Suggest Treatment For Regaining Hair

Hi Docs, I am 26 year old male. I have been facing issue of hair fall since age of 7-6 years. I ignored it for say 4 years . Now I have been using minoxidil on a dermatologist prescription from last year it do have stopped hair fall to a level. But still my hair density has gone quite low. Also the hair line on the front head has tossed too much. Currently I am using Tugain gel 5% What should I do to regain my hair without a transplant ? Please help.

Hi,

It seems that you may be having most probably androgenetic alopecia. It is a condition of hair loss influenced genetically. It is also influenced by hormone... Testosterone. You may continue treatment as you take under observation of dermatologist. Still, I would like to give you few suggestions...

- take tab finesteride 1 mg daily morning
- take tab biotin 10 mg daily at night
- continue minoxidil 10 % on scalp twice a day
- shampoo containing ketoconazole may be used to cleanse the scalp

Have patience for the good result.

Thanks.
