I’ve had noticeable hair thinning for about 4 years now. My density is pretty low, especially at the crown and mid-scalp — I can see my scalp clearly, especially when wet.

I’ve been using:

- Topical minoxidil (10%)

- Oral minoxidil (2.5 mg)

- Multivitamins

for the past 8–9 months. It helped a bit (less hair fall + slight regrowth), but my hair still looks very thin and weak. before that i was on and off on tropical min and Multivitamins.

I asked my doctor about finasteride, but he didn’t prescribe it.

So just wanted to ask:

- Should I consider starting fin?

- Can it actually improve density or just slow hair loss?

Would appreciate any advice or experiences.
