Female Pattern Loss: The only medication approved by the United States food and drug administration (fda) to treat female pattern baldness is minoxidil. It is applied to the scalp. For women, the 2% concentration is recommended. Minoxidil may help hair grow in about 1 in 4 or 5 of women. In most women it may slow or stop hair loss. You must continue to use this medicine for a long time. Spiranolactone can help.
