Pretty much what the title says; I (M27) caught my hair loss pretty early and started treatment in 2024. I did jump around a bit to start but I’ve been consistent with my current plan for a little over a year now.
Was on topical fin/min combined treatment from Hims - February to August, 2024
Transitioned to only 1mg oral fin every day, dropping min entirely, from August to present
Added 0.5mg oral dut twice a week (Monday/Friday), from March 2025 to present.
I appear to have no results; like I said, I caught my hairloss very early (Norwood 1-1.5). I am now more or less at a Norwood 3, which I conceal with hair fibers and styling to look more like a Norwood 1.5-2. I don’t feel as though my hairloss has slowed. I appear to be thinning more aggressively on the left side of my hairline, and the hair appears to still be thinner behind the frontal scalp section. I can confirm I have visibly continue to lose hair and continue thinning, though the actual shape of my hairline remains generally intact.
I plan to add oral min 2.5mg oral min daily starting this weekend. I’d have gone back on it earlier but I was trying to prevent further loss before I did.
But is there any point? I’m concerned I’m goo by to just keep losing hair and not even realize it. I wanted to stabilize before adding Min but I’m starting to feel like that’s not going to happen.
