Matt Tahsini, MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. Yes you can use Minoxidil pretty much anywhere. That being said, you might want to be seen by a hair loss specialist to see if there is something else going on or if Minoxidil is the right thing for you. I wish you the best.

Minoxidil works on the skin and it can grow hair on any skin part, even the sides of your head.  It doesn't always work great as it varies in each person using it

You can use Minoxidil anywhere on your body that you want to promote blood flow. If you are thinning on the sides you can try Minoxidil. I would recommend setting up an appointment in person with a hair specialist to check if there is something else going on as well.
