Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic.

Tugain is minoxidil, which is a non-specific hair growth promoter. 5% strength is what is normally recommended in males, 1ml, twice daily, at the scalp skin.

It is one of the most effective remedy for male pattern androgenetic alopecia, in which there is genetically programmed hair loss and thinning from the crown and vertex part of the scalp, along with recession of the frontotemporal hair line giving the appearance of a broad forehead. If therapy is begun sufficiently early, there is an overall good prognosis.

I would suggest that you see a dermatologist for a confirmatory diagnosis.

Along with minoxidil, your dermatologist might suggest that you also take an oral antiandrogen, finasteride 1mg once daily.
