Hello!I'm a woman and I have hereditary androgenic alopecia. I was using Minoxidil for 2-3 years and it worked very well. However, It stopped working 6-7 months ago and I lost all the hair I had regrown. Can you please tell me how to make it work ago?Why did it stop working? I'm taking Biotin too but it doesn't really seem to work

Answer: Minoxidil stopped working I agree with Dr Donovan, that a good medical workup will help, and, if all is normal, then maybe try some topical like Nutrafol. Good luck.

Answer: Did minoxidil stop working? Minoxidil may or may not have stopped working. Rather your genetic hair loss likely overcame the ability of minoxidil to halt it. Of course there are other reasons too - including the possibility that you have another diagnosis now as well. Please see your dermatologist or hair physician. Only with a careful and detailed review of your medical information and examination of your scalp can an opinion be given as to what to do next.
