Hi all,
I've noticed that my hair has been thinning quite a bit in the last year.
I went to a dermatologist who said it was a clear case of Male Pattern Baldness (it runs in the family).

I've tried accepting it but it's really playing with my self confidence.
After doing some research I decided that I can't take the risk of using propecia/finsasteride at such a young age.

Blood tests proved I had low iron level but I'm still going to go ahead with using minoxidil in addition to iron supplements.

I'm unsure if using the liquid or foam would be better. I can only comitt to once daily so wasn't sure what would be best. I tried the liquid but it leaves my hair really greasy and scarily thin.

What can you guys advise?

Foam is not much better in how it leaves your hair. If you're only doing it once daily then just apply it at night before going to bed.

Foam is sh*t. Liquid best option.
