Well, my doc wanted me to use oral Minoxidil and not topical, so I'd prefer to avoid 'fessing up about that 😄

Just from the research I did, three months seemed a good period. I read in some places it had to be six months. But if people on here are saying a single month, I can get onboard with that, as this site is my most trusted resource. Thanks again for the replies, but I'm still looking for my answer, lads 😄

Thanks, both. I don't want to use oral Minoxidil 'cause of the possible effect on your heart(!). I'm still not clear. If I stop using Minoxidil for three months post surgery, will my hair loss restart at the point it was when I started the Minoxidil, or will any hair that would have fallen out if I wasn't using Minoxidil, fall out?

Many thanks. I don't want to take Fin or Dut, it's topical Minoxidil only. Anyone else have a more conclusive answer? 🙂

I had a transplant in January, and am planning on a second one to take care of the crown. I'm using topical Minoxidil on the top and front of my head, as I assumed the crown area had no more hair to lose, but now I want to Minoxidil the crown area too. My question is, does Minoxidil halt hair loss, or just keep the hair from falling out whilst you're using it? When I have the second transplant I would need to stop the Minoxidil for three months on the recipient area, so it'd obviously be a waste of time starting it prior, if any hair would fall out anyway when I stopped. Thanks 🙂

So it's the same as washing then. Thanks 🙂

Tried Googling this but no luck. Thanks 🙂

Thanks, lads. It came up when I Googled it. It was an iffy article; it also said Minoxidil or other aids were pointless after a transplant.

Many thanks 🙂

Everywhere else say's Minoxidil is fine, but you know how it is, that one article in a hundred 🙂

Thanks so much, very informative 🙂

Anybody?
