Suggest Suitable Treatment For Thinning Crown

Hi, I am a 34 year old male and have a thinning crown. I m thinking of using Regaine extra strength foam containing a 5% concentration of minoxidil however I have a 3 year old child and my wife is currently pregnant. Will using minoxidil cause any issues with my wife s pregnancy and if my 3 year old child were to touch my hair? Thanks

Hi
Yes minoxidil is an effective medicine for thinning in the crown region. You can go ahead with it.
It can be safely used even if your wife is pregnant and it is safe even if your child touches your hair.
