How Can Severe Hair Loss When Morr F 5% Topical Solution Is Discontinued Be Treated?

Morr f5% solution for hair regrow has Finasteride (topical) (0.1% w/v), Minoxidil Topical (5% w/v). I have heard that if we stop using this solution, it starts hair fall with much higher rate. Do we have to use this solution for lifetime if once started using it?

Hi Dear,


Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe hair loss which can occur due to many reasons like dermatitis, improper hygiene, irritated oily skin, chronic inflammatory skin condition, and sensitivity to hair care products.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do olive oil massage on scalp. Apply anti-dandruff product containing Ketoconazole. Eat a healthy diet. Avoid exposure to sunlight. Maintain hygiene by using shampoo often using Salicylic acid shampoo. Consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may prescribe antifungal medicine and shampoo for your symptoms. You should cut back on styling products, hair sprays, and styling gels.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
