Answered by Dr. Dr. Muhammad Sareer Khalil (2 hours later)

Brief Answer:
Minoxidil Topical

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

"Androgenic Alopecia" or "male pattern baldness" is best treated non surgically through topical application of Minoxidil lotion started with 2% lotion to be used twice daily. Treatment is continued for at least 6 months and abrupt discontinuation during this phase should be avoided. Vitamin E and biotin supplements should also be added along with other essential nutrients as deemed appropriate by your doctor.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
