I am 25 year old male, I am suffering from severe hair loss with my doctor's advice I tried more f 5% which helped me to stop my hair fall upto some extend however it caused me importance. So, I want to know what should I do to stop and regrow my hairs as I know minoxidil can regrow hairs but it also causes impotence. Or it's the finasteride that causes impotence. Please help!

Minoxidil just dilates your blood vessel there and further promotes hair growth. Finasteride is the one which causes impotence. So you can use 5% minoxidil without any fear.
