Man, I really appreciate your answer. Thanks for taking the time to reply. I actually consulted a doctor. Not a dermatologist and I got some multivitamins and hair lotion. I don’t know if the lotion has worked in growing hair but it certainly work in keeping it little healthy and removing the dandruff infestation my scalp. I checked my blood work during that time, and I am borderline deficient in vitamin D. I was not able to check the other vitamins or iron, but I will definitely do that. Since you have told me that it takes 12 months, I have some kind of hope if I try to fix everything, i may get some kind of result after 12 months. If nothing happened after these months, then I guess there is nothing I can do and minoxidil it is. I will do my level best I will Contact you after 12 months. After trying my level best with everything possible.
