of regrown hair. Compared to topical minoxidil which never grew any hair for me, oral min seems almost like an HRT med but it might work better combined with HRT and it probably works better for chemical females. I post lots of pics but there is little way to tell which growth is "oral min" growth and which is HRT growth.
