Hi,

You are having androgenetic alopecia and psoriasis,as you said.

Psoriasis is almost controlled.

But, still you should continue medicines for it, as it may relapse.

You take methtraxate 15 mg in a week in devided doses.

You take finasteride 1 mg daily for long time for AGA.

other medicines , you may continue.

change the strenght of minoxidil to 10%.

Relaxe, and do not worry. you will improve .

I hope you got my answer..

Thanks.
