Remedy for hair thinning and hair loss

Hello. Thank you for writing to us

I am dr.kakkar (dermatologist).
I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.
Yoy seem to have androgenetic alopecia which is characterised by hair thinning and hair loss mainly from the front, mid and vertex part of scalp as well as receding anterior hair line.
You may use minoxidil 5% solution (mintop forte), 1ml, twice daily, to be applied on clean, dry scalp. In addition you may take a tab. Finax 1mg once daily.
