Why is my hair still very thin after five and half months of hair transplant?

October 29, 2014
Asked By:Karthik Suhas in Bangalore, IN

My hair after five and half months is still very thin and hair is not too close, hair gap is very much notable... I have stopped minoxidil coz my doc advised me not to use because of scaling... And transplanted hair between existing hair is still not noticeable.... Im worried because of seeing hair gap... Is this normal or is this because I stoped using minoxidil? Will hair growth really accelerate only after six months? Please suggest me...
