Question my age is 23.i am loosing my hair gradually from 2 years.i have used 5%menoxidil 8 month ago.but my hair loss is still remaining.i want my hair regrowth.is there have any other medicine which can prevent my hair loss problem?i also know that,can i use propecia?
Answer Dear Arif
Minoxidil is only occasionally useful in restoring hair growth and unfortunately there is no other drug preparation which is effective at the moment. (Propecia is minoxidil). The only alternatives are hair transplants, wigs etc. Please remember though that hairloss is not the catastrophe that you think it is and it is nothing to be ashamed off. Most women are attracted to men not because of the amount of hair on their head.
