Hi Doc.

I would appreciate your views in relation to whether it would be worth trying medications like minoxidil, finasteride to regrow all or some hair back after the hair as be absent as in a fully blown NW 6-7 for twenty years? If you could fine the time to answer, i would also appreciate it if you could advise if the answer is on the blog or a personal reply. Many thanx

Those individuals may be helped by some medication, but I would have to see you to make that determination.

This is not a question that can really be answered without an exam, except for a general hand sweep, but if you want a specific issue addressed you need to see a good doctor.
