I'm trying to figure out if procapil is really effective for dealing with hair thinning and a receding hairline due to androgenic alopecia. I've been thinking about using it instead of minoxidil because I've read that minoxidil can have some side effects. Can you let me know which option might be safer or more effective?

Procapil is a hair growth peptide that has shown promising results in treating androgenic alopecia, hair thinning, and receding hairline. It works by targeting the main causes of hair loss and promoting hair growth. It can be a good alternative to minoxidil solution, which is known to have some side effects such as scalp irritation and unwanted hair growth in other areas of the body.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with these small, white, hard bumps on my scalp for about a year and a half now.

I've been using Deriva BPO gel for about a week now, but I haven't noticed any improvements in my acne. In fact, I'm seeing more whiteheads appearing on my acne every day. Is this how the gel is supposed to work, or will it actually help clear up my acne?
