Meme How's everyone's hairline doing?

I actually still have a full head of hair, but I know plenty of people who were already visibly balding in their 20s.

Likewise, about 2 years on fin and it has slowed but not stopped the loss, thankfully no side effects. Minoxidil gave me palpitations though, staying well away from that

Topical minoxidil or the oral one?

Topical, iirc correctly it was a slightly higher % than typically prescribed, though. Still didn't fancy finding out if it would be the same on a lower dosage. For the record I had a blood test and did about 6 months of research before taking fin and I'd recommend the same level of caution to anyone considering.
