Minoxidil Hair Growth Results: What the Studies Really Show

Описание: How Effective Is Minoxidil for Hair Loss? | Topical vs Oral Explained
Minoxidil is one of the most widely used hair-loss medications in the world — but how effective is it really? And why does it work well for some people, yet poorly for others?

In this video, Dr Jonathan Hopkirk, a Sydney-based hair loss doctor, breaks down the real science behind minoxidil, including:
• How topical minoxidil works
• Why only some people respond to it
• The role of sulfotransferase enzymes
• What the studies actually show about regrowth
• Oral minoxidil (off-label): effectiveness and limitations
• What results are realistic — and what aren’t

We review key clinical data on 5% vs 2% topical minoxidil, discuss response rates, timelines, and expectations, and explore emerging evidence around low-dose oral minoxidil for androgenic alopecia.

This video is especially relevant if you:
• Are considering minoxidil for hair loss
• Have used it but aren’t seeing results
• Want to understand oral vs topical options
• Prefer evidence-based hair restoration guidance
