hello everyone!
Im a 23 y/o male who spent all July on this forum reading threads. Basically around May I noticed my temples getting weak. I started minoxidil around July due to the fact that I had to use concealers to hide my weak temples. Within the first week the heavy shedding started, I felt so bad, I didnt know what was happening. I thought I was going completely bald :( Anxiety attacks, depression and even the thought of death were part of my days. I considered quitting minoxidil but thanks to some guys on this forum decided to keep my journey even when I didnt really want to.
last month on the 9th I finally got a prescription for Finsteride and Nizoral
I stopped taking finasteride after the 1st week for 2 days because I thought I was having sides but resumed and started taking the pill at nights instead and havent really seen/felt any side ever since
these are my results of my first 2 months on minoxidil and my first month on finasteride and Nizoral.
I'll be monthly updating my results

My crown is really weak, I hope I can grow some hair there

Seen, that BIG 3 works very well for you.
Continue and don't stop taking a finasteride. Good luck.

Maybe more minoxidil on the vertex, minoxidil works very good for the vertex and usually the vertex is regrowing faster in comparing a frontal areas after using minoxidil. But for someone who's balding more on the top of head perhaps the situation can be vice versa.
Thanks bro. I make sure to pour a little bit more minoxidil on my vertex

I guess I'm a good responder. The first 2 weeks were hell lots of hair fall. My shedding decreased considerably around week 7 on minoxidil

Hey guys.... so am I shedding again??? Ive been losing lots of hair again for the past week. When I started minoxidil I started shedding almost immediately but it stopped 2 weeks after I started finasteride. I'm really worried plz help.
I'm losing hair on the top of my hair. Not my temples
