Asked By:khalilalaban in ME

It's been 1 week since my hair transplant. I've been taking Xpecia since the 2nd day post-op, a multi-vitamin that seems to recommended by most turkish doctors. You can find attached the ingredients. My question is, and just to put my mind at ease : Will it do any harm at this stage? I ask because the doctor asked me to stop minoxidil at least 2 weeks after my HT and not start it again until 3 weeks post-op. So I figured I should've waited as well before taking any multi-vitamins.

Rae Lynne Kinler, MD says:

As far as I am aware, shock loss doesn't occur in the donor area. If you have low density prior to a procedure, your donor area will appear thinner after a procedure, especially if one area was overharvested. You should not be losing hair in the donor area. As far as the finasteride is...
