Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
Tugain solution is Minoxidil 5 % solution and if you had consulted a dermatologist earlier, then you might be suffering from male pattern baldness. Minoxidil is the treatment of choice for male pattern baldness and it works in the majority of cases. Only thing about it is the fact that the effect is seen very slowly and you need a lot of patience. It takes minimum of 3 months to notice any sort of effect and maximum results at the end of 1 year. If you take tablet finasteride along with minoxidil the results will be much better. Kindly consult a dermatologist again to restart medicines and please remember that treatment compliance and patience is the key.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
