January 2016 in “Indian Journal of Paediatric Dermatology” June 2022 in “Dermatologic Therapy” A 14-year-old girl with hereditary hypotrichosis simplex (HS), a rare form of nonsyndromic alopecia, showed significant improvement in hair density and thickness after 3 months of treatment with oral minoxidil (0.25 mg daily) and growth factors. HS is characterized by progressive scalp hair loss starting in childhood, often leading to near-complete baldness by the third decade. The patient, who had a LIPH gene mutation, experienced positive results, suggesting that oral minoxidil can be an effective treatment for improving hair density and thickness in congenital hypotrichosis.

March 2023 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” A 52-year-old female with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer experienced alopecia after 6 months of letrozole treatment. Topical minoxidil (5%) was ineffective after 12 months, so she was switched to low-dose oral minoxidil (1.25 mg daily). After 10 months, her hair density and thickness significantly improved without adverse effects. This case suggests that low-dose oral minoxidil may be effective for endocrine therapy-induced alopecia (EIA) when topical treatments fail. Further studies are needed to confirm its safety and efficacy.
