hello Dinesh, with minoxidil topical preparations it is usual to expect a bit of hair loss initially for the first two three months. thereafter the hair loss stabilizes as has happened in your case. there may not be an obvious increase in hair density but the purpose of applying minoxidil is to prevent further hair loss ; over time you may notice some increase in hair diameter and a fuller appearance but if you discontinue minoxidil any such changes will revert and hair loss will start again. so its practically a treatment for life. Hope that helps
