Question by Carnation: Is it safe to use Minoxidil (hair loss treatment) for a teenager?
I am 18 years and I’ve recently been experiencing thinning of hair on my scalp, and I have a noticeably receding hairline. I don’t know what might be the cause, but it’s either a hormone imbalance or hereditary. Nevertheless, I read about this hair loss treatment called Minoxidil which is used to effectively stabilize hair growth and inhibit further hair loss. It’s basically a bottle of transparent fluid you massage on to your scalp for a period of 4 months.
Now my question is, is it safe to use Minoxidil for a female my age? I was wondering maybe it’s only for adults and people (particularly males) who are actually experiencing severe balding.
Please, if you are knowledgeable about this product or/and have used it before I would really love some advice and info.

Thank you very much!

Who is a good candidate for minoxidil?

The perfect candidate for Minoxidil is a young male who is just starting to bald in the vertex/ crown area of the scalp.

Question by sunshine: What is the diagnosis of a teenager losing hair and weight loss?
What if a teenage boy around 14, had hair loss and lost weight about 4 pounds of normal weight, what diagnosis is that? Is it cancer, lukekimia, or something else? If it’s cancer or lukekimia what stage is this? Tell me real facts! :) )

We can’t diagnose you by those 2 symptoms alone. It MIGHT be cancer, it can also be stress. You need to get a blood test to determine what REALLY is going on with your body. Talk about your concerns with your doctor.
