I've noticed that some parts of my head grow hair really slowly while other areas seem fine. It's a bit strange because the hair seems to be growing at different rates, and Ive experienced a lot of hair fall over the past year. I'm also seeing less hair at the front. Could you tell me what might be causing this and what I could do about it?

View allI've been using Minoxidil for about three weeks now, as my dermatologist suggested it. But after reading about the side effects and realizing that I might have to continue using it for life, I'm starting to have second thoughts. I'm really hoping to improve my hair health by changing my lifestyle and managing my stress levels instead of relying on medications like this. Could you guide me on how to safely stop using Minoxidil without causing too much hair loss? Should I be gradually reducing it from twice a day to once a day, then maybe every other day, or is there another method youd recommend? Also, if you could give me some advice on foods that are good for hair health and ways to have a healthy lifestyle, I'd really appreciate it.
Minoidil works better for hair fall and when you are satisfied with your hair you can wheen it off,also consume protien and vitamin rich food for better results
