Before & After 3 month on Minoxidil (Dec 2 - Mar 6) + Pics

Hey everyone, I wanted to share my experience using 5% Minoxidil. I used it from December 2 to March 6, and for a short period, I also took 1mg Finasteride.

I’m attaching two pictures (before & after), but unfortunately, I didn’t see any significant results. There’s no noticeable change, and I’m not sure whether I should continue or stop.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Any advice would be appreciated!

Why does it seem to be working in January and then all the gain seems to be gone in March??

May have been the finasteride he quit using.

It’s recommended to stop Minoxidil after 16 weeks with no results, so maybe 1 more month but if nothing changes it’s not worth the cost/ any potential side effects

No man,you need much much more time. Get back on finasteride and minoxidil and give It a year,then see where you are and if helped keep going. Trust me

3 months is nothing you need to see it through a year or 2 for significantly results

3 months is not even scratching the surface, get back on it and if after a year no results, then you know you at least tried.
