I am gonna state whole story briefly
From August to November 2016 i underwent lot of psychological stress and i lost hair on the front hairline.I consulted a doctor and he suggested me to use 5% Minoxidil (Tugaine) .I started using it twice since January Mid now so it has been about 30-40 days of regular twice usage.Now here are the problems i am facing
1)My eyes,cheeks and face is swollen all the time along with slight burning sensation in eyes,is it common side effect of minoxidil to cause face bloating ?
2)I lost hair on the front side and top even more along with thinning after usage of Minoxidil ,which also caused bumpy scalp that pains a little bit.
3)On front side there appears clusters of hair now and rest of the scalp is visible and the hair loss is visible there.
Now that i told my doctor about the issues i am facing, i was told to stop using minoxidil immediately.So i would like to know
1)If after 30-40 days of usage, I stop using minoxidil from today,would it cause any more harm to my hair now?
2)I really don't like the idea of being dependent on Minoxidil for my hair which were really healthy and i took it for front hairline ,so does usage for 30-40 days makes me dependent on it ?
3)Will i gain the hair lost during usage of minoxidil because there has between around 30% decrease in volume ?
4)Is taking biotin supplement a safe remedy ?
