I'm 6 months post op 3000 grafts. I have growth but it's very thin with little growth on the top left and right. Hairline is okay. Looking through my post op pictures it looks like they filled in those areas really well, but as of now it looks like a lot has not sprouted yet. Can hairs still sprout after 6 months or do I just have to hope it gets thicker? I have also been using minoxidil for the past 4 months. Thanks.

Looks alright. It's pretty common for every transplanted hair to fall out following the procedure, so don't worry about too many falling out- as long as it's not your natural hair it's fine. You should be finishing removal of all the scabs within the next few days, after that you're good to go!
Depending on the doctor they usually would recommend you resume Minoxidil anywhere from 2-4 weeks after your transplant. You should ask your doctor when they think is best, since only they know all the specifics about your particular case.
