3 Months on Oral Finasteride + Oral Minoxidil – Honest Opinions?
Started treatment in March 2026.
35 years old.
Current regimen:
• Finasteride 1 mg daily
• Oral Minoxidil 2.5 mg daily
• Microneedling every 10 days (Dr. Pen M8S)
• Daily supplements containing Biotin and AnaGain™
I experienced noticeable shedding during the first few weeks and still seem to be shedding somewhat.
The left photo is from March when I started treatment.
The right photo is from today, approximately 3 months later.
Lighting and hair length are not perfectly identical, so I'm trying to stay objective.
Personally, I think I'm seeing increased density throughout the thinning area and less visible scalp overall, but I'd appreciate some unbiased opinions.
No Toppik or hair fibers on photo.
Do you think this looks like genuine regrowth/thickening, or am I being overly optimistic?
Any feedback is appreciated.
