Im 19 been balding since i was 17.
First started minoxidil a little over 2 years ago and used it 1x per day
8 month ago I started finasteride 5mg every 5 days and after a 1month break from it uped minoxidil to 2x per day.
Also about 3 months ago i added retin a to the temples 1x per day
This month due to lack of results I decided to go back to minoxidil 1x per day and do the standart 1.25mg finasteride ED(although 5mg every 5 days is supposed to be the same).
Results:
2 YEARS AGO - While only on minoxidil I lost a lot of hair from thick nw1 with LITTLE thinning on the right temple to diffuse NW2.5
8 MONTHS AGO - In month 3 to 6 my shedding when down by a lot and got a few little hairs on my left temple. Ever since month 7 shedding has picked back up and now im shedding like hell. Right temple continues to get worse. And left temple is getting really thin despite the small hairs.
Questions:
What should I do now? Should I go for dutasteride or RU?
Should i expect a big shed from dropping minoxidil to 1x per day?
Any help will be appreciated
