I have leave minioxdil and have completed 6 month today but still I am facing a lot of hair fall due to minioxdil ... It is definately due to minioxdil because I never have such severe hair fall pre minioxdil I want minioxdil action to stop in my body and gain my hairs back to pre minioxdil stage as minioxdil has damaged my hairs and not any good I will rather go to homeopathy for my hairs problems but first please tell me how to stop hairfall induced by stopping minioxdil ...( In my case I have not got any results from minioxdil till 5 month and due to its use too much hair fall I used it in 3% for 4 month and 5% for 1 month off even after stopping it hair fall is not coming to an end) I want my hairs to be back as it was on the first day of using minioxdil

Minoxidil usage initially causes increased hair loss for 1-2 months, the hairfall issue gradually come down and one will be able to see new growth after 3-4 months. If minoxidil is stopped suddenly it can also cause rebound hair loss that’s why it should be used and tapered on advice of the doctor. Causes of hair loss like hormonal changes ,vitamin deficiencies need to be evaluated and corrected if there are any along with other therapies for good results.
