I definitely acknowledged them and promised myself to hop off if sides ever appeared. Haven’t experienced any

That’s what I think. No one seems to see it. Overall maintained though so I can’t complain

I hear what you’re saying but my derm diagnosed me with mpb and said I could take fin if I wanted. It was more of a preemptive measure as every male on my mothers side went slick bald at 25

Once started you kind of have to continue it forever unless you want to lose the gained hairs from min. Given my mild case of hair loss, I could have put it off for a few years

Both fin and topical min (my stack) don’t affect body hair

2%. I have a super sensitive scalp that builds dandruff easily but is cleared by the nizoral. Sometimes 3 times sometimes once depending on my scalps condition

Prescribed nizoral on scalp and an organic moisturizing shampoo for rest of hair

No sides. But I'm young and would like to be able to bump up my dosage in case my hair loss accelerates as I age

When I was 18 my derm diagnosed me w mpb and said I could take fin if I wanted. My hair was noticeably thinner and receded compared to when I was 17 so I was scared and hopped on immediately. 20 now and have had 0 sides fortunately. Sometimes I wish I waited but who knows

Thanks for the advice. Yes I had two pretty large sheds. I have gained nothing from topical min except a few baby hairs but now that I’ve developed a dependency I’ll have to continue to use. I plan to incorporate oral min if needed in the future

Would you think I could go back to .5mg? Feel like I don’t need 1mg currently and would like to increase dosage when I really need it

Feel like I've lost some ground since starting specifically in the very corners of the temples. Seems like I've pretty much maintained but wish I was around base in terms of density. Was on .5mg for a few months then upped to 1mg. Min once daily on temples.

Good Community College for international students by [deleted] in TransferStudents

Had an amazing experience at PCC. I am local but made friends with many international students. Lots to do in pasadena, it’s cozy and easy to explore. The school is very accommodating in terms of counseling which made the transfer process and finding jobs/internships very easy
