Hey everyone... 7th month of finasteride ending... Hair has only gotten worse... much worse.. and now, my entire scalp is itching again, and shedding as much hair as i did during my initial propecia shed.. However, i still plan to stick with finasteride for a year to decide..

this is my question.. should i lay off the minoxidil/copper peptides for a few days to see if the itch goes away? For me, the way i see it, when i itch, i lose hair... and i itch more with any kind of topicals.. so i can try to stop the irritation by breaking from minoxidil for a few days.. make sense to anyone??

I would give the min a break. In fact I am giving the min a break! I stopped just over a week ago and my head hardly itches now. I used min for around two years and my hair continued to fall out so it is debatable whether it ever did anything for me. My head itched and felt like crap for two years and it was most likely for nothing!
