Hey everyone,

I wanted to get some opinions on my current situation before I make any changes.

I’m around Norwood 2–3 (temples + some crown visibility under light). Hair is still fairly dense overall, but I can see thinning especially when hair is wet or parted.

I recently got blood work done and found multiple deficiencies:

Ferritin: 13

Vitamin B12: 120

Vitamin D3: 14

Transferrin saturation: ~15%

So clearly I had pretty significant deficiencies.

Current treatment:

Finasteride 1 mg daily

Topical minoxidil

Iron supplements

B12 injections

Vitamin D3 supplementation

I’ve just started correcting these deficiencies.

Now I’m wondering:

Should I add oral minoxidil, or is that overkill at this stage?
