Hair volume minoxidil topical solution5%

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

I started taking minoxidil topical solution 5% about 11-12 days ago and I'm still experiencing hairfall (probably because of the thin hair shedding so that the thick hair can replace them). But for how long will I experience this kind of hairfall? I don't want my hair volume to lessen. Will my hair volume increase? So a detailed reply would really be appreciated. Thank you so much :)
