Who qualifies for Minoxidil

The doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if Minoxidil is right for you. Minoxidil is primarily prescribed for androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness). During your online consultation, the doctor will assess your medical history, current medications, and the type and extent of your hair loss. They consider potential contraindications such as certain heart conditions, scalp issues, or allergies to Minoxidil. The goal is to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for your individual needs. They will also discuss realistic expectations and potential side effects.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Minoxidil is a topical or oral medication that works by widening blood vessels in the scalp, which improves blood flow to hair follicles. This increased circulation helps to stimulate dormant hair follicles, encouraging hair regrowth and thickening existing strands. It's an effective treatment for specific types of hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia. However, Minoxidil doesn't cure hair loss; it manages it. Consistent use is necessary to maintain results. It doesn't work for all types of hair loss, and results vary from person to person. You typically see initial results within 2–4 months, with maximum benefits appearing after 6–12 months of continuous use.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Minoxidil can have side effects. Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, flaking, itching, or unwanted hair growth on other parts of the body if the product spreads beyond the scalp. Less common but more serious side effects can include dizziness, rapid heartbeat, swelling of hands or feet, or unexplained weight gain. If you experience any severe or concerning side effects, or if your condition worsens, you should stop using Minoxidil and consult a doctor immediately. Your Hi-Doctor physician can advise you on these matters through your private chat.
