I m usually using head and shoulders shampoo since 10 years. now for past one month I m also using nizral shampoo along with it. But still hair fall is not regressing. I ve heard about 100 hair is lost in normal individual. Could my condition be a regular process. now environmental conditions, I m stress free for past 1 yr but have been eating a lot of junk food. genetic history, my father has nice hair. current treatment, should I use oil with shampoo? In that case which oil. does minoxidil have a rebound phenomenon? does keraglo ad cause hair loss. Thanks to all doctors to doing such wonderful job and best of luck for them.

Hello dear,
Welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have read your query and understood your concern.
Hair loss is of different type. Most Commonly in males, androgenetic alopecia is found. It is also known as male pattern baldness.
For this, Minoxidil 5 percent lotion is advised along with some oral medications like keraglo which you already mentioned.
It takes around 3 months of continous use before any appreciable results are seen.
The factvis true that till the time you use Minoxidil , effect is maintained. But once you stop using it, it will revert back to original.
so I will advice you to adhere to treatment for good results and maintenance of the benefits.
regards.
