I'm trying to figure out if procapil is really effective for dealing with hair thinning and a receding hairline due to androgenic alopecia. I've been thinking about using it instead of minoxidil because I've read that minoxidil can have some side effects. Can you let me know which option might be safer or more effective?

Procapil is a hair growth peptide that has shown promising results in treating androgenic alopecia, hair thinning, and receding hairline. It works by targeting the main causes of hair loss and promoting hair growth. It can be a good alternative to minoxidil solution, which is known to have some side effects such as scalp irritation and unwanted hair growth in other areas of the body.

View allI've been using xpecia gel and keraxl hair serum for about two weeks just like my dermatologist recommended. I'm concerned because Im not seeing any changes, and Ive read that my hair should be shedding if the minoxidil is doing its thing. Plus, my hair is really short since I've recently gone bald. What should I be doing differently?
use previous gel

I'm a bit confused about a prescription I got. The dermatologist recommended Trilast Hair solution and Q Sera hair serum. Do I need to use both, or just one of them? I'm not sure what's best for my hair, and I really want to get it right. Can you help clarify this?
You were prescribed two different products: Trilast Hair solution and Q sera hair serum. You should use both as per the dermatologist's instructions. Trilast Hair solution is typically applied once daily on the scalp, while Q sera hair serum is usually applied twice daily on the affected areas. Follow the dosage and application instructions provided by your dermatologist for the best results.
