Hi,
I would recommend you to apply minoxidil 5 per cent lotion on the affected areas and take antiandrogen like tablet finasteride.
Oral tablets are prescription drugs and should be taken under the supervision of the doctor.
These medicines need to be continued for 4-5 months to see significant results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
