If I Stop Minoxidil, What Kind of Hair Loss Should I Expect?
I am 26 years old male and i’ve applied minoxidil once a day since age 21, but only in the two sides of my hairline where i had a problem, not in the rest of my hair. My father is totally bald. My treatment was taking place with some breaks, like 8-9 months treatment, 2 months stopping treatment. When i was stopping the treatment, the hair that was grown from minoxidil were falling out, and then after re-starting the treatment they were starting to grow again.
i have no sign of baldness in my crown, where i’ve never applied minoxidil. i want to ask you that if i stop using it at all, what kind of hairloss should i expect?
If you’re going to keep starting and stopping the medication, I don’t see the point in using it. If you stop using the medication completely, I’d expect any benefits that the minoxidil gave you will soon disappear. I don’t know what your hair loss pattern is or how much the medication was helping, so I have no way of knowing what kind of hair loss you’ll see. But if minoxidil regrew hair, that hair will fall out when you stop using it. Why are you playing Russian Roulette with your hair?
hi, i am 24 year old and i started using minoxidil (5%) 2 months back.. got pretty good result.. then left it for a month and sadly my hair started falling again.. i have started it again.. is it going to help in growing again ? and what other medicines should be used with minoxidil ?
