Can Rogaine cause temple regrowth?

[Breaking Bald]

Can Rogaine cause temple regrowth if you are only applying it to the crown? I always thought it could

Or do you have to be applying it to the temples?

You need to apply it where you want it to have an effect

[PatientlyWaiting]

Apply it on the temples to get possible temple regrowth.

Finasteride on the other hand, would work for your whole scalp. But like I said yesterday, it takes much longer to see hairline/temple regrowth. Probably twice as long as crown regrowth.

Guess I was wrong then. How much should you apply to the temples? I apply half a cap full to crown as recommended, should I just apply a little to the temples? Is applying it at the temples not more likely to cause side effects?

[PatientlyWaiting]

With liquid, I apply 1ml on the crown and middle, and 1ml in the temples.

With foam, I do not know how to measure it but I use some in the crown, some in the middle, and some in the temples.

The only side effects I notice on minoxidil are dark circles around the eye.

Yeah man, minox works pretty much anywhere from what I am experiencing. It made me grow hair that connects my eyebrows to my hairline.

I know what you are talking about. Those always gave me false hope that something was going to start happening on my whole hairline, but all I got to see was vellus hairs popping up on my hairline, but terminal hairs that connect my eyebrow and hairline.

That sucks but your wording made me laugh

Lol.

It's more like the temple, the very corner of the temple, you know what i'm talking about? The temple side that is right next to the eyebrow? Bunch of terminal hairs start growing there. Looks like the start of something good but only vellus hairs show up on the rest of the hairline.

Conflicting views here...So can it or can't it? Because if it can't then that is worrying because my temples are getting worse...

[PatientlyWaiting]

Rogaine can not cause temple regrowth if you are not using it on the temples. If you want to see temple regrowth, apply rogaine on the temples.

Im diffused, so i apply 1/2 to 3/4 a cap on the crown, middle, and front (nw6 pattern), but again i buzz my hair grade 2 usually, so i can easly rub that amount all over my head.

Any joy with temples regrowth aim4hair?

Well this is unfortunate news as I had hoped that my temples were shedding due to minoxidil working...I guess it is just mpb progressing errruuugghh the temples are getting to NW3 status now...

Im not really sure man, i had an HT to fix my hairline and midfront area and started with minox right after that hoping it will either grow more hair or maintain the little i had before HT. so i can't tell if minox did anything or the hair growing is just the transplanted hair.
