Dermatologist, Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney's Response

Hello,

I have gone through your query and you seem to be having androgenetic alopecia.

I would recommend you to apply minoxidil 5 per cent lotion on the affected areas of the scalp twice daily and take hair supplements like tablet follihair A once daily.

You need to continue these medicines for at 4-5 months to see significant results.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
