Suggest Treatment For Thinning Of Hair And Hair Loss
Question: Hi,
Two years back I noticed thinning and receding hair line. I also noticed that hair on the front of my scalp had lost its density and I my scalp was visible. I was diagnosed with MPB by a doctor. He however did not prescribe me minoxidil. I did my own research and started using MINTOP FORTE 5% lotion, saw palmetto, biotin and multivitamins since the past 4 months. I have seen improvement in the density and notice some regrowth. I however came across a product called MINTOP PRO PROCAPIL HAIR THERAPY. I want to ask you if I can use mintop pro along with mintop forte 5%. Thank you

Dear Dr Asmeet,
Thank you for your answer.
I have two short questions for you. Do you recommend Mintop Pro procapil therapy? Have you seen positive results of this product on your patients? Also do you suggest any other medicines that I should add to my regime (except finasteride)?

Brief Answer:
Use mintop pro, oral medicines are sufficient
Detailed Answer:
I have used mintop pro in some patients.
The results are good if combined with minoxidil therapy.
Alone as a mono therapy the efficacy is inferior to minoxidil.
You can go for it along with mintop forte lotion.
You are already taking biotin, multivitamins and saw palmetto.
No need to add further oral medication.
It has been seen that finasteride along with minoxidil has excellent results in male pattern baldness but if you want to avoid it then go for minoxidil.
