I'm having really thin hair and a bald spot on my forehead. My doctor advised me to use Mintop Eva 5, Anaboom anti-hairfall serum, and Trichon Forte tablets, but ever since I started using them, it feels like my hair is falling out even more, and it's getting worse. Can Mintop Eva cause more hair fall at first? Is there any way to stop my hair from falling out like this? And is there any chance I can regrow hair on the bald spot on my forehead? I'm really worried, and I'd love some guidance.

Mintop Eva 5% (Minoxidil) can sometimes cause increased hair shedding initially, but this is usually temporary and is a sign that the medication is working to stimulate new hair growth. It is important to continue using it as prescribed by your doctor. To help stop your hair fall, you can try switching to a different hair growth medication such as Finasteride or Dutasteride, which can be effective in treating male pattern baldness. Additionally, using a shampoo containing Ketoconazole can also help with hair loss. For growing hair on the frontal bald spot, you can consider hair transplant surgery as a permanent solution. It is important to consult with a dermatologist or a hair specialist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.
