Dear sir / madam, i'm a 28 years old male. I have pattern hair loss and have been using minoxidil + finasteride combination 5% solution and also taking finasteride 1 mg orally since 2019. And now I want to stop taking finasteride orally. Is this will cause severe hair loss again? What should I do now?
