  4. Minoxidil topical solution 5% Hairfall?

Minoxidil topical solution 5%
I started taking minoxidil topical solution 5% about 8 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. So a detailed reply would really be appreciated. Thank you so much :)
