Is Minoxidil Serum Advisable For Hair Growth?

I am a hypothyriod patient since 5 years, have hair fall since then. Recently i consulted a dermatologist, she said my hair fall is linked to thyriod problem. She has prescribed Anaboom serum for hair fall along with multi vitamins to increase my hemoglobin. She said just with serum and medicines my hair will not grow back. She is suggesting to start Monixidil serum starting next month. Please suggest, shall I start Monixidil or is there any other alternative for hair regrowth ?

Hi..

Thyroid imbalances is one of the common cause for hairloss..
So the first thing that you need to do is to get your thyroid levels under control with proper medication and exercise.
It will help in improving your condition to a good extent..

And yes, Minoxidil is a good choice for severe hairloss and you can start with applying 2% Minoxidil lotion over the scalp..
Also apply Onion juice over the scalp twice a week..

Continue taking multivitamins and along with it drink plenty of water and take nutritious meals like more of green leafy vegetables, fruits and nuts..
Avoid stress as it can also increase hairfall..

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
