Minoxidil results peak at about 2 years. Unless you are on finasteride you have nothing to block DHT so the balding process will continue.

Nah doesn't true at all.

Minoxidil works different from person to person.
I known a few cases that minoxidil still working more than 5 years.

But unfortunately for OP minoxidil its not for him and needs finasteride.

Been using it for over 7 years. Still have a decent amount of hair on top, but it's gotten thinner for sure. I think it does a decent job in delaying it.

Try add some more stuff to your regimen. Keto schampoo, biotin, nutraviv (has azaleic acid that's supposed to be good), coconut and castor oil. I know it's a lot, but everything little thing makes a difference.

The same exact thing happen to me OP. I started minoxidil in 2015 and had great results and it even made me grow face beard, but at the start of 2017, it just stopped working. I mean it just stopped. I got a haircut but suddenly I noticed that I lost everything I had gained. My hairline is all fucked up. It's basically gone. Now my hair looks worse than ever. My crown now just have dying baby hairs, I'm basically bald. Now I'm one month on finasteride. Still no results and noticed a bad shedding. Hope for good results 3-4 months. I feel you bro.

The bad thing is I don’t know why happens shedding like that suddenly not gradually !

I go told by my transplant doctor to mix it up a little as in 2 weeks on 5% then 2 weeks on 15% so the body cant adjust. I don't know if that might help a little but worth a go.
