Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
You could combine 5% minoxidil along with amexidil. You get a combination of both, which you need to apply twice a day on dry scalp.There may be a transient hair fall in few patients which settles down in 2-4 weeks. You could also take oral supplements containing biotin, cysteine and methionine once a day for 2-3 months. Have a protein rich diet.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
