A member asked:

I am 21 yrs of age. i've started losing hair from the age of 15, hav lost lot of hair til now. is thr a non surgical way to regain all lost hair? help

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: The topical and oral meds for hair may slow your hair loss but probably will not reverse it. Sometimes they grow new hair but for most people they just help them keep the hair they already have. Usually this means minoxidil solution and finasteride pills.
