Hi,
You seem to have androgenetic alopecia. You are using minoxidil 10% solution. And you are feeling better. You continue to apply the same solution for long time till you have good result. Only the irritation is the side effect some time patient develops. You have no problem at present, so you may continue..ok along with this you take finesteride 1 mg daily in morning and biotin tab 10 mg daily at night. For dandruff you continue to do shampoo containing ketoconazole. I feel , you might get good result. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
