MX 10 is a high concentration minoxidil (10%) and is considered effective even though it is not FDA approved. With the 10%, however, one also gets more side effects, such as dizziness, lower BP, arrhythmias. As for the helmet, it shouldn't be a problem unless it is rubbing your scalp. If you are losing hair where the helmet meets the scalp, then it is a problem. Otherwise, the statistics would suggest you have androgenetic alopecia and the Minoxidil treatment is reasonable. After 3-4 months, you will know if the MX10 is working or not. Sometimes, stopping the minoxidil can lead to hair shedding.
wearing a helmet daily will not cause hair loss unless it is rubbing on a particular area and pulling out the hairs
I recommend following up with your OB/GYN. It is usually recommended to stop using Minoxidil once you begin trying to conceive. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
In My Opinion, any inflammation can increase hair loss. However, Seb Dermatitis should not lead to a Telogen Effluvium. You need to see a hair expert for evaluation.PRPHAIRMD.COM
