Does Minoxidil Work Effectively for Everyone?

Does minoxidil increase hair thickness in every case?
Is there an individual difference in efficacy of the treatment with minoxidil?
A 2.
There is always an individual difference in the efficacy of every drug.
Those who respond well to a drug is called a responder. Those who doesn’t show any significant change with the drug is called a non-responder.
If someone is a responder to minoxidil, hair will become thick remarkably after usage of minoxidil solution for about 6-12 months.
If someone is a non-responder to minoxidil, hair thickness will not increase even after usage of minoxidil solution for many years.
Even if hair thickness doesn’t increase with topical minoxidil, however, you had better continue to use a minoxidil solution. It will be helpful for everyone to preserve existing hair to some extent in the long term.
