Question 5

I stopped using minoxidil about 3 months ago, and I'm still experiencing hair fall. How long will this continue after stopping the treatment? When will my hair start to get back to normal? I had been using minoxidil for about 6 monthsfirst 2% for 3 m...

Accepted Answer

When you stop using minoxidil, hair shedding is common because the hair growth stimulated by minoxidil enters a resting phase. This shedding period can last a few weeks to a few months, depending on individual factors. However, for many, hair fall should stabilize within 3-6 months after stopping minoxidil, and the hair should return to its previous state (before minoxidil) over time.To support your hair during this period:- Maintain a Healthy Diet: Nutrients like biotin, vitamins A, D, E, and minerals like zinc and iron are important. BTN Ultra biotin can support hair health, but ensure a balanced intake.- Reduce Stress: Stress management can help reduce hair loss and improve recovery.- Use Mild Hair Products: Avoid harsh chemicals and use gentle shampoos to support your scalp.If the hair fall continues or worsens, a follow-up with your dermatologist may be beneficial for personalized advice and to rule out other underlying causes.
