I have used topical minoxidil off and on for years. It has made a difference when I applied it regularly.

But recently I have tried another method that has much more noticeable results in just a few months. That is combining minoxidil and Propecia (finasteride) together and apply it topically. I no longer have thinning hair, I have thickening hair. I am seeing my hair coming in much lower on my forehead where I haven't seen it for decades.

There are companies that sell it such as HIMS. But I prefer to make my own by crushing the finasteride pills and adding it to the minoxidil. I believe it is safer and more effective than taking it orally. There are Youtube videos that demonstrate how to do it.

There will be new(and expensive) methods that will grow your hair back faster but they say once you are completely bald in an area it will not help.
