Suggestions? Keto + LLLT working, can’t do Min, finasteride, or dutasteride

I’m a Norwood 2 in the front, about a 4.5 in the crown. I’m a male in his mid 40s, but health monitoring shows I’m biologically early-mid 30s (high five!) Pretty much every male in my family goes to about a Norwood 6.

The first successful thing I tried over a decade ago was Nizoral and it did a bang up job slowing down my hair loss. I use it every day.

The second was an LLLT helmet. I started with an iRestore Pro which slowed down the loss further, and then switched to a Theradome Pro three years ago which pretty much halted my loss completely, so that’s great. I use that every day as well!

Min, finasteride, and dutasteride are all off the table for me for medical reasons, and I tried essential oils and microneedling for months and months without any results.

Since I’ve managed to basically stop the hair loss, it would be amazing if I could actually start to get some regrowth now, as who knows how far I can go. Do you have any suggestions, either internal or external, which I should add to my regimen to stand a chance to start getting regrowth? Thank you so much!

PS- in the interim, gotta give a shout out to Toppik as it has been great when I go out and really does do the trick.

You could try aggressive head massage. Few good YouTube vids on the subject. Blood flow is always a good thing for hair.
