Adding Essential Oils To Ketoconazole Shampoo Seems To Help A Bit

I've added lavender essential oil with 3% concentration (3 mls for every 100 mos of ketoconazole 2% shampoo) and I've been using it 2-3 times per week. This is in conjunction with Minoxidil and dutasteride but I feel like my shedding rate has improved a couple weeks after doing this, it was mentioned some where that lavender oil has anti androgenic properties and that essential oils mixed into shampoos would be absorbed normally rather than mixing it into a carrier oil and waiting for a few hours before washing the hair.

There is a chance that it's dutasteride kicking in but even if that's the case there's a bonus of getting hair that smells like lavender lol. I'm thinking of mixing in peppermint and rosemary oils to the next bottle and see if I get extra regrowth
