I am suffering from androgenic alopecia. Now I am using Tugain 5 % and finasteride 1mg. I am getting some brown and thin hair on the front area.I am taking these medicines for last 1 year. But these hair is not growing further. What should i do now to grow these hair
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of androgenic alopecia. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take Minoxidil and Finasteride on alternative days as these two are best supplements to treat this condition. You should use indian gooseberry powder with water once a day and use almond oil. Massage scalp once in a weak. Start taking supplements containing Vitamin A, Omega-3 and Vitamin E. You should consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order skin patch test , blood test and physical examination. Doctor may prescribe you drugs like finpecia at least for 3-4 months or antifungal treatment along with minoxidil spray.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
