Hi, you are having andrgenetic alopecia. Take finasteride tab.1 mg daily in morning, biotin containing tab 10 mg daily at night, apply minoxidil 10 percent solution twice aday, wash the scalp with ketconazole shampoo daily at bath. You will get good response after 6 months. You have to maintain treatment for about 3 to 6 years. If you do not satisfied , you may go for hair transplant after 3 years. Be positive, do not worry. You will be benefitted.. Ok

Dermatologist Dr. Kalpana Pathak's  Response
Hi Yogesh,

You seem to suffering from a pattern of hair fall known as male pattern baldness or androgenetic alopecia. Only two drugs are US FDA approved for the same-oral finesteride and minoxidil solution. Your doctor has prescribed both. The desirable response usually takes 4 to 6 months of time. I would advise you to follow your doctor's prescription and remain in his follow up.

Hope that helps! Take care
