Minoxidil hair fall

2022-12-02 18:40:11
I have been using minoxidil for the 2nd time after I stopped using it for a while . Now that I am using it for 1 month again, I see my hairfall has increased which as per my last experience should only last for about 3 weeks. Although I do not see any reduction in my hairfall even after a month of using. I am skeptical if it is even working . And after using it for this long I dont even want to stop it just like that because it takes months for the lost hair to grow once minoxidil has been started. Any suggestions on this is appreciated.

Not like that... 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.
