I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss. Before I started my TB treatment, my front hairline was already thinning, but once I began the medication, it really got worse, and now I'm losing even more hair. I'm really worried about whether my hair will regrow or not. Is there anything I can do to help my hair grow back?

Is it okay to use Grocapix solution? Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Will it actually help in stopping hair loss and maybe even help regrow the lost hair? I've been prescribed Androanagen tablets along with the Grocapix solution. I'm also wondering, if I stop using these, is it gonna lead to more hair fall like it happens with minoxidil?

continue same treatment.
