Question Rogaine Foam? Benefits?

I’m thinking about adding Rogaine Foam to my treatment plan and was wondering what people here thought about it. Is Rogaine foam better than plain Rogaine.

Thanks!

I hope someone will answer your question because I might want to give Rogaine foam a try too.

I have wavered over the years as to whether or not I am a fan of Monoxidil.
I certainly do not want to be the doctor that tells a patient to stop using Minoxidil and have them experience a wave of thinning shortly after. However,
if a patient inquires into the different types of Minoxdil and wants to know what I have seen to be the most effective, I tell them the 5% foam or find a compounding pharmacy that makes a stronger formula(10%). The foam tends to stay on the scalp longer and therefore can probably give a full effect even when used once a day at night. Using it this way allows you to wash it out in the morning and not have to deal with the hair styling issues.
