Starting to doubt i'll never get those hair's i wiped out back now.
That does seem unusual, unless for some reason your follicles have a much longer resting phase than average. Was there any point during the ten months that you noticed the shed hairs (even some of them) coming back?
Also, sorry to ask since I'm sure you've mentioned it elsewhere, but do you take finasteride or dutasteride?

Yeah seems like a long time to me. Hmm I probably have seen about five hairs if I'm lucky reappear so far, and even then they're hardly noticeable.
It's a bit odd as the hairs I lost were generally strong looking hairs-so not really sure what to think.
Regarding Fin no I've never been on it, too scared-read too much about sides and know someone already going thru apparent bad sides using it that it scares the life outta me.

Hi Minoxidil shedding,
Minoxidil does not kill healthy functioning hair follicles, however it can make hair follicles that look like they are producing healthy hair shed out. The hairs that shed out usually grow back if you continue using the medicine. Since you stopped using Minoxidil, there is no way to know if those hairs that shed out will ever come back. Only time will tell - and it could take a pretty long time. At least a full year. Possibly longer.

I am a female I have used regaine before and did stop it for awhile as I couldn't afford it but now have started using it again and have noticed I have got real bad at thinning on the front of my head and basically you can see my scalp and the back of my head and I am too scared to stop using it in case my hair falls out even more but I've bought a foam now and don't know whether to start that as the way it is going I don't think I will have any hair left on the front soon and I'm trying to cover it over which is very upsetting about this product

Is it okay to use the foam after using the liquid

some times finasteride/spironolactone work for woman. Consult your doctor.
