Minoxidil tablets for hair growth ?

2022-06-26 06:44:59
Can minoxidil tablets induce hair growth in scalp? I'm finding less improvement from topical solution which I have been using for years. Do doctors prescribe the tabs?

No . Minoxidil causes hypertrichosis which can be generalised. So apart from scalp you may get hair on other body parts also
