Hi sir/madam, i'm a 25 years old male and I have the grade 3 male pattern baldness. Recently I have started using (minoxidil + finasteride) topical solution along with finasteride 1 mg tablet on daily basis. Can I use the topical solution twice a day? How long it takes to show the result?

Atleast 2-3 months. You have to use the solution daily.

If you are using 5% Minoxidil solution then yes you can (& you should) use 1ml solution twice a day but if you are using 10% solution then once a day is enough. It usually takes 3 to 6 months to see a visible difference.
