Just ordered Finasteride/Minoxadil topical spray

I’ve had thin hair since like middle school it’s always been very fine.

I figured now that I’m pharmacology Maxxing might as well use it.

I can stimulate the androgen receptors that otherwise would be stimulated via DHT by way of 5 alpha reductase. (Fin inhibits this process)
Via exogenous testosterone (self administered TRT (( a generous dose tehee))

Anyone use this?

RIP penis. My hairline started receding hard the last year too but I'll just shave it when it gets bad enough. Not sacrificing my prized possession for vanity.

I got a major hair transplant 6 months ago that’s coming along great but I will never touch that poison finasteride even if it means needing another transplant 5-10 years down the road. And I’m on TRT as well.

Won’t take rogaine again because I took it for a year and it aged my face.

All I do is use a laser cap (LLLT) every other day and 2-4 PRP sessions a year. Those two things have zero side effects.

Yea it went back to normal after several months of discontinuing use.

That was years ago when I took it for 365 days twice a day and never missed a dose.

Tried it again after my hair transplant just to help the hairs grow along better but the same thing happened with facial wrinkles under my eyes so I stopped again.

Yea I take low dose cialis (3mg) for hair growth. It’s a vasodilator which helps circulate blood to the follicles.

I used minoxidil to grow a beard lmao srs ... It was magic. Blows my mind that minox can be used to grow beards, but it cant regrow hair on your scalp.

min+fin+sildenafil stackmaxxxing

I dont even need the viagra stack tho just have it on deck if im kinda drunk.. I pop 1 fin every 2-3 days prob 200 baby hairs came back since I started using a year ago next to no sides

also bought a dermastamp last week going to use that in the rotation I think results will be similar/better than PRP since its more frequent looking forward to restoring my 18yo hairline

I think I would look good bald but rather make balding a choice

Pretty much this. Even if the chances are relatively small, that’s a high risk, medium(at best) reward. Imho the best thing to do if balding is to just get jacked. It really makes all the difference. When the reaper comes asking for my hair or my dink I’ll gladly hand over my hair if it means keeping my dink.

You typically want to use finasteride before or right as you start thinning (hair in hand but head looks normal). Hopefully it's not too late for you to play recovery. I hear RU58841 is really good for recovery, but like Minoxidil if you stop using it, good bye gains. As well as microneedling.

If you plan on getting a hair transplant, you can just use the finasteride to retain as much as possible. Me personally, if I were to get a hair transplant I'd just use fin and fin only.

But in reality, I would just shave it all off brah. I've gone bald at 16, 22, and 27 for chits and giggles and it doesn't change who you are.
