To effectively treat hair loss and promote growth, two FDA-approved medications are widely recommended. First is Minoxidil, an over-the-counter topical liquid, gel, or foam applied directly to the scalp to stimulate hair follicles. Second is Finasteride, a prescription oral tablet that stops hair loss by blocking DHT, the hormone responsible for male pattern baldness. For some, combining these with supportive supplements like Biotin or Zinc helps. Because hair loss can stem from various causes like genetics, stress, or deficiencies, I highly recommend consulting a dermatologist to get a personalised diagnosis and prescription before starting any treatment.
