What Works Other Than Propecia and Minoxidil?

Hello everybody
My name is Daniel, I'm 25, been using Minoxidil 5% for about 4 or 5 years now with pretty decent results. lately, my hair has become thinner than it has ever been and I came to realize that the Minoxidil isn't holding it anymore, so I went to the doctor and got a prescription for Propecia, I was aware of the side effects and I truly believed that they are mostly psychological, but it didn't take long for me to get those infamous side effects, so I gave up on that pill after about two months.
I'm alright with the amount of hair I have right now, I guess, but I'm definitely riding toward the tipping point of no return, so I'm wondering: what else works, other than the big two?
Things I've considered and ruled out: transplants, hair systems (wigs), councilers.
Thanks a lot,
Daniel.

RU and dutasteride (some get sides on finasteride but not on dutasteride and vice-versa).

Hey thanks, but what's RU?
Also, I'm looking for a treatment that has no risk of erectile dysfunction, as I have had a VERY embarrassing experience with Propecia that I wish to never have to go through again, it got me more depressed than I have ever been about hair loss, and I just thank God that a lot of alcohol was involved in the situation or else I wouldn't even have an excuse.

RU58841 has a safe profile but it's not guaranteed to be sides free.
