telogen effluvium after stopping minoxidil but continuing finasteride
i have been on minoxidil 5% and finasteride 1 mg daily for 12 months where i had excellent results and then stopped minoxidil and continued on finasteride. after 3-4 months of stopping minoxidil i observed thinning of my hair all over the scalp. i heard stopping minoxidil causes telogen effluvium but i did not use minoxidl all over the scalp but hairloss is all over.can anybody explain this? anybody with similar experience? i am again back on minoxidil

Minoxidil grew you hair and when you stop you lose it, simple as that.

thanks for the reply dude but i used minoxidil only on my forehead and a little at the vertex.does this affect the entire scalp?
