    How long will it take to recover from Nizoral induced shedding

    Does topical estradiol cause an initial shedding?

    in addition to this, if estradiol will be successfull in thickening/growing my thinning hair, would I be able to drop minoxidil and keep using the estradiol gel or i would lose the minoxidil dependent hair? (sorry for the bump).

    Shedding only thin/miniaturized hair

    If I am shedding only finer/miniaturized hair compared to my "healty" ones, does it mean that the medications are doing their job or is my male pattern baldness progressing? I have a theory that if it takes a hair X years to miniaturized it is going to take some hair growth cycle to get back healthyer, that is...
