Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
According to your complaints it seems you have started with male pattern baldness.
It is most effectively treated with minoxidil 5 percent solution.
The dose is 1 ml twice daily.
For better results you can take tablet finasteride 1mg once daily along with minoxidil.
These treatment needs to be continued for atleast 4-5 months for significant results and for 1 year for maximum benefits.
