Oral minoxidil with or without a supplement for female hair loss
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a daily pill (oral minoxidil) works for mild female pattern hair loss, either by itself or combined with a drinkable supplement. It aims to see which approach improves hair growth and reduces shedding, and how it affects women's feelings about hair loss.
