As the above poster suggested, a low dose of oral minoxidil is something you could consider. It is definitely more effective than topical minoxidil, due in part to the fact that topical minoxidil's efficacy is dependent upon your body having enough of a specific enzyme that varies considerably between different people, while oral minoxidil does not depend on the amount of this enzyme that you have in order to work effectively. I've just obtained some oral minoxidil myself. I plan to take it at 1.25mg a day, possibly going up to 2.5mg after a few months if I find I can tolerate the lower dose okay.
