I have used Propecia and minoxidil for 4 months. Now it have stopped to work. Any reasons? (photos)

Question

I have been using minoxidil (twice a day) and Propecia (1,25 mg) every day for 4 months. Before I started to use it, I cleary shaved my hair. After 3 months I got extremely nice and thick hair. I did'nt have any hair loss. But now my hair have got longer and have startet to get hair loss again. I dont know the reasons, because the cure have worked extremely well for 4 months now. I have used shampo with silicone. So maybe that Can be a problem for the minoxidil to work?

This needs an in-person evaluation. It can take up to 6 months for Propecia and Minoxidil to work. I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

They’re to many details which can effect the results, some is about ;
the patient himself ( General health situation, diseas &hellip;) And the clinic.

So you have to get in contact with your clinic for the best answer.

I usually tell patients that it takes 4 to 6 months for Propecia and Miinoxidil to start working. Give it at least a year before you assess the results and response. Dr. Robert Jones

The effectiveness of Propecia and Minoxidil may not continue if the cause of your hair loss increases its voracity.
