A member asked:
Have been using minox for months (iron related hairloss), doesn't work! still no regrowth after one and half months of supplementation?? how come??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too early to tell: Iron deficiency may be related to hair loss. That type falls into a category of Telogen effluvium. Prognosis is good if your iron level, or much redmeat is being noted.
