minute<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>They are not equivalent medications: they act differently and can be used alone or within a combination plan.<\/li>\n<li>Oral finasteride 1 mg is authorised for certain phases of androgenetic alopecia in men; Topical minoxidil has its own presentations and indications.<\/li>\n<li>Both require consistency for months and their benefits diminish when they are abandoned.<\/li>\n<li>The choice depends on the diagnosis, sex, age, history, preferences and tolerance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"s1\">\n<h2>Two treatments with different objectives<\/h2>\n<p>Finasteride reduces the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase. Its main objective is to stop the miniaturization of the follicle in male androgenetic alopecia. Minoxidil is commonly applied to the scalp and promotes growth in some patients, although its mechanism is not completely understood.<\/p>\n<p>None treats all causes of falls. A loss in plaques, with inflammation, scarring, recent illness or rapid weight loss requires evaluating another diagnosis before choosing.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"s2\">\n<h2>Practical comparison<\/h2>\n<div class=\"table-wrap\">\n<table>\n<caption>Finasteride vs minoxidil<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Appearance<\/th>\n<th>Oral finasteride 1 mg<\/th>\n<th>Topical minoxidil<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Typical use<\/td>\n<td>Initial phases of androgenetic alopecia in certain men.<\/td>\n<td>Alopecia according to the presentation and Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) provided.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Application<\/td>\n<td>Daily tablet under prescription.<\/td>\n<td>Regular application on dry scalp.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>First balance<\/td>\n<td>Usually after 3\u20136 months.<\/td>\n<td>It may require 4 months or more.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Safety considerations<\/td>\n<td>Sexual function, mood, pregnancy and manipulation.<\/td>\n<td>Irritation, unwanted hair growth, dizziness or rare cardiovascular symptoms.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"s3\">\n<h2>Can they be combined?<\/h2>\n<p>In some dermatological plans they are combined because they act through different routes. That doesn&#8217;t mean that every person needs both or that the combination is automatically superior. Tolerance, cost, daily routine and the ability to maintain it matter as much as the photographic response.<\/p>\n<p>The dose should not be increased or switched from one route to another based only on internet results. The formulation, concentration and authorised population change between products.<\/p>\n<div class=\"warning\">\n<h3>The right question<\/h3>\n<p>It is not \u201cwhich is stronger?\u201d, but \u201cwhat diagnosis do I have, what option can I maintain, and what personal risks need to be reviewed?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"s4\">\n<h2>How to decide and measure<\/h2>\n<p>Before prescribing, the pattern, evolution, family history, medication, mental health, possibility of pregnancy and scalp symptoms are reviewed. Comparable photographs at the beginning and at 3, 6 and 12 months help avoid conclusions due to changes in lighting or hairstyle.<\/p>\n<p>If the loss progresses despite a correctly maintained regimen, it is advisable to review diagnosis, adherence and associated causes before adding treatments.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"related\">\n<h2>Continue on the right route<\/h2>\n<p>Related information and access to medical assessment.
