I have been suffering from hair loss since the past 2 years. Now it has become pretty visible, can it still be cured by using minoxidil 5%? I actually visited a doctor 2 years ago regarding the same problem, she told me to use minoxidil and some hair vitamins, it really did work but only for a month. When asked she told me it will start showing effects only after a few months. But after that I couldn't visit her again as the lockdown happened. Now, can I myself take minoxidil and the hair vitamin she suggested me 2 years ago, or shall I take another appointment with a doctor? No offence to any doctors but I heard there are only those two medicines for hair loss, is it worth visiting a doctor if they are also going to recommend me the same medicines?
