Brief Summary
|
A randomised comparitive three-armed trial to study the efficacy of low dose oral minoxidil 2.5mg once daily versus 5% topical minoxidil twice daily versus 5% topical minoxidil twice daily and PRP combination in androgenetic alopecia. Patient followed up for 6 months, where improvement assessed using clinical photographs and videodermoscope. 5 patients of each group will be randomly selected for biopsy to study the nature of Treg cells and its signalling pathways post treatment. |
