Doctor prescribed me coverit minoxidil 5%. But when I searched online and I found that coverit is not for female. So I am in a big dilemma whether to use it or not. Please help me out. Thank you.

It can only be used in Female pattern hair loss but in that case it can just be used 1 ml daily. Studies are there in females too.

Not like that. Depends on the grade. 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, by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
