Application of Minoxidil
Hello Doctor,
I have diffused hair thinning and hair loss. Doctor has recommended me to use Regaine 5% (topical) and Finrider (oral). The manual in Regaine 5% asks me to apply only 1ml each session on the bald spot and also 2 sessions a day. Now, my question is, as I have diffused thinning ( I am in the beginning stage of MPB-still have more hair volume), I am not being able to cover my whole scalp with 1 ml. Should I use more Regaine (say 2ml per session) or is there any other way to apply? Kindly help. Thanks in advance.

No ..1ml only..You are suffering from hormonal changes causing Androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please send photos of your head for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
