Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain hairfall can occur due to a number of causes like Androgenic Aloepecia cused due to sensitivity of hair follicles to androgenic hormones and genetics while other causes comes under Telogen Efluvium caused by
fungal infection,
nutritional deficiency, stress, long standing illness, side effects of medicines..
As far as using
Minoxidil is concerned, it is a commonly used medication that helps in improving blood flow over the scalp and promotes hairgrowth and limits hairfall..
It does not have a side effect f loosing sexual desire, rather other medication like Finesteride has that too is temporary till you take medicine..
You should consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and he can advise you investigations like
hormonal assy, blood tests, trichogram, dermoscopy to rule out the exact cause of the problem and treat you accordingly..
You can be advised to apply 5% Minoxidil lotion over the scalp..
You can be advised to take Biotin and
multivitamin supplements..
You can also be advised to take Finesteride orally if there is androgenic aloepesia as it suppresses
androgens..
You should
massage the scalp with warm coconut oil..
You should take a nutritious diet and drink plenty of water..
You can also discuss about platelet rich plasma and Mesotherapy..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.
