Excessive Hair Fall and Hair thinning

Question

Asked for Male, 27 Years

I'm facing hairfall problem since 9 years and I am still experiencing excessive Hair Fall. I am suffering from Androgenic alopecia (Hereditary). Since 6 years I'm using minoxidil but no use (10% from last 2 years). My scalp is extremely oily and dandruff , so I need to take head wash daily with Ketakonozol based shampoo. Based on doctors advise- I had started Finesteride tablet but stopped after 2 weeks as I was experiencing testicular pain. Now I'm applying Minoxidil (2times) and Vitamin tablet but no effect at all. Almost all hairs are fallen and more than 60% hairs are thinning- Now head is visible clearly. I could've gone for hair transplant but due to diffusive hair fall it would damage the existing hairs and results would be bad. I am confused now and depressed with these conditions & will leads to lose confidence on me. I need your advise.
