A member asked:

Hii doctor .. i am 19 years old and i start to lose my hair . how can i stop it ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a dermatologist: Dermatologists are the experts on alopecia (hair loss). They can prescribe rogaine (minoxidil) or Propecia (finasteride), which won't cause your hair to grow back, but it will slow the hair loss.
