Can I start taking Minoxidil or should I consult a dermatologist first?
Apr 11, 2014
Always better to consult a professional. Some reasons for hair loss may include hereditary factors, dietary and vitamin insufficiencies, stress, etc... A dermatologist is able to tell you the reason behind your hair loss and whether Minoxidil is right for you or not.
