I am a 19 year old girl facing excessive hair loss. My vitamin D levels are extremely low (4.7) so I have started medication. Further, my dermatologist prescribed minoxidil 5% for 3 months along with nutrient supplement. I read on the internet that stopping minoxidil, after use, may cause excessive shedding. I am really apprehensive and scared about using it.

Stress and physiological reactions associated with anxiety can and often do induce several types of hair loss, male pattern baldness being the most common one.
İf you say you used Minoxidin and it did not work on your hair, than you can try taking finasteride 1mg. this kind of medication usually help the hair grow.
Fenasteride can be used for long years, however it is better to do this with breaks. if you use it for a year than i would recommend to take a break for 2 months. other than that if you are planning on using it for a long time, get your hormonal checks done regularly
