Regaine foam 5% and itchy spots? Alternatives

Hi all,

I've been following this forum for a while and I have now registered to ask you all about your experience with Regaine foam 5%.

I've used it for more than a year, but I've now decided to stop it because my forehead and the back of my head had unusual itchy spots.
I used to put Regaine only on the top, but the fact is that since I've stopped, they have disappeared. Could it be allergy to some of the ingredients?

I read that the liquid version of Regaine could give similar problems because of the glycole, but the foam doesn't have glycole, so my question is if anyone else has experienced the same and if yes what alternatives have you found.

I'd also like to add that every now and then I had other strange symptoms, like some discomfort in the chest area or tingling, although it looks like this was due to vitamins deficiency that I've now solved.

I'll be grateful to read your comments.

Thanks.

Mark
