I have been losing hair on the sides of my head kinda of like streaks one doctor said to use 10 percent minoxidil and the other said use a multi vitamin. the minoxidil seems to help on the front of my head. have not used it any where else on my head ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both may be right.: Minoxidil can address hair re-growth. Vitamins may address any nutritional deficiencies that are effecting hair loss.
