Does anyone use liquid zinc and B6 instead? I never seemed to be able to dissolve zinc and b6 pills / capsules

Both my temples have receded at least 2cm since I got on minoxidil plus needling 7 months ago, while having some success rest of my head. Now I have the classic male pattern while before it has always been diffused with no temple recession. Will they ever come back? Anything I could try in the meantime?

have had overall density improvement including hairline but my left temple have receded a lot compared to pre minoxidil and needling :( Is it gonna get better?

It’s been 5 months for me now. I can say I’d actually be happy to go out without hair fibre the first time in a long time. I wonder if my density will improve further past the 6 month mark? My hair is still very thin compared to my baseline tho very very slowly improving. Some hair lost from...

Did any of you have small and dark hair all over your hairline before your hair loss started? My hairline is full of those and they have not really budged since the start of my hair loss 9 years ago, while the terminal hair behind that “line of defence” slowly went away. It’s crazy how...

Correction. 4 months I don’t get why you are so supportive of needling alone when we barely see anyone with results from it.

A lot of us have already tried needling alone with no results. I myself have tried for a year and a half. Bear in mind I’m probably also 8 months away from coming back to tell you “I tried minoxidil + needling for a year and it didn’t work” .. let’s see

Any idea why minoxidil could reduce your shed massively but not regrow hair (if no anti androgen was used as a combo)?

I wonder if better absorption is the culprit here. I had no problem with minoxidil when I thought what I had was only Telogen Effluvium and I used it as a stand-alone treatment for a year and a half with no skin problems. Now I feel my eyes are looking more hollow and my eyes are looking more tired. I’m going to...

Few years ago when I used it I had no problem. Now I’m restarting I think it’s affecting my skin. Tho I also started tretinoin for my under eye around the same time so not sure if it’s tret. The first time round I used minoxidil tho I always used it in the morning whereas now I use it at night. I...

It has already been discussed before that wounding alone without minoxidil does not help.

I have tried minoxidil previously without anything else. And it helped me reduce my shed to almost nothing within 3 months. It just never grew any hair for me. Then I dropped it and went on only anti-androgen. now I got back on it to see if it will do anything along with anti-androgen and needling...

anyone notice unpleasant side effects from minoxidil with needling vs without? ive been experiencing headaches everyday and my eyes start to look a bit tired :( I didn’t have these side effects before when I was on minoxidil without needling ...

How long are you guys planning trying minoxidil + needling? I’m almost at my 4th month minoxidil daily and needling weekly and I have to say I don’t see much at all. I think I’ve actually lost more since starting minoxidil. I dont know if I’ll get those hair back. I’m planning on trying it for one year but...

I actually didn’t know what it is. I googled it. I don’t think I will.
