Can I Use Minoxidil for Male Hair Loss While Trying for a Baby?'
Name: Nigel
Question: My wife and I have decided to start trying for a baby so I have a question about my hair loss treatments. I understand I need to stop using propecia a week before but what about minoxidil? Do I need to stop using that too and how long do I wait for it to leave my system? Many thanks.
Answer: Hi, Nigel. You are absolutely right about this regardless of which brand of finasteride 1mg you use. We advise men to stop taking this seven days before they start trying for a baby as a precautionary measure. However, you can continue using topical applications of minoxidil as well as oral minoxidil during this time.
