Senior Member LaserCaps Posted September 14, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 14, 2022 First thing, congratulations! This is an important first step. It's refreshing to see someone considering a medical regimen as soon as they realize they're losing hair, and not waiting until they do a procedure to get started. Propecia, Rogaine, PRP and Laser are the modalities we refer to when dealing with this condition. They work in different ways and there's synergy when combined. It takes a full year to ascertain what they'll accomplish. Get on them and stay on them. Take photos in the interim and reassess in 1 year. You can then decide if the time, effort and expense are worth continuing. 1 Patient Consultant for Dr. Arocha at Arocha Hair Restoration.

Senior Member Curious25 Posted September 14, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 14, 2022 If you are chasing the most efficacious medication available - then you will be looking at a combination of daily 0.5mg oral dutasteride and 5mg oral minoxidil. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
