Question about taking min and fin

Hi guys, so I’ve ordered minox and finasteride, but I’ve read on here that a lot of people notice something called a “dead shred” when taking minox, causing their hair to look worse than it initially did and sometimes not even improving.

So my hair actually isn’t too bad, but feel like I’m receding on the corners. I have no idea if this is my mature hairline or actually going back and thinning.

I’m thinking of just taking the finasteride and leaving the minox due to the shedding.

My question is, if I just take the finasteride, can I still grow the corners back? I know it stops it but I also want the corners to thicken back up and be like they was 2 years ago when I was 20.

Is it worth it to take minox I’m scared

I really don’t know if I’m receeding or maturing, I can’t remember what hairline used to look like however I have a photo from when I was 14 of it.

I’ve been reading up on this Reddit about minox and heard some horrific experiences of people having healthy hair but just receeding a bit and loosing most their hair which terrifies me as hair is massive for me.

Just been to a GP/clinician about receding hair

So I booked a doctors appointment to see if I was actually balding/receeding and I didn’t really get a proper answer and was told things I already knew.

This year and late last year I started to properly look at my hairline one night and ever since been looking at it a lot. I have noticed the corners to be recessed, and have noticed when I part my hairline the hair is quite thin, but I can’t remember if it’s always been this way.

The doctor told me to try and part it a different side, and that my temples do look recessed and that it’s normal for people my age, and that it can either stop where it is now or continue to go back further. She said I can take minox or finest, but they have side effects.

She didn’t actually diagnose me with hair loss or a receeding hairline which was annoying.

I’m genuinely so stuck on what to do, whether to go on the treatment or just leave it and there’s a chance it could be natural…

So about 3 months ago I bought a free trail for a product on my phone, completely forgot then ended up paying 85 pound for the year for it. I’ve only just realised, and with apples policy they can only do a refund in 60 days, but the support person said they’ve filed a refund report for me, but I’m unlikely to get it because I’ve done it after the refund time frame.

Is there a way to manifest the refund actually coming through and my getting this money back that would mean so much to me, I didn’t use the app once after the trail so it’s a massive kick in the teeth.
