@drheejink: Many people ask about rosemary oil, but it’s not the most effective treatment with the most data. Rogaine or Minoxidil 5% is still my first go-to recommendation for pattern hair loss treatment. It doesn’t matter if it’s men’s or women’s, just whichever has minoxidil 5%. If you can tolerate topical minoxidil without side effects, I usually recommend it 1-2x per day for at least 6 months. It takes time to work so being consistent with it is the best to see results. IF patients are seeking natural alternatives and/or cannot tolerate minoxidil, then rosemary oil could be a natural option. Using rosemary oil 2x per day has been shown to have maybe similar efficacy as minoxidil 2%. Also, keep in mind that there are many different types of hair loss and different things that can contribute to hair loss. It’s important to see your dermatologist for appropriate treatment plan. :) #drheejink #minoxidill #rosemaryoil #hairlosstips #dermatologist
