Hi, I am a 16 years old boy whose density of hair in the crown region had severely decreased. As per suggestion of dermatologist I use mx5 solution twice a day. But using it for 2 weeks I am experiencing a severe increase in hair shedding. What should be done?

Yes you will have as I initially all your older hais will shed off for new hair growth It is one of the side effects of minoxidil Nothing to worry. The effect you will see is after 3 months.
