Hairloss since 3 4 years
Hi, I have been facing hairloss since past 3-4 years now, and consulted many dermats. Some say the usual minoxidil and finastride, some say use prp etc.
Considering my routine and with the the need to attend office everyday, I wanted to know if there are any alternate remedies.
What I am okay with using finastride twice a week and minoxidil once a day. Or would only minoxidil be sufficient Would this be fine? Considering that Im not comfortable using it twice due to the commitments and complexity it brings. Im okay with slow progress.
Please advice

Yes minoxidil once a day is also fine if you regularly apply it. Some blood work up is essential to rule out other underlying causes of hair loss. Androgenic alopecia is a long term disease, only consistency will help you best manage it
