Should I start Minox again??

[Breaking Bald]

I tried a while ago, but only for a few weeks. I was sure I was getting sides (mainly pulitations) so I quit. I'm starting to think it was in my head, but I don't even know tbh.

I'm not trying fin thats for sure, but maybe I should try Regaine again? I need something to help me out until better treatments come around, but I rarely see any major results from minox on forums.

What do you guys reckon?? I was thinking of tapering up to it and just applying it once per day.

Thanks

if you loosing hair around the crown area, I say go for it. Minoxidil works the most around those area.

Yes, but I use it on my temple area, not really successful. I want to drop it but afraid of the sheds

I'm kinda scared of the sheds, the dependency of it and possible sides.

But I'm a sitting duck here, using nothing.

yeah the sheds are terrifying has hell. I don't know bro, I really don't want to give bad advice but if I was in your situation I would taper on minox, once a day.

...not sure if srs...Maybe when some better treatments come out, you can use them to maintain a NW6 or so.

lol Aames.

anyway, i can understand not wanting to use Fin.

Rogaine will certainly make you shed but its a risk/reward scenario. youre going to have to risk the sheds and deal with it for months to get thicker hair. itll be like watching paint dry and first but should work, as it does for most people.

Ive been on it for 2.5 months and I think its helping out my front scalp/corners area. but then again ive been keeping my hair a little longer to cover up my thinning more effectively, so it could just be that. I have high expectations for rogaine on my front scale/corner area because im on Fin though, and they are apparently synergistic.

if you decide to do it, you gotta be dedicated...cant do it for 4 months and give up...gotta go for years

Useful advice as always Aames...I did not realise that there was a law that you had to be on treatments to participate on this forum...

What are your views on using minox once a day guys?

hey dex, even though your results are not great, id say its not as bad a risk on the temples as say the crown no?? as in im in the same scenario as you but when we apply solely to the temples is isnt in contact with much hair??
