Description


Q and A Week!  Today is Day 3 of Question-and-Answer week.  I am answering questions that have come in through my website, drstreicher.com, my newsletter, or social media..or in this case, from the woman getting her hair shampooed next to me at the beauty salon. 

                                                    Today’s Question 

                       "Will oral minoxidil help my hair grow?"
    In this episode I discuss: 

General options to help with post-menopause androgenic alopecia
The use of oral minoxidil to help hair grow
If using “natural products are safer and more effective than using synthetic products.
