Well Ive been deliberating for 2 maybe 3 years now (my minoxidil is long since expired), however I think I'll start minoxidil once daily starting tonight. Ive had relative decent success with it in the past (15 years ago), but that was alone or in conjunction with finasteride.
I felt it was of no use without an anti dht. Since zix (15 years), my loss has been insanely slow, but my temples are higher than I wish to tolerate. Im in my 40's and have my life in order. Point is, do I really need it? No. I guess that's why I've been holding off , not to mention the hassle of committing to adding an extra step in my day forevermore, the greasiness and this whole collagen side effect that some report.
I just wish I could improve the density and maybe regain half an inch on my hair line. Anyhow, hope this works out.
