Maybe I can help, I did the same as you. I used min (without anyting else) for like a year, grew all hair back, then I stopped and I ended up a diffuse thinner which was much worse than before.
male pattern baldness simply progresses and treatments work best the less progressed male pattern baldness is.
I do know it has nothing to do with the min besides the initial shedding it causes when starting or stopping which may be your case but 9 months is pushing it.
The min basicly blinded me from realizing how much worse my hair had gotten in that 1 year I was succeding. When I stopped, and then re started 3 months later, I realized! I eventually started getting back to where I was (now at 11 months).
You maybe responding to the Dutasteride and that is a good thing.
Since you already re started, you have to keep going otherwise its pointless.
Things will get worse before they get better and you may not respond the same as you did before like me.
Make a plan on what you can do with yourself! It will take time to grow hair and if your going to hide in your house while waiting for success, do something productive. Thats what I'm doing.
When I reach my goal for desired hair count, I have this whole plan worked out that is going to be amazing. I've had a lot of time to think these last couple of years and things are starting to pay off.
