    Question Even more hair loss after using Minoxidil for a month

    I'm an 18 year old guy, I noticed some hairloss on both sides of my temples at the beginning of this year (2014), i initially took it was granted, but then I started losing more hair and the bald patches(2) started getting bigger.
    So, I went to a dermatologist in the end of october, and she recommended 5% minoxidil and some vitamin tablets, which I used for a month and instead noticed even more thinning of my hair, around the bald areas AND at the front.
    I went to another doctor, and she recommended Kera XL hair growth serum. I searched the internet and read some stuff on other forums where some experts had recommended using minoxidil as well as Kera XL, each once a day. So, I've been doing that for about 2 weeks now, and other than some tiny hairs growing on the bald areas and less overall hairfall(thank god), I haven't noticed any other improvement. I was expecting my hair to get thicker, and the frontal hair thinning is worrying me. What if it doesn't reverse?
