After stopping Minoxidil, are two months enough for all hair grown from the drug to fall down?

KeK10
I have been using Minoxidil for two years (last year only once a day) At first, it worked perfectly fine but it stopped working. (I'm not sure if it stopped working or that its still working but I am losing other hair) I decided to completely stop Minoxidil and do a Hair transplant in two months, hoping that all hair grown for the drug falls within these two months. Are two months enough for the hair transplant doctor to see my worst case and accordingly do the operation?
