I can't take finasteride, and I don't know what to do about minoxidil, I wear concealer Derm/Fibres and know that I won't be washing them out every day, so would not be able to get into that regular performance. I'm at a bit of a loss at the mo, which is why I thought for 3 nights a week I'd wash it out and use the comb. Even 3 nights a week is a lot for me now, because washing hair makes a lot more fall out for me. Using Regenepure which I don't think is that great. Or Nano thickener one which does nothing, but doesn't claim to either.
EVEN if hair laser helps which is a HUGE if...you need some kind of medication.
Hair loss is super aggressive disease your body your DHT is attacking and killing your hair follicles.
The BEST way to treat it is Anti DHT like dutasteride or finasteride propecia And minoxidil
Anything else added can help but its not stopping hair loss.
Sorry to be honest.
Is there a reason not to try minxodil? I just started two months ago and i am so far having good results.
Also i think people are talking about Hanson And Wong (think the is name) they are hair transplant surgeons who will be selling a topical finasteride that has potentials and Not positive but seems its unlikely to go systemic.
You can also search around to see if anyone tried the topical spironolactone/estrodial they sell here on site.
Some of the guys also talk about something else i can't recall the name..Alforit F i think its called.
Search for 'whatever' thread on alternative treatments perhaps.
Basically if you cannot take something internally try to find something you can put topical that people have found efficient or somewhat helpful.
as far as shampoos
I have 1% Regenepur DR I LOVE
I have 2% prescription strength shampoo from pharmacy my DR writes script for me. I dont like that much but use it on occasion. My hair looks good after i just feel like it strips my hair dye/color--which you most likely dont have to worry about.
