I'm 26 years old and I am concerned about my hairline. It has been receding in the past few years. A couple of weeks ago I started taking Finasteride 1mg per day + 5% liquid minoxidil to my hairline twice a day + Nizoral shampoo every three days (I read it has some DHT blocking capabilities??) + 3000mcg of biotin twice a day + L'oreal sulfate-free hair thickening shampoo and conditioner every three days. Hopefully all this stuff I'm using is going to at least halt the receding hairline. One can only hope. I'll post my updates when necessary.


Where do I fall in the Norwood scale? Thanks.


Any recommendations? Should I stick with this regime or amp up the dosage on minoxidil (from 5% to ??), Nizoral (from 1% to 2%), Finasteride (1mg to 1.25mg)?


I'm using around 1ml of Minoxidil twice a day around my hairline/temple area. Should I use it elsewhere on my head? Should I use more than 1ml per application?

I noticed some shedding today. This is my eight day in the regime. Isn't that too soon to start shedding? Maybe it's just my imagination.

I'm posting right now because I am a little concerned. I just went to the bathroom to pee and after finishing peeing and squeezing the head, I noticed a watery, white-ish liquid coming out of my dick. Side effect to finasteride possibly?
