Is Minoxidil Still Effective If I Restart It After Giving Birth? – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

I started using Minoxidil about 4 months ago, and it has been working nicely. I plan to try for a third child in a couple of years. I know pregnancy hormones protect your hair from falling out (as much) during pregnancy, but I would expect to lose some hair after the birth. My question for you is this: Is Minoxidil as effective the second time around? If I restart it after taking a break for pregnancy, should I expect good results?

There is no rule on minoxidil where you cannot restart using it. If it has helped in the past, you can try again. I would not know what to expect, but it is worth a shot!

Any readers have first hand experience with stopping and restarting minoxidil after a pregnancy?
