HI Savitha,
Thanks for writing to us.
Kindly stick to the prescription provided by your doctor.
Minoxidil 2 percent is used in female pattern baldness and 1 ml has to be applied twice in a day. Minoxidil should not be applied in oiled hair or wet hair. You do not need to wash your hair everytime prior to using minoxidil. Just apply it daily. Minoxidil tends to make hair little bit dry and scalp a bit greasy, so as per the needs wash your hair as and when required.
Hope that helped.
Take care
