BALDNESS: So long as you do what your Dr. says will the hairloss stop and you just keep the amount of hair you had when you started treatment (treatment being minoxidol and spironolactone)?

no cure for baldness.

Humans use minoxidil to stop ‘baldness’ because we really have no idea what it does. We do though know that a side effect of minoxidil is hair growth. So we counter our hair loss by taking advantage of this side effect.

So when you think about it, you really aren’t stopping baldness. Just getting temporary growth from the minoxidil. Once the drug stops working you’ll still be losing hair.

    Well there is no clear cut cure for baldness, if it continues after treatment for several weeks, see him again and he’ll switch the medicine until he finds one that works. That’s about it for modern day tech ^^

    yes he is 100% correct.

    hair gained with these medicines will be gradually lost after terminating the treatment.

    so you just keep the amount of hair you had when you started treatment

    may be you will keep a little of these newly gained hair for a longer time

    betamethasone SCALP LOTION also works to stop hair fall
