1. Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL): FPHL is a chronic, progressive condition characterized by thinning hair, especially at the top and front of the scalp. While the exact cause isn’t fully understood, it’s likely influenced by genetics and hormones. Early treatment can help slow progression and promote regrowth.
2. Telogen Effluvium (TE): TE leads to increased hair shedding due to premature release of resting-phase hairs. Common triggers include childbirth, major stressors, illness, surgery, and certain medications. Chronic TE, affecting women aged 30-60, lacks a specific identifiable trigger but doesn’t result in noticeable density changes over time.

Oral Minoxidil: Originally FDA-approved for high blood pressure, oral minoxidil is sometimes prescribed off-label for hair loss in women. Unlike the higher doses used for hypertension (10-40 mg/day), the typical dosage range for hair loss treatment is much lower: 0.25 - 2.5 mg. This approach is often called “low dose oral minoxidil.”

Hair Regrowth Rx: A customized topical solution, Hair Regrowth Rx combines minoxidil, tretinoin, and melatonin. It addresses hair loss from multiple angles, similar to topical minoxidil but with added benefits. Note that using both oral minoxidil and the topical formulation doesn’t provide additional benefits, so it’s not recommended to use both simultaneously.

Hair Regrowth Rx: Developed by dermatologists, Hair Regrowth Rx is a customized topical treatment containing 7% minoxidil, 0.025% tretinoin, and 0.5% melatonin. Although compounded medications aren’t FDA-approved, they address specific patient needs.

Through Good Life, you’ll connect with a US-licensed health professional who will assess whether Hair Regrowth Rx is suitable for you.

Oral Minoxidil: The active ingredient in oral minoxidil is the same as in topical minoxidil (generic Rogaine). While topical minoxidil is FDA-approved for hair loss and available without a prescription, oral minoxidil is considered “off-label” and requires a prescription. Originally approved for high blood pressure (at higher doses), low-dose oral minoxidil tablets are now prescribed as a once-a-day, non-hormonal hair loss treatment. Clinical trials showed that higher doses led to “elongation, thickening, and enhanced pigmentation of body hair,” including on the scalp.

Off-Label Use: Healthcare providers can prescribe medications off-label if they believe it’s appropriate for a specific patient.

Minoxidil helps slow hair loss and promotes regrowth, tretinoin enhances the absorption of minoxidil, and melatonin supports hair growth.

With both oral minoxidil and topical Hair Solution Rx, which is formulated with minoxidil, while the timeline for results may vary, some users begin to see results as soon as 3 months, but those represent the minority. Typically, it takes 6–12 months to see the full benefits.
