I visited a dermatologist a few years ago since I was going through male pattern baldness and they recommended finasteride and minoxidil, I am sort of hesitant of the side effects, can I try topical finasteride+minoxidil along with ketoconazole shampoo, can you recommend which medicines should I get ?
