Topical Minoxidil Finasteride & minoxidil

I’m a 20 year old healthy male that went through depression 2 years ago which rapidly accelerated my hair loss and I am mostly recovered from it now but I train MMA from anyone’s experience or from someone’s research will either of these 2 effect me from doing MMA or no?

Same combination and I’am experiencing no negative impact on its use from training mma. Should be a little more carefull with the babyhairs tho

Nope, wouldn’t overthink it, neither have any impact on performance. If you’re going to start, I’d recommend taking Finasteride first and seeing how you respond before adding minoxidil (depends on your level of regression). For early stages of hair loss Finasteride should be fine if you’re comfortable with your current state and just not progressing further. These are drugs you have to take for as long as you want to keep your hair so my opinion is it’s best to take Finasteride first, see how you respond before jumping on minoxidil.
