Asked By:shk86 in Oslo

Hi I am 31. No history of balding in family. I went to doctor to solve my tired looking skin and thining hair. I got minocyclin and minoxidil. After 4 weeks I am dealing with sever hair shedding. I GOT panicked and visited another doctor, which prescribed stoping minocyclin (a possible side effect) and replacing minoxidil with cystiphane biorga foam! I am dealing with a lot of panic, never experienced such hair loss :(( will the hair grow back? Should I follow the second doctor's prescription?
