I have FPHL und use Toppik. I apply minoxidil when hair fibers (Toppik) is still on my head. Is this safe or can be dangerous and toxic for hair follicles when hair fibers particles can be absorbed with minoxidil??

You may or may not notice any difference in your hair in stopping the Spironolactone however, you may notice changes in your skin as you mention that you have had improvement in your skin. It may be helpful to seek other treatments for the hair issue while continuing the spironolactone...
Hello and thank you fo your question. Long term and high dose steroid use can cause weight gain but this is more common while taking steroids orally. If you are under a doctors supervision while taking steroid injections the side effects are usually minimal. Best wishes.Dr. T
Hello and thank you for your question. Steroid use for eyebrow growth is limited to a very specific few cases, yours is not one of them. I think an eyebrow transplant would be best for you. You can book an consultation with a hair loss professional for advice. Best wishes.Dr. T
