  4. Male pattern baldness. Using minoxidil?

Male pattern baldness

2016-07-05 16:36:28
Ive started having 1-2 stages of alopecia. Before trying mesotherapy or prp, Im thibking I should go for Minoxidil. But Ive read reviews that people lose hair again once they stop minoxidil. Will I end up worse if I stop using minoxidil? Or will my condition return to where it was before using minoxidil? I mean Im just 21, how will I apply minoxidil for 10-15 more years daily..

Why are you thinking on behalf of a dermatologist? Go to one please. Treatment for baldness is not so simple. There are products other than Minoxidil. And all of them can because side effects. It is difficult to discuss things on such forums. Visit a dermatologist near you and you shall benefit.
