Does Anyone Else Take Supplements For Hair?

I take zinc Citrate 50mg and B6 100mg vitamins daily along with my minoxidil and finasteride pills ( dropping finasteride soon though ) and i feel it has a positive effect on my hair. Im thinking of adding in biotin too. So, who else is on supps and what ones?

I used to take biotin until I realized it isn't worth it and that finasteride is what you need not some supplements with dubious effects.

Supplements alone obviously wont fix the male pattern baldness problem, but when you are having success with scientifically researched treatments dont you think that would enhance the effects of the supplements? Just look at the results of biotin on women.. they dont have pattern hair loss but it does give a noticeable improvement.

I take zinc and vitamin D3.I've been on the D3 for a few months now after blood work showed a deficiency, haven't noticed any improvements in anything tbh. As for zinc, I've been on it in the past but recently started it up again. I don't know if it does much other than give me more vivid dreams, but it's said to help with acne and hair so let's see. I'll update if I see any changes.

There's very little evidence that natural supplements do anything for male pattern baldness. Natural supplements have other benefits and are good for your overall health, but they won't stop your hair from falling out.

Many people seem to forget vitamin D is very vital for hair and creating new hair. Im not saying vitamin D vill solve your problems, but dont do the typical mistake by only focusing on vitamin B.

Is is true finasteride will have a positive effect on all your hair (assuming you respond to it) and not merely the areas where you’ve lost hair? I’m sure I read that on here before but I’ve been unable to relocate it.
