Hi Doctor .. Greetings from Egypt , I have 2 questions for you 1- My doctor in Egypt (the most famous in the country) has adviced me to take only avodart 0.5 twice a week forever and he said this is much more better than finastride 1mg everyday more effective and more safe ,, Do you agree with that ? 2- I want to use minoxidil only once per day (before the bed) .. will i loss my gains ? once a day will be effective ? Thank you doctor for your efforts

Try derma rollo 2 times a week 1.5mm aswell as minoxidil once before you go to bed you may get improved thickness!

So much I have learned to watch and listen your videos, Dr., I am more relaxed as I only apply minoxidil once a day and it is not serious if I use a little more than 1 ml (not exaggeratedly). Can give me your opinion if liposomal minoxidil 2% is more effective than industrialized minoxidil 5%? Thank you very very much, Dr

Great coverage on this topic Dr. Bhatti. In my case, I have a vast area of baldness and I did a hair transplant 8 months ago. I haven't take Minoxidil or Finasteride so far, however, I would like to improve the thickness of my scalp, so I would like to know if is still recommended to take Minoxidil and go through the shedding phase again on the donated area.

You would have had a better result if you had taken it! It will not affect much at this stage if the hair are from your permanent donor zone. You may, however, take it to safeguard your thinning native hair, if that is also your problem.

Hair transplantation - Minoxidil Question: I have Norwood 2. I have been taking Finasteride for a year, but unfortunately, I have not seen much improvement. Initially, I only took 1mg three times a week, but now I take 1.25mg daily. It hasn't gotten much worse, but it hasn't gotten any better either. I have a hair transplant appointment in October. Im thinking of going on Minoxidil and my doctor said I could try it out. However, I read on the internet that Minoxidil should be stopped for about 7 days before and after the hair transplant. My question is, should I start using Minoxidil now and stop using it for two weeks in 5 months because of the hair transplant? Or should I wait until after my hair transplant to start using Minoxidil? On the one hand, I want to stop my hair loss and promote hair growth as soon as possible, but on the other hand, I am afraid that the back-and-forth use of Minoxidil could do more harm than good. Or is stopping Minoxidil for 2 weeks not a big deal? Thank you in advance. To clarify, my concern is that if I start using Minoxidil now to achieve fuller hair, the doctor may use weakened hair from my donor area that has been treated with Minoxidil for the hair transplant, resulting in potential hair loss at the front in 3-6 years. Therefore, I wonder if would be more prudent to wait until after the hair transplant to ensure that the implanted hair is strong and stable before beginning Minoxidil use. How long should I wait after the hair transplant before using Minoxidil?

I've seen one of the side effects being sudden weight gain? If it's true, what's the scientific explanation for this process?

Hello sir which is best to use after Hair Transplant Minoxidil or Rendensyl???

Great video Doc! This must be *the* most balanced and well explained video on this topic in the entire YT universe! Have a couple of questions of my own, if you don't mind answering... 1. Had my HT surgery 3 weeks back. Am on Finastride 1 mg (every alternate day) for last 2 weeks. Is this dosage adequate to ensure optimum growth of newly planted grafts? Or should i start taking it every day? I had 'brain fog' sort of reaction with it some time before HT, hence being a little cautious this time (or if you can suggest some sort of mechanism with which i can prevent horrible brain fog, that would be just wonderful) 2. Minoxidil - Starting with 5% Tugain foam from tomorrow. I hope its sufficient. I know you recommend 2% to start with, but i have taken 5% earlier and my skin was fine with it, so hope starting with 5% now shouldn't be problem. A yes or no from your end will be helpful Q.1. above is super critical, would really love to hear your expert opinion / advice on the same. Thanks

@hairtransplantinindia

Thanks for watching. In reply: Qs 1- I would not recommend alternate days but then your treating doctor knows your condition better and must have seen a lower total testosterone level to suggest this reduced dosage.

I have very mild baldness my hair grows out ok but it is very fine and when u wash it it becomes brittle and breaks/sheds. Would minoxidil help counteract this problem? Thankyou

I'm a very good responder to minoxidil, when I used it for 5 months it covered up my entire baldspot (norwood 3.5). However I believed it was causing me heart palpitations at night and some very unusual chest pain on the left side of my chest where my ribcage starts in a very specific area. I was only using about half a capful of foam 1x per day (which i believe is the recommended amount). When I stopped, the symptoms went away after about 2 weeks, within 9 months all the hair I regained was gone. I am trying it again now at even a lower dose now by diluting 6% liquid to 3% using propylene glycol and only applying to my crown and not my whole head, roughly .5 ML of liquid. This time I am not getting the palpitations but the chest pain started up again about a month into treatment and I am thinking I need to stop again right in the middle of the shedding. Have you heard about this before? I am an athletic and healthy 39 year old male with no heart condition per an echocardiogram after the first incident.

FUT and FUE are just harvesting techniques. In fact the laxity at the back of the head becomes less since the strip that is redundant skin fold is removed. This will stretch your crown and expand it further. Do not believe what anyone tells you. Do more research before going in for a hair transplant.

For other areas you have to decide if you will be using it after 6 months or else thinning hairs so maintained in non transplanted hairs will return to original state. Grafts are secure at one week. However we continue care till 2 weeks. For your care, please follow your doctor's advice.

Dear Doctor, alongside finasteride, can I do PRP post hair transplant once a month for 2-3 sessions instead of taking minoxidil?

PRP is of no use.

Thank you very much Dr for the great video on Minoxidil. My question, will minoxidil keep my existing hair for as long as I use it .. or I will keep balding even if I am on minoxidil after a period of time? If yes, how many years, roughly will it maintain my existing hair? Thank you again doctor!!

Minoxidil is not a DHT blocker. The benefit you stated, is the work of a DHT blocker. Minoxidil will not interfere with the baldness timeline- it will only keep hair healthy as long as your genetics wish them to remain on your scalp.

@@hairtransplantinindia thank you for your kind response Doctor. I am actually getting into grade 3 and I am almost 29 years old. I started a routine of nizoral (3 times a week) in addition to biotin (10000 mcg), vitamin D (as I have a deficiency as per a blood test) and multivitamin called priorin. Also, I had 3 sessions of PRP. The hairfall has reduced in the past 3 months but I still have some hairs falling. So, do you recommend me to start with minoxidil only as a baseline Or finasteride only Or both together? Thank you very much doctor!!

Hey doctor. I had a transplant 2 years ago, but the doctor told me not to take minoxidil. I haven't taken minoxidil since before my hair transplant and I think this has affected my results tremendously. I'm currently taking duastride and topical dutasteride, microneedling and prp once a month, you think I should add minoxidil 2 years later?

@hairtransplantinindia

Minoxidil is of no use after 2 years for the transplanted hairs. Since you were on Dutasteride after the procedure that sufficed.

I am taking minoxidil for 3 months. Seems I have less hair fall and the hairs are a little thicker not a hyper responder but some regrowth. I want to start finastride too. Should I wait a while to see full results before finastride or not needed at all or should start when minoxidil results stops.

Firstly, Minoxidil is not a DHT blocker so do not confuse it with oral Finasteride. If you wish to retain hair and decrease balding in future, Finastreide alone will help.

@hairtransplantinindia

Yes that is fine. If you can afford, go for it.

Minoxidil grows new hair, but I never understood how it "maintains" existing hair, like it is marketed. As you said, it's not a blocker and doesn't address the underlying mechanism of androgenic alopecia. Would you say those who use minoxidil without finasteride are simply regrowing hair at a faster rate than they are losing it, and that at a certain point, the rate of losing hair will outpace the rate of regrowth from minoxidil, and so using minoxidil with a dht blocker is recommended to attack the problem from both ends - regrowth and blocking? Sort of like offence and defence, if you will.

@hairtransplantinindia

3 жыл бұрын

Minoxidil as you have correctly interpreted is not the long term panacea for hair loss. Unless DHT is adressed, canot even think of reigning in your baldness. However since Minoxidil and Finasteride have different modes of action, Minoxidil as an adjuvant in support of Finasteride will always give a better looking head of hair.

i was 16 and got an undercut hairstyle (army cut) for ncc. I had a family function in a month so i wanted my hair to grow faster so i started applying oil... didn't help much and a cousin of mine told me to use Minoxidil (told me it is similar to oil but has amazing results). I applied it on my hair line and temporals.. Felt dizziness and headache after an hour or so... later on i dide touch it... two days later i had heavy itching all over my scalp and on cheeks(was very irritating). Took shower and slept. Next morning after waking up observed heavy shedding of hair from my temporal and hairline... Scalp felt very dry and i was worried and scared.. The hairfall continued for more than 3-4 months. Showed to a dermatologist who told me it is androgenic alopecia. Since then till today i have never seen hair growth on the particular area where it was applied. Other than that i have good hair density but i can't style my hair because of irregularities in hairline and temples. There is no history of genetical baldness in my family... No diabetes or any other health issues. I'm 24 and I've lost all confidence to go out and meet people... If i could afford a hair transplant i would surely go for it and i would consult Dr. sahab for the same. I feel helpless.

You disturbed the equilibrium of your hair growth cycle by acting on amateur advice. You surely have androgenetic alopecia. The hair must have been thinning or just about to start thinning. When you applied Minoxidil he hair went into shedding for 3 months. That is what always happens. But then you perhaps stopped Minoxidil and the shedding phase rather than lead to good growth could not not do any better. I doubt it will not help much. You should take prescription Finasteride after showing yourself to a local physician.
