Happy Tuesday!

Has the shampoo been working
Is it working?
This product corrected a issue I had with hair follicles on my cheeks and I still use it 👍🏻 What I don’t understand is why the color of the hair in that area went back to what it was a decade ago. 🧐
interesting!
Happy Tuesday! Hope you’re having a wond ful day! God Bless Always!!🙏🤠🌻🌻🌻🙏
Hi Uncle Charlie! Happy Tuesday!! I hope you had a wonderful day, my friend. Peace, joy and many blessings to you. 🕊🙏☕
Hair loss really is a troublesome issue to have and i know it well because I’ve been through treatment for hair loss and to be more specific i used helenvita tonic shampoo for men and vencil hair tonic spray combined together in a single spray bottle with botafex aka minoxidil 5% for six months with certain instructions to follow by my dermatologist😊❤ and now fortunately i don’t have to use them anymore because my kind of alopecia didn’t have to get minoxidil forever. I really liked today’s video it was super informative Doctor Andrea 😊.
very frustrating
I love Nizoral shampoo! I use it daily for scalp health and to combat dandruff. By the way, you are glowing Dr Dray!
Thank you Dr Dray!! This information is golden!!! I am experiencing some hair thinning due to Tamoxifen. Currently using minoxidil and I have been looking for a shampoo to supplement that so I will definitely try the Nizoral shampoo. Thank you so much.
I’m post menopausal (hair thinned a bit then) and have noticed similar hair thinning while taking anastrozole. I’m excited to try Nizoral and HOPE that once I finish the 5 years on anastrozole (March 2024) my hair thinning will stabilize 🤞
My derm prescribed me topical minoxidil 5%, finasteride 1% and Bimatoprost 0.0015%. It’s like an oil, and seems to be working really well. Been using for 2 months so far, I’m happy and can’t wait to see the results at the 6 month mark! He also said to use this shampoo in conjunction, will buy after I finish the head and shoulders.
Does the minoxidil make you dizzy at all? How much do you use? ❤
0:00: ! Ketoconazol is discussed as a potential treatment for hair growth in individuals experiencing androgenetic alopecia, a common type of hair loss related to genetics and androgen hormones.
4:03: 💊 Oral minoxidil is being increasingly used by dermatologists for hair loss treatment, but it can have sexual side effects and may cause facial hair growth in women.
7:36: 💆 Topical finasteride and ketoconazole shampoo may be effective treatments for androgenetic alopecia in men and women.
11:36: 💆 The ketoconazol shampoo is safe to use during pregnancy, but it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider.
15:23: 💆♂️ Incorporate evidence-based scalp health routine with minoxidil and ketoconazole for better results.

Thank you sweetie!
thank you so much
Thamk you so much!
This video is perfect timing because, as a newly menopausal woman, I have been experiencing hair thinning due to high free testosterone. I sat in my dermatologist’s office yesterday for this very issue. She gave me several options like what you mentioned here. My job was to make a decision on what I wanted to do. I needed to research these suggestions. Thank you, Dr. Dray, for your help today with this video. 💗
I have used Rogaine for 10 plus years to keep the hair I have. I started adding Ketconozol about a year ago as prescribed by my derm. I used the shampoo once a week. Seems to help some with hair loss. Thanks for the video!
Is it ok to use colour to dye hair while using Minoxidil?
I wait a couple of days after I color my hair before using Minoxidil. My scalp gets itchy if it don’t wait because both products dried out my scalp. Other then those couple of days, I use minoxidil everyday.
Hi Dr. Dray, I’ve had hair loss since my 20s; it was blamed on birth control pill. The years have gone by and birth control hasn’t been used for ages. About three years ago I started getting scabs on my scalp, but only top front of head; with a terrible itch as if I had ants crawling inside my scalp. Long story short dermatologists recommended prescription clobetasol for the itch which did work, but it didn’t take care of the scabs. Until I found your channel! I’ve been using the 1% Nizoral for the past two months or so, what a difference to my scalp, no scabs or itch. Last week I started on the 2% which I will use 2-3 times a week. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your valuable knowledge. Keep safe
I tried topical minoxidil and it was hard to be compliant as it was a mess and I have a cat who tried to lick it off my scalp. I am now on oral and after six months I am starting to see things fill in a bit which is great. I have a check in in a few months with my dermatologist, and I am going to have to ask about using the shampoo in combination with the oral tablets. Hair loss in women is something no one wants to talk about because we are embarrassed . But many suffer . I’ve cried many a times over my hair loss .Thank you for covering this topic.
Nizoral was super effective against dandruff on me, but one side effect I have not heard anyone mention is that it dries out my hair (turns like straw texture). So I had to stop using it for awhile and/or only use it once in awhile.
I wash my scalp with Nizoral, rinse and then use regular shampoo for the rest of my hair. Sometimes, I will put conditioner on my hair, excluding my scalp, use Nizoral on my scalp, rinse, and then wash the rest of my hair.

I have androgenetic alopecia and minoxidil never worked for me, however I’ve been on daily oral finasteride for almost 8 months. No side effects thankfully. And I’ve noticed my roots feel denser and stronger, my scalp doesn’t feel as sensitive as before, and overall my hair sheds less. I think it definitely does slow/prevent follicle miniaturization, and with time can help strengthen and maintain the hair you still have on your scalp. I do like to use Nizoral 2% shampoo as well from time to time as a conjunction treatment. I lather it first, leave it on minimum 2 minutes before rinsing it out. I definitely do agree that, regardless, it is important to keep realistic expectations with any of the treatments you mentioned!
Shampoo alone can’t do much for hair loss, but if you’re suffering, don’t lose hope. I’ve had aggressive hair loss, and even my family has a history of it. I managed to keep 90% of my hair with minoxidil and microneedling. I believe DHT is linked to blood circulation (DHT cause inflammation which block oxygen and Blood supply = kill the follicle), At first I started with a roller without any results, once I switched to a high-quality pen results started to kick in. It worked for me and my mom in her 60s (She used 2% though). Be consistent, use a good pen, and don’t skip sessions. if it worked for me, It can work for everyone.
I hear more and more people who have huge success with microneedling, can you share the brand of your Pen that you are using please? thanks for this comment btw!

She definitely not saying shampoo alone is end all .. she has tons of videos on hair loss but not everyone needs all the extra ❤
+1 for kora, I am using the device for about 2.5 years now. once i added kora to my routine I noticed massive growth after about two months
Do you lose hair again when stop taking topical minoxidil? Also, did it affect your hormones?
Hi Dr. Dray! This is a bit off topic, but I was looking at papers about red light therapy and combo blue/red light therapy for acne/anti-aging, and saw that a reported effect in some studies was reduction of sebum/porphyrin. I think all the papers I looked at which measured sebum reported reduction of sebum, but most anti-aging papers don’t. As someone with normal to dry skin, I was wondering if you think the sebum reduction would worsen skin dryness?
Here is my experience with dandruff; I have been using Head and Shoulders for years, I tried every variety and my dandruff got worse and worse, I tried T Sal and Nizoral to no avail. On a whim I went to Walmart and got some Selsun Blu 1% selenium sulfide dandruff shampoo. I showered and let it stay on my head for about 5 minutes before rinsing. I knew it worked because I went to bed and didn’t wake in the middle of the night scratching the scale all over my head. It was like night and day, my scalp was CALM and not itchy. This was a little over a week ago and all of the sores on my head are gone. I have a few flakes now and then but nothing like it was. I am 72 years old male.
I (a woman) had a horrible experience with 5% minoxidil where I actually lost hair. After using it for over a year on my temple areas, I started to get raised sores and psoriasis-type plaques! I stopped the minoxidil and started using Nizoral and oral pumpkin seed oil. I now have lots of baby hairs filling in the bald areas.
I went for decades with seborrheic dermatitis, and I tried all dandruff shampoos. When Nizoral went OTC, I finally found the product that completely controlled SD. It was a mini-miracle for my scalp. I never thought about it for hair loss.
Thank you for your recommendation regarding the scalp massager. It feels so good! The Nizoral you recommend has been a life saver. I did not have dandruff , but I had really unpleasant itching that has mostly gone away. I appreciate your advice— thank you!
Great video Dr. Dray! Thoughts on the new Nizoral conditioner? Is it a good anti-dandruff conditioner or do you recommend not conditioning after using Nizoral shampoo to avoid adding oils back to the scalp to prevent the yeast thriving?
