I’ve (31F) been on 0.625mg Oral Minox since beginning of January and on 25mg Spironolactone since March. I have not experienced side effects.
Diagnosed with AGA via a telehealth provider, no biopsy though. Been experiencing diffuse hair loss for 10 years and finally decided I needed to get prescription-grade help.
The shedding has significantly slowed which is encouraging but I’m not seeing much growth and it’s now beginning of May.
Photos are from January 21 and April 30 and labeled.
I know 0.625mg OM is the lowest dose but I’m pretty nervous about side effects, especially edema and heart palpitations. But I’m also fearful that this will only get worse.
I have an in-person appointment with a derm at the end of May, and maybe going to ask for a biopsy.
What do I do?
