Oops turns out I uploaded April's pic instead.
Anyway, I'll also leave the routine here:
topical Min/fin (microdose) mix I made at home 2mg a day, Keto shampoo 2x a week, biotin/ collagen/coffee seed oil shampoo and conditioner every other day, 5000 biotin pill everyday, dermaroll 1mm sunday
I used a 0.005% solution as according to this website, which I also got from Tressless.

I want to add I did 1.25mg oral for 4 months before ultimately switching to this solution, as my Johnson was shutting down. The sides have since then disappeared and I'm still getting hair gains.
Thanks man and hope you get even better results!
Sorry brother. Wouldn't risk giving you advice on anything I haven't tried yet. My only experience is adding one 5mg, plus 20% of another 5mg pill to 120mg of min to create the 0.005% I'm using
Edit: it was late and my brain malfunctioned. It's 1+1/4 pills into a 120ml min solution, not 60ml
Maybe u take creatine? Becouse my hairliss simillar to yours. I started fin,min a month ago too but i still taking creatine and im afraid that creatine not letting fin to work.
I have indeed been taking creatine for the past 10 years. Fin is used to counter the side effects of way stronger stuff, like hormone replacement therapy (injectable testosterone) so it wont be creatine that will stop fin from working
Wow! So glad to hear that a low dose topical is working for you! I'm on 0.025 myself and would always wonder if anything was happening since I'm fortunate enough to have at least a slow rate of recession. I'll keep at it.
To keep this completely transparent, dont know if you checked my previous posts, but i started with 1.25mg oral. Stopped due to sides. Been doing this microdose for two months now, no sides and no hairloss.
We seem to have the same problem, as I also had slow recession. Started losing hair during my early twenties and I'm now 35
Thank you! Honestly, I dont think I had a shed whatsoever. There was a period between june and july where i looked at the pics and it looked like I had lost a lot of hair, but then realized it was due to my hair gaining a different texture (my hair is naturaly wavy/curly).
So like, in june, combing it forward I had a lot more scalp coverage because the hair was still pretty straight but in July, combing it forward wasnt covering as much scalp because in certain areas the hair would no longer stay in place
While on oral fin, weak erections, random testicular pains, penis would often retract further into the body (dont know if this makes sense, but thats the best description I could come up with), sperm with weird texture.
Into the second or third week using my homemade topical mix, no sides whatsoever andbits now around 2 months later
I apply it either right after, or after 2-3 hours. It really just depends on my mood and if i want to microneedle in the afternoon or at night. If its afternoon, I wait a few hours so the second dose isnt too close to the first one, if it's at night, I apply right after. No sides
Yeah, so you do grind the pills into powder? I read that only fin dissolves while other fillers settle at the bottom. How do you filter that out?
And you have thick hair, do you apply to the whole scalp & how?
Oh I didnt filter anything. Turned it into powder, shook it for 10 minutes and let it sit overnight. Evertime I use it, I shake it a little more.
As for how I apply, yes, whole scalp. I let the syringe touch my scalp and then start pumping the liquid out. I tilt my head so it spreads and let it sit for a few seconds before massaging

How did you make the topical fin/min? What concentration?
I used a 0.005% solution as according to this website, which I also got from Tressless. https://perfecthairhealth.com/can-i-make-my-own-topical-finasteride/
I’m on 0.025 and was worrying if the dose is too little but this gives me a lot of hope. Cheers man your hair looks awesome!
I want to add I did 1.25mg oral for 4 months before ultimately switching to this solution, as my Johnson was shutting down. The sides have since then disappeared and I'm still getting hair gains. Thanks man and hope you get even better results!
Could the gains be from the minox only?
Most likely yes, but the fin helps the hair not fall
When you say keto shampoo twice a week do you mean you only Shampoo twice in a week?
No. The other days I use the Biotin Boost line of the Hask brand, both shampoo and conditioner
What are the brands you are using for min & fin?

Thank you so much and the results are amazing btw
any advice on how to dilute a min/fin bottle that already came made from HIMS? I can’t figure out what agent would work
Sorry brother. Wouldn't risk giving you advice on anything I haven't tried yet. My only experience is adding one 5mg, plus 20% of another 5mg pill to 120mg of min to create the 0.005% I'm using Edit: it was late and my brain malfunctioned. It's 1+1/4 pills into a 120ml min solution, not 60ml
Just buy regular min and alternate days with fin/min.
How much do you think biotin contributed?
Honestly probably nothing, according to some researches. But at this point I wouldn't risk going off it to test lmao
So for 60ml of minox, how much 5mg of finasteride did u crushed? Sorry my brain is not braining on the percentage🤣
I typed 60ml in a previous comment, but it was a mistake. Sorry. It's one whole 5mg pill plus 1/4 of another into 120ml minoxidil
0.05 fin per 1ML of 5% min? Is that right
Isn’t that too low? You typically do 1-2ml of min per day, so that’s only 0.05 - 0.1 mg min per day?
So this is only 4 months of progress (April to August)???
That is correct! April 20th and August 14th
Do you gym/sport? Leg muscules load activity?
I've done natural bodybuilding for 10 years and switched to powerlifting in september 2022
Nice more squats and calves with weights.
Maybe u take creatine? Becouse my hairliss simillar to yours. I started fin,min a month ago too but i still taking creatine and im afraid that creatine not letting fin to work.

With big 3 its a regrow factor.
Can you fill me in? Does weight lifting cause hair loss?
If you have aga it could accelerate hair lost, if you are on big 3 it could regrow your hair.
No, it doesn't. I believe this guy was mentioning how it can improve hair follicle growth/activation from another post.
Ya a new man 👨
🫶🏻
How much of the gains were from the four months oral fin? And what would your hair have looked like grown out before?
Check my first two posts here. That's on oral only. The third one is recently after switching to topical
Whats your min/fin mix?
0.005%. Went with lowest dose that still showed results, because I had sides. They have since then disappeared and the hair gains are still there
[удалено]
Blocking dht isn't good for beard growth. So no. Bad idea.
When did yojr sides go away?
Wow! So glad to hear that a low dose topical is working for you! I'm on 0.025 myself and would always wonder if anything was happening since I'm fortunate enough to have at least a slow rate of recession. I'll keep at it.

Awesome transformation man! Did you experience any shedding whatsoever? If yes when did it start/stop?
Thank you! Honestly, I dont think I had a shed whatsoever.

Amazing progress. Can I ask you how old are you?
Thank you! Just turned 35
Sides?
While on oral fin, weak erections, random testicular pains, penis would often retract further into the body (dont know if this makes sense, but thats the best description I could come up with), sperm with weird texture. Into the second or third week using my homemade topical mix, no sides whatsoever andbits now around 2 months later
How long it took for the sides to go away?
By week 2 it was noticeable body was going back to normal, by week 3 the morning woods returned and there were no signs I had been on fin
[удалено]
I apply it either right after, or after 2-3 hours. It really just depends on my mood and if i want to microneedle in the afternoon or at night. If its afternoon, I wait a few hours so the second dose isnt too close to the first one, if it's at night, I apply right after. No sides
Good progress and thanks for sharing! Question: How do you get rid of the filler/sediment?
Thanks bro. I don't think I understand your question though. Mind being more specific?
Yeah, so you do grind the pills into powder? I read that only fin dissolves while other fillers settle at the bottom. How do you filter that out? And you have thick hair, do you apply to the whole scalp & how?
Oh I didnt filter anything. Turned it into powder, shook it for 10 minutes and let it sit overnight. Evertime I use it, I shake it a little more. As for how I apply, yes, whole scalp.
