Am 22 now, am using minoxidle for the past 2 years, now I lost much of the hairs probably in nw3v. Even now am using REGAIN 5%, but my hairs still shedding everyday. Parallely occasionally am using neutriderm anti hairloss lotion and shampoo(weekly 2-3 times) am shedding around 100 hairs as soon as I apply minoxidle and comb my hairs. Should I stop using minoxidle? And am thinking to go for fue. Please guide me .am worrying a lot. Ps: both my father and grand father has bald head, nw5

Dear juliandivito,
Thank you for your clinical post. Minoxidil to try and enhance facial hair
growth is generally unsuccessful. By the
same token, unfortunately, Mioxidil use for facial hair growth will not result
in losing hair on the top of your head.

I suggest being on rogaine along with PRP/progesterone injections to limit further loss. You need a formal evaluation to determine the type of loss you have and what the best options are going forward. Best, Dr. Emer.
Speak to your dermatologist and ob-gyne about options in pregnancy. Minoxidil can not be used. Depending on my patient's history, I'll recommend low level laser to a proportion. Check with an expert.
