I'm on 1 mg finasteride for 7 month now. Zero side effects and my hair improved dramatically in this relatively short amount of time. I just regret not starting sooner. Don't listen to the trolls. Side effects are really rare. The depression from loosing your hair is pretty real though.

Oral minoxidil has been a game changer for me. I am actually on 3.25mg but started at 1.25mg 3 years ago. Yes, I have hair growing "everywhere" but that also includes thicker, longer eyelashes and eyebrows which is a huge positive for this over 50 lady. Any excess facial hair is easy to just shave off. It's just more peach fuzz and not dark. I was on DHT blockers in the beginning but for the last couple of years have only been on minoxidil and have seen great results.

This hit home today! Love your channel! :) Would you please do a segment on shampoo's & conditioner's that promote hair growth. The market is being saturated with companies claiming that their products are the best. This would be so helpful as a follow up to this segment.🥰

My dermatologist gave me prescriptions for low-dose oral Minoxodil and Finasteride. She was very surprised when she saw how quickly my hair has grown back. After three months I have a full head of hair. It’s just amazing.

I'm on 5mg of oral Minoxidil and after about 6 weeks is when I noticed my shedding start to drop. I used to cringe at having to wash my hair only to see tons of hair on my hands. Not anymore. I recall reading that 3mg to 5 mg was the recommended dose. A 90 day supply at Costco runs me around $14. Well worth it.

My young daughter - mid-twenties - started losing her hair in her late teens/early twenties. I have taken her to a wonderful dermatologist who did a scalp bx and confirmed androgenic alopecia. She even sent her to an endocrinologist just to be sure she wasn’t missing anything (and I took her to a gynecological endocrinologist as well to rule out PCOS). She takes oral minoxidil, finasteride, spironolactone. It has slowed the loss but has not helped with regrowth. It breaks my heart, she was so hopeful that the treatments might help, and every month that goes by without any growth is just so hard. It’s been over a year without much to show for it. I try to take her shopping for fun wigs, but the little girl with hair long enough to sit on has become a beautiful young woman who just wants to shave her head and be done with it.

Between this and Tretinoin, you guys are the best for suggesting places to get prescriptions from an online service!

I've been using it for 2 months after experiencing chronic TE and it's already cut my shedding to 1/2!! I use the 1.25 mg daily and I can attest to it!

[haydenharris]

I’m on 5 mg Finasteride for around 10 years which caused regrowth in the areas it was starting to disappear, it’s fine, but even so no bald patches. I’m happy and it has halted my significantly enlarged prostate. No side effects.

Trying both Rogaine applied and oral Minoxidil. Have been taking oral for about 2 months typically 1.25g/1x day, but sometimes 1.25g/2x.
Decided compound the oral with Rogaine being applied 2x/day (once in the morning, once in the evening before bed).
I have taken photos a couple years ago, then a year ago, then monthly most recently.
I can confirm, even after 2 months (for ME), there is SIGNIFICANT hair growth....which I'm very thankful for. As the Doctor said...I just would not look good bald (I have a baby face).
I look forward to the next 4 months and how it is going to look by Christmas!! Fingers Crossed.

p.s. - Oh, there has been no real side-effects noticed....for ME (again everyone and their body is difference). Again, thankful.

I've been using the serum of reactivate from litlllextra for the last month and completely moved away from my old serum for the past two months. It's working great. I simply use it once daily with the spray pump that comes with the serum. It's really simple to apply, not oily, and without any fragrance. The hair growth is up till now so good, and it's only 1 month only and I plan to keep to apply it.

Great informative video! Thank you. The preview screen is a little off-putting since some people experiencing hair loss are self conscious. I get the humor but I felt bad when forwarding it to someone who would benefit from your expertise.

[hsavinash]

Thank god! Dr. Maxfield has his hair still intact! My heart skipped a beat

[imgrateful]

It is working for me! My loss was not severe, but very noticeable and progressive over the years.

OM has stopped the miniaturization of my follicle and elongated my hair growth cycle. My hair is thicker, longer, stronger. ❤

Do I have a whole new head of hair❓No, but my hair is sooo much better.

My stylist and family notice it too. People even call my hair thick and I’ve never really had hair you would call thick.

Wish I would have started it a decade ago, but of course I didn’t know about it.

I’m a female.

I was on the lowest prescribed dose of oral minoxidil but it lowered my blood pressure where I was extremely tired and started to have chest discomfort. I’m working with my dermatologist to find out what works best for me.

Dr. Maxfield in the thumbnail is everything 😅😂

[alexdocampoderma]

Here in Spain oral Minoxidil have been used for some time, with great results and good tolerability 😊

[GartB]

I’m on 5mg Oral Minoxidil and have been since spring of 2022. I vouch for it 100%. I was a non-responder to topical Minoxidil and this was the next logical step. While it didn’t really regrow hair like I hoped (I’m very aggressive MPB you will probably have better results) it did stabilize and I haven’t lost hair (in combination with 1mg Fin)

[abhinavkumar]

The worst side effect of oral Minoxidil for me is that you would grow hairs all over your body not just scalp

[DRVenard]

Love the thumbnail 😂I legit couldn't tune in fast enough😆😂🤣Love seeing you two in the same place🥰
