Been on Fina 1mg daily and minoxidil twice daily for 10+ years. I finally decided to reduce my fina dosage to 0.5mg daily, and now I feel minoxidil sides much more than before. Does that make sense? If my DHT levels increase, could that make Minoxidil more sensitive to sides?

I would be careful about changing anything if you have good maintenance currently. Titrating upwards too much or downwards can really stress the hair system and often sheds can occur quickly.
