Hi there,
You haven't mention your gender and the strength of the minoxidil that you are using. If you are a female then kindly note that its not allowed to use more than 2% of minoxidil hair spray or lotion because of the growth of unwanted facial and body hair.
Your blood results are not that bad,and the medications you are taking are I think ok fit you but one thing I must clarify to you is that you have to wait for 6-12 months to see the results of the Minoxidil.
There are some helpful tips to to have a healthy hair growth.
Try to avoid :
Lots of fatty food
Lots of caffeine and soda
Sugars in your diet
Smoking and drinking alcohol
Harsh,perfumed hair care products
Try to :
Eat a healthy balanced diet
Drink lots of water,
Regular exercise
And vitamin and mineral supplements (which you are already on)
I hope you ll get the maximum results.
All the best.
