Yeah, it’s definitely YMMV. Also I read that minoxidil is only good for hair loss in the back, not for receding hairline. I was using it for almost a decade before I switched to a buzz cut, then shaved it all off. Unfortunately my hair loss was primarily in the front, so I’m not sure minoxidil ever did much.
(Fellow trans person btw, though I haven’t tried to use it before testosterone started kicking my hairline the way my genetics were pointing 😅️)
You can also take DHT blockers to prevent hair loss, and minoxidil to turn vellus hair into terminal hair
I did minoxidil for a bit, but honestly it wasn’t worth the effort and money in my opinion.
Ah fair, my friend used it to grow facial hair before he started T, and it seemed to work well for him, but ig results may vary :)
