Hey there, I have been using minoxidil(liquid) for 7 months in the first 3 months there was a lot of shedding so I shaved my hair, after 2 months my hair regrow a bit thicker but it was slowly than before so I decided to add finasteride and I am on it for 1.5-2 month
The problem now my hair shedding is increasing and there is dandruff and my scalp gets itchy when I style my hair
So does finasteride work now
And how to stop this itchy scalp(it only goes when I wash my hair or oil it with rosemary)
So what should I do I headed about minoxidil foam but it is expensive here and I think to use only oral finasteride with some oils on hair and oral minoxidil
What do you think is better ?

U only got this scalp itch problem after adding finasteride? I would quit the topical minoxidill and take it orally instead.

Yes it happens only when I add finasteride with hair shedding after 1.5 momths
I am suffering from it for 2 weeks now
I think to just continue on finasteride and use minoxidil foam for once per day instead of 2 doses of solution
