Honest review of hair loss treatment that showed results through concurrent medication

Hello, the reason I started hair loss treatment was because my hair thinning became noticeably worse and the crown of my scalp started to become visible. At first, I thought I was just losing a lot of hair, but gradually the top and front of my head became sparse, and my scalp was exposed, which made me more anxious. Eventually, I consulted a specialist and was diagnosed with early-stage hereditary hair loss. The doctor prescribed oral medication (finasteride) and topical treatment (minoxidil), and as I continued to take them regularly, I saw visible results, which made me very satisfied.

In the early stages of treatment, I used medication daily without fail and monitored my progress. According to what I heard at the hospital, stress and lack of sleep significantly affect hair loss treatment, so I also tried to improve my lifestyle habits. I maintained a regular sleep schedule, started light exercise and meditation to reduce stress. Additionally, for scalp health, I used a gentle shampoo and massaged my scalp softly when washing my hair.

After a couple of months, the amount of hair loss noticeably decreased, and I felt that my existing hair became thicker. Especially, I felt hopeful as the crown area gradually filled in. Although the effects of hair loss treatment vary from person to person, starting at an early stage allowed me to feel a definite change. The doctor warned that if I stop the hair loss medication, my hair could return to its original state, so I am still taking the medication consistently and managing it.

I realized that hair loss treatment is not just about using medication, but a process of transforming one's overall lifestyle to be healthier. For those hesitant to seek treatment, I want to advise them to find a specialist as soon as possible, get an accurate diagnosis, and establish a systematic treatment plan. Consistency is the only effective way to treat hair loss, slow its progression, and regain confidence. The best time to start hair loss treatment is when you think it's already too late.
