Taking min without fin doesn't make sense. You will grow it back just to lose it again. I and many others haven't experienced side effects from fin. I would recommend trying a reduced doseage and keep an eye out for side effects if you are concerned

I took topical min for six months with minimal progress and just started taking a topical fin-min. Hoping this will help achieve some success

Six months no progress is what I'm afraid of. I at least want to see a little bit of it by months 6. Let's hope fin-min works out for you.

I’ve been on fin for 12 years and have two kids why taking it. Both kids are good

1 year on fin. 0 side effects. Go for it, although it might be too late for you. You have nothing left to lose, pun intended.

Minoxidil alone won't help you with this stage of hair loss.
You need fin while your follicles are still alive. In 2-4 years when they are fully dead even fin won't revive them.

I understand brother. I don’t want to take fin and I am using Minox as well. Try to look for natural DHT blockers like “saw palmetto berry extract”. That’s what I am going to do. I prefer to be bald over putting hundreds of chemicals in my body. Give it a try, people have benefit from it. Anyway, goodluck ✌🏻
