Stopping usage of Minodoxil

2021-10-14 14:31:48
I currently use Minodoxil 5pc + Finastride solution for my hair growth. I have achieved the level needed but unable to stop the usage as whenever it is not used for 3-4 days i get itching on head as well hair fall starts. Even if try to stop the usage by applying it on only alternate days, it doesn't work. The hair fall starts back. Is itching normal ? Please guide.
