I experienced a particularly traumatic and stressful event near the end of last year (late November 2014). About 3 months after the event, my hair began falling out drastically and all over. I experienced significant loss, such that large handfuls at a time would come out. My dermatologist stated that Minoxidil would help, and that I could discontinue use once my hair grew back since the hair loss is considered temporary/stress related. Is this correct?
