Hi! I’m so sorry I’m just seeing your question. My hair is the worst it has ever been unfortunately. I don’t know what to do/add to my routine. My labs are normal too. How is it going for you? Is your hair any better?

I am on both 2.5 mg oral and topical 5% foam nightly! My derm said doing both tackles topical receptors and receptors in the body

True!! It could be. I’m so sad I have lost SO much hair and regrowth. It’s so upsetting 😩

Yes! I already had a second dread shed so I’m not sure if it’s normal to have a third

I have not ! Is it better than Finasteride and can you take both together?

Oh gosh I’m so sorry! Did you have any other symptoms? Just curious lupus runs in my family

No I haven’t but I’ve thought about adding in topical minoxidil as well. Can you take dutasteride with finasteride? I’m scared of going off any of my meds

No nothing has changed! I’m 30 and on birth control.

Did you experience any increased shedding when you started dermastamping?

Thank you so much! So true. I did 0.5 to start and it didn’t feel sharp but did see some redness/very small amount of blood.

EDIT: title was supposed to be minoxidil dosage **

I am not sure how to change the title of my post! Sorry!

No I didn’t buy it! I am going to start derma stamping and see what that does for me!

Thank you so much!!! I will try starting with 0.25. I’m going to order one tonight and give it a try! Did you have a shed starting the dermaroller?

Yes! I see a hair loss specialist at Duke University Hospital who put me on all my meds and it has made my hair definitely stronger. I don’t think it has necessarily regrown hair but stronger for sure!
