    I have used it for a long time more than 3 years. It did not regrow hair significantly but at least it slowed down. Therefore, I do not have any regrets because I know for sure without it I would have lost more hair. Since I still have hair in my forward area I am keeping my hair short. Minoxidil does not work for receding hairlines, it only works for thinning. Is Finasteride mandatory after HT? This is the first time I am hearing it. Finasteride severely affects libido isn't it?
    I saw comments on youtube saying some of them using Finasteride to keep the non planted hairs since whole hairs are not replaced with planted hairs. Yeah. It has a huge impact on your sexual life. be aware of the side effects. BTW You may have used minoxidil twice a day, at what time did you take shower when you were in Minoxidil treatment?

    That's the thing I missed using twice every day on some days, which may have affected the performance. Anyway, I would have a shower every morning and apply minoxidil after the shower in the morning and the next dose at night. I can sleep with Minoxidil applied so it is not a big issue with me. Regarding the HT aftermath, I think you can use minoxidil instead of Finasteride, but ideally, both need to be used for better results

    Hows your fitness ? Ability to concentrate quickly and eye sight ? Can you jog for atleast 30 minutes without getting exhausted ?

    I think eventually everyone will get to the point where Minoxidil is not working anymore. You have to rely on another meds afterwards. You either can take a finasteride or increase the dose of Minoxidil. I'm not certainly sure about the facts. just giving my opinions.

    Could you suggest some places where Aryuweda is really working. I'd really like to see some alternatives

    My fitness is good. I jog regularly and weight lift. The only thing is I feel dizzy and sleepy sometimes and get angry quite easily. I don't know whether these are side effects or not.

    In my case though, Ayurveda did not work. That is how I started because in those days minoxidil was not popular. I went to three Ayurveda doctors who prescribed different meds. Did the treatment for a year but no results. Those are my early years; I wished I used minoxidil earlier. And those oils are really stinky and sticky. However, it may have worked for other people. In our case, there's a strong case of genetic baldness in both my parents sides. So there is nothing much I can do anyways other than slowing down the process.

    Hair Loss is a symptom of poor digestive system. Your bowels are not absorbing the food you eat at optimum rate. Efficiency is slow and slower.

    I don't believe that your fitness is good. you are lacking the stamina and enduarence of human with heathy hair of your type.

    Dizzyness, sleepiness , and anger are again symptoms of poor digestive system.

    There are aromatic oils which can be applied while in office , but initially its not possible because tiny tiny blood vessels that feed your hair roots needs to kept alive.

    Without a proper diet control, Traditional
    Or Ayurvedic Medicine won't work because this problem is directly relates to food digestion.

    Male pattern baldness is a genetic trait. Caused by the conversion of male testosterone into DHT in people with mutated genes. The other variables such as food as you said may have an effect but the main cause is genetic. This is proven in science and reproduced many times; in fact, now included in textbooks. There are other baldnesses that may be caused by diseases. There may be an effect of bad food and stress and all but not the main culprit. Is your digestive claim supported by any scientific sources or is it purely Ayurvedic?

    That could be so called "scientific" point of view, but its not effective. So why keep faith on science which is not effective ?

    රැවුල් වලට දාලා වැඩක් නැත. ජෙනටිකලි හෙල්ප් එකක් නැතිනම් සෙල්ලම් දැම්මාට වැඩක් නැ බං. සියල්ල තාවකාලිකයි. බොරුවට හම වේලෙන එක විතරයි වෙන්නේ.
    මිනොක්සිඩිල් ගාපුවා ම එන කොණ්ඩෙ තාවකාලික නැද්ද? ගාලා නැවැත්තුව ම ඊළග ෂෙඩින් සයිකල් එකේ දී හැලෙනවා නේ ද?
    ඒ කියන්නෙ ඕක ජීවිත කාලෙ ම කරන්න එපැයි.

    Yeah. I'm getting the sense that Ayurveda won't work. I have a friend who used some kind of oil and he told me he hadn't seen much difference. Thanks for sharing your ayurveda experience with us. I know many of us find it very useful before getting their situation worse <3

    the real question is "If my hair got replaced with minoxidil hair, after stopping the treatment, is my hair losing more than i've experienced before? " can someone answer that?

    Minoxidil won't replace your existing hair. It will help you to keep your existing hair and also in some cases you will see new hair growth in already lost hair. However, if you stop it all those new hair will be gone and also existing hair will loose at a higher rate (according to real cases)
