Anyone had good results with hair growth products/methods? (mander.xyz)

I'm starting to notice my hair is thinning a bit. Nothing drastic. Just natural aging. No, nothing unusual came up when I got my blood tests, my doctor didn't find anything wrong with me.

I'm just asking to see if any of you had good luck with any products. I know grafting is an option, and I also know that there are hair clinics which are very expensive etc. but I'm after an "at home" method.

Is there a product you would recommend?

I'm not a doctor either obviously, but apparently hairs first start growing of a thinner diameter, shorter length, and eventually they die. So hair products ideally would help keep these follicles healthy so that they keep producing thicker hairs and not die prematurely. You are right though, if I want to increase the number of hairs I'd have to implant, but perhaps there are methods to improve what I still have.
