I just started to do 1x 1ml a day after the shower in the evening. I have diffuse thinning especially crown and I think minoxidil + regenepure will greatly help. Should I do 2mg 1x day instead? I was thinking about maybe switching to foam in the morning sometime down the road

I would seriously look at something to address the androgens (finasteride). minoxidil will do next to nothing to address the root cause of male pattern baldness.

I know a lot of people say this but there have been many long term diffuse thinners like me who have been able to maintain their hair for 5 or 10 years on minoxidil alone. Plus I tried minoxidil for 3 months in 2013 and it worked very well like my hair was much stronger and the shedding stopped
Why would I risk finasteride and potential side effects if I can be on minoxidil and stick with it as long as it works?

I've been on these boards for 12 years if not more. I've seen my fair share of stories. I've read minoxidil studies (when used alone) and they go against what you're claiming. I'm just trying to give u sound scientific advice. If u don't wanna follow that's ur prerogative. Good luck with ur treatment.

It's been a week now and I'm starting to shed badly in the shower. Sounds like it's working

Just in the beginning as it triggers the weak hair removal process and stimulates the growth of new ones.
