A member asked:

Using minoxodil for 4mnths 5% 2ml daily it is making hair snap break alot near hairline hav no hairloss using it to thicken up my hair wat do i do now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Several things: You may need iron status studies and thyroid function screening if not done already by your Primary Care Doctor. If they are normal, biotin 5mg a day can help thicken hair and strengthen it over a few months and pantothenol in shampoos can thicken hair shafts about 10%. If the labs are abnormal, correcting the problem will usually help the hair within 3 months to reduce breakage and improve hair
