Concern about using minoxdil
I have hair receding issue stage 2..i have consulted an online doctor through an online platform called man matters.. The doctor pescribed me minoxdil solution.. And i ordered their man matter's minoxidil (in the picture attached to it) but i think the medicine have little dosage it doesnt works as a normal minoxidil. It's also 5% but it's been 1.1/2 months but there's no little change at all.. And im using derma roller along it too..
I have used normal minoxidil 5% solution from dr. Reddys in the past for my beard growth..( 2nd picture attached to it)it worked properly and showed good results..
Can i use the normal minoxidil dr. Reddys instead of this minoxidil that the man matters gave to me?

Minoxidil usually takes 4-6 weeks to decrease hairfall. You should use mintop lotion. It has good results.
