Using Minoxidil When Pregnant

is minoxidil safe in pregnancy?

Any medication that you take on the skin will go through the skin and into the body. If the baby gets exposed to this drug by absorption through the skin, there’d be at least one report of babies with more hair than normal. Unfortunately, good studies are not available to answer this question. This may be an issue of benefits vs risks, so I would suggest that you ask your OB doctor and see if that causes him/her concern.
