Suggest Treatment For Hair Loss

I have been experiencing troubling changes in my hair since on Minnivelle; Hair has become extremely brittle, and frizzy and it never was before, Always was very oily. And my hair is falling out. I have also gained weight, and I am naturally slender. I can t think of any reason other than the minnivelle patch and have read online that others have experienced hair loss on it. Thank you

Hi,

Minoxidil (Rogaine): Rogaine is available over the counter as a liquid or foam. Apply it to the scalp twice a day to grow hair and prevent hair loss. Finasteride (Propecia, Proscar): This is a pill that you take daily.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Monish De, Oncologist
