Should I stop taking finasteride & minoxidil before/after FUE hair transplant? (Photos)
woalesMar 4, 2017
My family is prone to male pattern baldness. My 30 yo brother now is at level 5-6 male baldness. I started to lose my hairline last year at 23 yo. Since then I have been taking finasteride 1mg & using regaine (minoxidil 5%) for about 9 months. I am now 24 and the M on my forehead is becoming more and more obvious so I am planning to get FUE hair transplant lowering my hairline after my Master exam in June. When should I stop using them? And should I still take finasteride after the surgery?
