1mg of oral finasteride daily, or topical 0.25% solution applied to the scalp. Finasteride inhibits 5-alpha reductase type II, blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT — the androgen that miniaturizes follicles. In clinical trials, 90% of men who took finasteride stopped losing hair, and 65% experienced visible regrowth. The most effective non-surgical hair loss intervention available.

Hairline stabilized completely within 6 months. A year later it's visibly thicker than when I started.

Stack it with minoxidil for compounding results. My dermatologist calls it the gold standard combo.
