I'm a bit worried about taking Evion 400 capsules. I've got combination skin and I'm concerned it might make my skin oilier. Could that happen?

View allI'm really concerned because I've been using minoxidil for about 8 months now, and lately I've noticed that my hair is falling out quite a bit. It's like every time I comb my hair, apply the minoxidil, or even just touch my scalp, I see 7 or 8 strands coming out. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
Excessive hair fall after using minoxidil for 8 months is concerning. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Minoxidil side effect_: Hair fall is a rare but possible side effect of minoxidil. 2. _Over-stimulation_: Long-term use of minoxidil can cause over-stimulation of hair growth, leading to hair fall. 3. _Underlying condition_: An underlying condition, such as androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, or scalp inflammation, might be contributing to hair fall. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a dermatologist_: Stop using minoxidil and consult a dermatologist to determine the underlying cause of hair fall. 2. _Reduce minoxidil frequency_: If the dermatologist recommends continuing minoxidil, try reducing the frequency of application to once a day or every other day. 3. _Add a scalp serum_: Use a scalp serum containing ingredients like saw palmetto, biotin, or keratin to help strengthen hair follicles and reduce hair fall. 4. _Maintain a gentle hair care routine_: Avoid excessive heat styling, use a gentle shampoo, and minimize combing or brushing to reduce hair fall.
