minor hair loss, confused over regimen?

[novikuez]

Hi guys,
You all heard this more than once but plz read one more time, as I got confused a little.

I am 23, and have a minor hair loss, I am a 2 on the Norwood, however the left side is shedding more .

So far, I stopped the inflamation with Nizoral 1% and want to move to 2% alternating with T-Gel. So far happy with the effects, but I guess I can do more. I dont want to take any pills. Dont want to take any risk as my condition is not dramatic.

1. Seems like the only options are: minoxidil and Revivogen, true?
2. They say, no side effects, but will I loose what I gained with these?
3. If I want to try both, what brands and strengths should I get?
4. Any particular multivitamins?
5. Shampoos other than nizoral, volumiznig, thickenning?

Thanks,
Novy

Minoxidil will not halt male pattern baldness. Only DHT-inhibitors like Finasteride will do this. Revivogen is an unproven treatment.

2. They say, no side effects, but will I loose what I gained with these?

Eventually, and/or if you stop using them - yes.

3. If I want to try both, what brands and strengths should I get?

I've seen many people around here recommend Dr. Lee's fast drying Minoxidil, but any 5% solution should do. I can't recommend Revivogen since, beside the fact that it's an unproven treatment, I don't know much about it.

4. Any particular multivitamins?

Vitamins won't do much at all for your hair if your eating habits are not horrifying. They might still be good for your general health though.

5. Shampoos other than nizoral, volumiznig, thickenning?

Might be a good idea.
