My friend is experiencing a lot of hair fall and seems to be going bald. I'm really curious and a bit worried. Is there a way to actually regrow hair on a bald head?

While it may be challenging to grow hair on a completely bald head, there are some treatment options available that may help stimulate hair growth. One common medication used for male pattern baldness is Minoxidil, which is available in brands like Rogaine. It is typically applied to the scalp twice daily in a 5% solution for men. Another option is Finasteride, which is available in brands like Propecia. It is taken orally in a 1mg dose once daily. These medications may help slow down hair loss and promote some degree of hair regrowth in certain individuals. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the most suitable treatment plan for your friend's specific situation.

You can use Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) tablets 250mg once daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can apply Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry to help with the healing process.
