Been having hair fall since I was 22 which stopped when I was pregnant For the last 3 years I was on minoxidil 2% and it worked very well but now the hair fall has resumed with clumps of hair coming out. I have now been prescribed minoxidil5% and follihaur tablets. The hair loss stopped in 12 days since I started the therapy. But is it safe for me to be on minoxidil 5% and will it continue to work for me in the long run?
