Initially I was having hair fall (genetic one). One of my friend who took some hair treatment suggested me to use Minoxidol 5%. I have been using it from 1 month. From then, I started to loose more hair. I can see my scalp due to hair loss. At this frequency I may become bald with in 4-5 months. Also I started to develop acne and more wrinkles on my forehead. PleaSe suggest wether should I stop using Minoxidol? And any tips to stop my hair fall.

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. Please contact me with photos using online consult option for proper examination and treatment. You have not been councelled properly. Please consult me for this. Initially there may be little increase in hairloss.
