HB,
Nice! I'm a diffuse thinner (not sure if I'm DPA or DUPA though?) and it's good to hear another having regrowth.
Are your diffuse in "patches" on the top of your head or is the whole thing thinning out consistently? I have more of patchy thinning on top where there's still some very thick areas. I'm hoping the thinner areas will thicken up soon and fill in!
I see in your regimen you're not using #3 of the Big Three with Nizoral?

Where did you apply the minoxidil? Did you put it in the thinned receded area only? Or did you apply some minoxidil right behind your healthy hair as well?

congrats on the results man!
one question, did u experience any shedding? I ask b/c I've been on the big 3 for 9 months and had hairline/temple regrowth similar to yours (not as good though). However, now I'm experiencing a shed and lost a lot of the regrowth and a lot of hair elsewhere as well. Just wondering if you've lost some of that regrowth sometime during your treatment and if it grew back, how long did it take?

yes, minoxidil gave me some growth before i got on finasteride, but it worked better after adding finasteride.
i was on minoxidil before, i had the luxury of finasteride. it worked quite well for nearly 10 years before i started losing ground. adding finasteride has given new life to the minoxidil.

with the dropper i just poke through diffuse areas; dragging the dropper over the scalp; very little or no pressure on the squeeze bulb.
with the foam, i use roughly 3/4 capful. I apply about 1/4 of it at a time in quadrants, instead of trying to spread the whole blob through my hair.
