Thanks for writing to us at Chat Doctor Your hair loss is due to Androgenetic Alopecia, which is essentially a genetic predisposition to hair loss and runs in families. Hair loss is mainly from the frontal scalp and later on involves the crown, if allowed to progress unchecked. Anterior hair line may gradually recede and there is widening and deepening at the angles of anterior hair line. It is important to begin therapy as soon as possible to arrest further progression. Minoxidil and finasteride are US FDA approved for this type of hair loss. Tu gain contains minoxidil. Minoxidil is to be used twice daily at scalp skin after through cleaning the scalp with a shampoo; it is never to be used immediately after bath on wet scalp, and it is advisable to wait till the scalp and scalp hair is air Chat Doctor. Finasteride dosage is once daily. Hair oil is not advisable while on treatment with Minoxidil because oils will hinder absorption of minoxidil. Treatment must be religiously continued for at least 3-4 months for noticeable results and up to 2 years for maximum benefits. Regards </s>
