Female pattern hairloss
I have Been on minoxidil 5% for the past 3 months and taking finasteride 1mg from past one month.
Minoxidil caused a huge shed for me and my hair looked worse. New hair however I think have started coming in? (Attached photo)
I feel like due to my sleep cycle and eating habits my pcod has returned. I have a history of it. Can this effect the final results of Finasteride.
Will the results get better if I get my sleep schedule and eating back on order now? Is this new growth?
