Follow up: Minoxidil is used to treat female pattern hairloss and is quite effective. You are 18yrs however, and a thorough evaluation or re-evaluation is indicated to trouble shoot the lack of efficacy of your treatment. How long have been on the therapy, are there other symptoms associated with the hairloss etc? We can deal with this in detail if you wish. www.healthtap.com/dr-nnebe
