Minoxidil and hairfall

2023-04-13 14:21:49
I have been using minoxidil from the past 6 months and completed 6 cycles of PRP too.  However whenever I apply/rubbing minoxidil in my scalp, hairs are sticking/falling into my fingers. Is it normal ? Hairs are growing but falling too. How to get rid of this?

Normal.. however treatment depends on the grade..You are suffering from hormonal changes causing Androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please  send photos of your head, by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.

Male pattern baldness should ideally not be treated with minoxidil alone Topical Finasteride in addition is bare minimum Topical Tretinoin is a good add on if you can tolerate it As long as less than 100 hair fall we are good to go
