Hi doctors I'm an 18 year-old-girl.I don't have any hormonal disorders,and my period is regular but I am suffering from hair loss. My doctor said that I have alopecia and he asked me to use minoxidil

at your age alopecia can be secondary to a high androgen level, so i recommend to see a gynecologist for a pelvic ultrasound and a hormonal workup..
