I have completed chemo therapy for malignant melanoma. It was completed in may, 2016. Now I am getting thin hair. I heard about minoxidil. Does it show a good result. Please suggest me what to do to thick hair.

Yes you can use minoxidil and has shown good results to patients using it. You can also try home hair treatments. Apply coconut oil , castor oil mixture every alternate day for at least half and hour. The hair you are losing now will fall and then new hair will grow. No need to panic.
