Treatments are available to help you manage symptoms. And you can incorporate lifestyle habits and coping strategies to help you live better with psoriasis

I've been dealing with this hair issue for about two to three months now and I'm taking biotin tablets and using Zycafy M daily. I've been wondering if adding minoxidil would help with hair regrowth. Do you think it would be beneficial to start using it, or should I continue with the current routine? I'm really looking for some advice on the best next steps.

yes you can use minoxidil as an addon but use it as advised by your doctor because there are various concentrations of minoxidil which is decided over severity of hair fall,apart from this consume balanced diet with extra protien for healthy hair.

I'm looking for some advice on diet and medication after having PRP treatment. I'm hoping to get the best results possible. Also, I've heard about MORR F Red and I'm a bit worried. If I start using it, could it cause problems if I decide to stop later? What do you think?

After PRP treatment, it is important to follow a healthy diet rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals to support hair growth. Additionally, you can consider using Minoxidil solution (brand name Rogaine) to promote hair regrowth. As for MORR F, it is a combination medication containing Minoxidil and Finasteride. Finasteride helps to prevent hair loss by blocking the hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles. However, it is important to note that Finasteride may cause negative effects if stopped abruptly. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider before starting MORR F and to follow their guidance on proper usage and discontinuation.
