I administer a topical solution (daily) of minoxidil 5% mixed with amenexil 2.5 cc. My wife and I are thinking of start trying for children. I would like to know if there in an increased risk for birth defects if I continue to administer this hair solution please? Also, can I continue using it whilst my wife is pregnant? Thank you.
