Sudden hairfall, While on Minoxidil
I'm facing massive hairfall problem ( male pattern baldness ). I'm using minoxidil 5% as consulted by my dermatologist from past 1.5 years. But suddenly in these 2 months I started facing massive hairfall even while on minoxidil. I can say I lost 35-40% of hairs in this period. Not sure what to do, I'm 22 & it's a bit fearsome. Thank-you for help.
