Ive been using onion juice for hair regrowth, especially for male pattern baldness, but Im not sure if it will actually help since it could be a genetic issue. Can onion juice cause any side effects or is it safe to use for hair growth?

Onion juice may help promote hair regrowth, but its effectiveness for male pattern baldness, especially with genetic factors, is limited, and potential side effects include skin irritation, allergic reactions, and eye irritation.
