Understanding its limits helps avoid disappointment.
Can slow hair loss won’t cure baldness
Can regrow miniaturized hairs not dead follicles.
Works best on crown and mid scalp less on hairline
Improves hair density not original thickness for everyone
Can cause initial shedding often a good sign
Won’t change your hairline shape dramatically
Doesn’t stop progression alone in aggressive MPB
Side effects are possible especially oral form
Doesn’t replace finasteride for DHT control
Can improve beard growth off-label
Cosmetic gains vary expect moderation not miracles
