Dear madam I was applying minoxidil 5% initially as suggested by my physician to cure alopecia but my scalp sometimes feels etched or aching on applying it. Should I continue to apply it? Is there any other medicine to prevent alopecia Is fenugreek seeds a good remedy for alopecia.

First of all minoxidil patch test should be done. Some pts are allergic to this. U can use Q sera hair serum or Mintop Pro hair serum twice daily.

Yes fenugreek is good. Also Try to use gooseberry and onion juice daily for 30 minutes. It will help with grey hair, dandruff, hair loss and strengthening the hair.
