I've just started using this morr5 stuff in the morning and the regrowth serum at night, and now I'm noticing these white flakes on my scalp. Plus, when I wash my hair in the morning, I find about 15-20 strands falling out. Is this a normal reaction when you first start using these hair treatments? I only began last Saturday.

After applying Morr5% in the morning and Regrowth Serum at night, it is not uncommon to experience some side effects such as white flakes on the scalp and increased hair shedding, especially during the initial days of using these medications. This can be a normal reaction as your scalp adjusts to the new products. To address the white flakes on your scalp, you can try using a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo. As for the increased hair shedding, it is important to continue the treatment as prescribed and monitor the situation. If the shedding persists or worsens, you may consider consulting your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
