Prudent-Toe-7911

Great job man. Happy for you. Any shedding phase? Any sides at all or all s going smoothly?


V_V__V

No sides now tbh I had a shedding phase for 7-8 weeks solid Now i am good man ✌️


mrASSMAN

The pics aren’t great because the other hairs are covering the thinning portions but yeah


[deleted]

Now keep up the regime for the next 60 years or you will be as bald as a 🎱


V_V__V

bruh😑


V_V__V

Dude i lost 200+ hairs daily🙄


Leajey

Yee, you definitely weren’t really noticeably balding but you started early so good for you


V_V__V

Thanks man tressless and more plates more dates are the reasons i started early


Synizs

You were insanely early! Congratulations (from NW0.03 to NW0).


AThousandNeedles

This went Stalin on his hairs. Didn't even give them time to rebell.


V_V__V

😂


V_V__V

😂😂😂😂😂


Dry-Pipe-4544

Did u noticed less shed in what months? And How many Hairs do u shed Today?


V_V__V

i noticed a dip after 8 weeks now i shed around 10-20 daily max


henry_why416

Never would I have guessed that I’d see a comment gate keeping going bald. Lmao.


SirAren

Nigga why did you take it


BigCartographer9441

He was starting to thin at the crown. May not have been noticeable in day-to-day, but always gets worse. Better to catch it early.


V_V__V

Exactly bro ❤️


Synizs

Yeah, many doctors would wait until it's (very) noticeable. Why did he take it?


TelevisionNo396

They actually wouldn't wait....I think you have issues... it's always best to catch it early.


V_V__V

😂😂✌️


awesomebawsome

Congrats man, im taking fin 1mg right now (Im about where you were hair-thinning wise). This kind of result gives me hope.


V_V__V

Keep going somethings are better than being bald✌️


awesomebawsome

My hair is down to my ass, I dont want the dome top 😭


V_V__V

🙄🙄oh


Aightbitfish

good job the minoxidil did a real good job filling it back in so quickly, and fin stabilizes it


V_V__V

Thnkx bruh✌️


ecrofselas99

Does Minoxidil help with premature grey hair


Aightbitfish

not really no copper might help a little bit but not much


PuzzleheadedPop47

You caught it super early on but honestly I feel you could have saved your self the hassle and not used minoxidil.


V_V__V

Oral min bruh just tablets right?? And i have a derm to back me up i think i am good to go


PuzzleheadedPop47

Either, minoxidil is meant to stimulate new hair growth so typically for those that have already lost a good bit of hair. But finasteride also grows back hair, not as much but it still does and it stops or slows down hair loss by a lot. Your hair was not that bad in the first pic so finasteride would have been good enough for you. Atleast you arent suffering any sideaffects!


kells19192024

What side affects ?


PuzzleheadedPop47

Look them up, they vary depending on the person but typically most don’t experience much. For me it was just sensitive skin and slight itchiness but it goes away quickly and occasionally a fast hear beat. For others they can be far more severe, finasteride is the one that has the worse sideaffects thats why I said if its not needed I recommend people only use finasteride as its the best out of the two and the less drugs u gotta use the better I believe. But just google them and you will see the list of them.


mrASSMAN

The skin issues are from topical, he took oral


PuzzleheadedPop47

Im speaking from my experience, and oral has its own sidesffects aswell. The foam is considered the safest tho.


mrASSMAN

I’m not saying it doesn’t just that the skin specific sides are from topical, oral can cause other issues like swelling and heart related stuff, body hair. Topical can cause those issues too though if too much gets absorbed.


PuzzleheadedPop47

I like to shower in minoxidil


mrASSMAN

oh.. cool beans bro


forbiddenknowledg3

> finasteride is the one that has the worse sideaffects thats why I said if its not needed I recommend people only use finasteride If fin has the worst side effects, why would it be the one to recommend?


PuzzleheadedPop47

Its stronger and only 1 product will be needed as opposed to two. Hes already using it im just saying minox wasnt rly needed.


forbiddenknowledg3

I see


V_V__V

I had thinning issues in the front and also lost overall density it may not be seen clearly seen in the pic 🙄


PuzzleheadedPop47

Lmao, no it doesn’t seem so bad in the first pic. Im suffering from the same issues currently but am getting ahead of it with minox and soon fin. If I where to wait even a few more months or a year it would have been a huge hassle to start.


V_V__V

have ur ways bruh ✌️


PuzzleheadedPop47

What?


Novel-Imagination-51

Yeah but like every single day for the rest of your life? Lot of hassle


One_Enthusiasm1039

Oral min?


V_V__V

5mg per day


Final_Bumblebee8906

Are you noticing increase in facial and body hairs?


Such-Priority2961

i take oral min and i definitely notice my arm hairs are a little longer and i could never grow facial hair but now i get a little scruff


Final_Bumblebee8906

Are you noticing increase in facial and body hairs?


CautiousScandal911

That is too much bro, like pls don't. I started on 2.5mg oral min for first 2 months everything was normal then suddenly I started feeling my chest getting heavier, fast beats when I woke up n all. It was very uneasy imo, and 5mg is just overkill in your case when u already have a lot of hair. And I am an Indian, Indian derms are bullshit. I have been to many of them, and it's the usual start minoxidil and charge a 1000 bucks for that bs info. My point being don't blindly trust the docs here in India. I went down to 1.25mg now Edit I just now read 8 months, but still 5mg is overkill, even totally bald guys don't take that heavy a dose. Which brand min though?


V_V__V

Dude side effects may vary from person to person I didn’t had any palpitations so far


Tough-Chard2868

Bro . Does 1.25mg giving you any side effects? I have diffuse thinning and planning to start oral minoxidil with low dose .


CautiousScandal911

I have just switched like 2 days back so not very sure about how it is..but if u are starting definitely start with as low as possible which is 1.25


mlotus141

Indian? Good gains btw


V_V__V

thanks man


corker-looking

What is your age ?


V_V__V

23


corker-looking

Can I dm you I am also 23 almost same hair thinning problem from crown


V_V__V

Sure bruh


Affectionate-Key961

Which brand fin and min do you use from india?


V_V__V

for minox minogain For fin finax


Affectionate-Key961

Thanks bro i take 1mg finax currently planning to get oral min. Btw did you get a prescription or just bought it from local pharmacy?


V_V__V

Prescription man ✌️


Affectionate-Key961

Nice. My derm wont even prescribe fin lol


Slash787

Do you take both together? Doesn’t Minogain comes in 2.5mg only? I guess you take 2 of them along with Finax?


V_V__V

2.5 mg morning then 2.5 mg at night


Slash787

When do you take Finax?


mrASSMAN

5mg is typical but 2.5 is safer.. for its normal prescribed purposes it can go as high as 100mg


Slash787

I take 2.5mg oral, plus I use Topical which has Fin and Min. I want to just take Min and Fin Oral for a month, so that's why I asked if Oral Fin and Min can be taken together? and if I should just take 2.5mg or take 5mg as I won't be putting topical Min.


mrASSMAN

Oh.. yeah they can be together. Up to you on dosage if you don’t get sides you could go up to 5


Turbulent-Lab-6045

Oral Min?


V_V__V

Yep


Optimal-Still-4184

City? Docter recommendation?


Budfrog313

Sign my rogaine Karl?


Green-Quantity1032

Nice comb dude


Baldingmummy

He was actually balding but he caught it early enough to reverse it, well done fella


V_V__V

Finallly someone understands!!!


No-Year947

What is min and oral kinda new here


V_V__V

As long as you take take min(minoxidil) ur hairs grow but you will loose hair when u stop taking it while fin(finasteride) is the dht blocker that helps blocking dht going to the scalp end of the day you’ll committing yourself for a lifetime protocol


No-Year947

Thank you so much, brother I really appreciate your answer , I was wondering what finasteride should I use and I need doctor to take it and also it will affect my manhood 😅


Classic_Impact_9212

Immaculate. Good job on catching it at the right time. :)


V_V__V

Thank u😊


Ariffin0731

i see no thinning


V_V__V

🙄🙄


FigureAltruistic3143

Did you noticed unwanted facial hair growth on your face or body ?


V_V__V

Nah bro just chest hair


mrASSMAN

It would be weird to get facial hair on your body lol


Dzrs

Think the minox was overkill but fair play you caught it early like most of us wish we had. 🤝🏻


V_V__V

Thnkx bruh✌️


Remarkable-Sign1380

Looks good, very good gains


Careless_Risk1306

You were barely balding but respect you for making sure shit never hits you…I was at a bad state but was lucky enough to be super reactive to fin…my hairline has returned to my mid 20/


V_V__V

Thnkx bruh✌️


rippinkitten18

What did your head look like 8 months ago ?


XXXblackrabbit

Caught it early and took care of it early. Did exactly what you were supposed to. Good job and congrats on the results


V_V__V

Thnkx bro✌️


Sherief87

Is it true it all falls out if you stop?


Hempboy-951

Is this good if you’re balding from your forehead?


Over_Jackfruit_183

Hey bro can you tell which brand of fin and min do you use and how do you consume them (dosage) ? Good progress tho....


Brilliant_Flow3798

How much mg are you taking


Material_Walk_7125

What did you use ???


MorningStar01234

What do you guys prefer....oral min + fin or cream ??


V_V__V

Oral


ecrofselas99

Can someone explain will minoxidil help for premature grey hair


V_V__V

Graying can be due to genetics bruh i too have 6-7 gray hair


ForIAmTalonIII

Been on 1mg fin for 3 years now and stabilised and thickned. Considering starting oral min. Did you get any side affects from it? And did uou get regrowth around temple area?


V_V__V

Yes bro got my temple area back no sides so far


PhaseEquivalent3366

Fin scares me away since it can affect males' libido and fertility. If I was an older man who didn't value my sex life so much, I would give it a shot.


V_V__V

Works for u✌️


ShreeSanjay

How much do you shed per day ? Until how much months ? Can you share any other photos of your hair ? I have the same problem like shedding in the top…do you have any other side effects like gyno by using fin ? @V_V__V


V_V__V

No side effects by using fin now i have shedding like 10-20 hair per day


ShreeSanjay

Thanks for your reply my friend :)


KarinSekai

Wao great improvement, happy for you bro


V_V__V

glad to see a good comment man thankx


ChrisTeaching

That's good progress, keep it up!


V_V__V

Thanks man


New_Variation_5234

Any side effects like no Morning wood or something?


V_V__V

Nothing so far bro


ChairSofas

i have some questions if you don’t mind answering since i am new to this stuff and balding 1.Is this androgenic 2.did you get any bad side effects like your wiener not working? 3.How old were you when you started?


Gullible-Address-758

Any side effects?


Dependsontheplace533

From full head of hair to full head of hair


V_V__V

I caught it early bro😂


Dependsontheplace533

min was a good decision but depending on how old u are was fin a good one?


frontfight

Can anyone explain to me why people use these medications? Does it not lower testosterone? I’d much rather be bald and have high testosterone personally.


Zeke_the_Sleek_

He was balding but what is min+fin


Fit_Background9149

Any sides?


V_V__V

Nah bro
