What happens if I stop the therapy?

The effect lasts only as long as you continue the therapy. If you stop it, hereditary hair loss usually returns within a few months. The hair that grew back in the meantime can then fall out again as well.
This is due to the cause itself: the hair loss is hereditary and cannot be cured, only held back for as long as the active ingredients are working.
If you want to pause or stop, discuss it with your doctor. That way you can understand what it means for how things develop for you.
