My hairs were falling 2.5 years back when i was 22 years old.. i start using minoxidil after using it for 6 months my hairs stop falling. But i start gaining weight so i stop it. I havent use it from last two years and my hairs are falling continuously. Now bald spots have also started to appear on my scalp. So what should i do? Should i start using minoxidil or not??

Answer: Minoxidil Weight gain from minoxidil would be quite unusual. I'm sure you could safely resume it. However, if you are actually developing isolated bald spots I would see a dermatologist to assess other hair loss conditions.

Answer: Minoxidil Thank you for your question. Minoxidil is an effective treatment in helping regrow hair, but it's effectiveness also depends on the type of hair loss you have. Unfortunately, once minoxidil is stopped, hair loss may resume. Restarting minoxidil can help regrow your hair, but I highly recommend you consult with a board certified physician specializing in hair restoration to discuss your hair loss, assess for any underlying conditions that can cause hair loss, and treatment options that best suit you. Take care and good luck.
