General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hair 4 U contains minoxidil which is recommended for treatment of hair fall (male pattern baldness). It promotes hair growth but effect is seen after 4 - 6 months of use. It common side effects are burning or irritation of the eye, itching, redness or irritation at the treated area and unwanted hair growth elsewhere on the body.
Advice
1.     Hair 4 U 5% lotion – apply locally in scalp1 mL twice daily for 4 months
2.     Tablet PROHAIR 1 mg daily per oral for 4 months
3.     Capsule Revital – 1 capsule per oral daily for 3 months
4.     High protein and vitamin rich diet such as eggs, meat, vegetables, cheese etc
5.     Do not take much tension as anxiety/depression aggravates hair loss
6.     Hair transplantation/hair wig is also an option for you
Thanks
