    Did anyone tried 5% minoxidil? Can we get the Over the counter topical application product. If yes, which brand works best? Does it have side effects like hair loss once we stop using it. What is the best way to use it for hair regrowth minimizing side effects?

    Try the oral minoxidil. It works very well for a lot of women and is not as messy. You need a prescription but plenty of online pharmacies offer it and it is very affordable. You will have to take any form of minoxidil permanently. If you stop then all the regrown hair will eventually fall out.

    First off, your hair loss can be due to different reasons including telogen effluvium. For certain conditions, you just have to let hair go through its natural cycle of hair loss before you see it get better.

    Go to a dermatologist and have it checked out. Minoxidil works as long as you keep using it but your hair goes back to its natural state once you stop using it.

    For Rosemary oil, best way to do it is make your own. Rosemary is such a common herb that you can mix it with any carrier oil and prepare your own potent rosemary oil.
