    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.
    I notice I have some hairs extending from the corners of the temples but they are not really terminal.....I am not on minox though

      What I don't get is how can minoxidil cause excessive body hair but not regrow temple hair...anyone?

      I mean if it can grow new body hair how can it not cause temple regrowth seeing as the application is only inches away from the temples...

        I don't think minoxidil causes excessive body hair. Is this a side effect you read some one had? I have never experienced this and I don't see it as a side effect in the drug information for minoxidil. Is this excessive body hair something you are experiencing?

          No idea if it can increase body hair growth but body and scalp hair are different things. I have read anecdotes of guys who get regrowth on dut but say their body hair thins out when on it

            glad to hear i'm not alone, when i tried minox the only thing it grew was my facial hair

              Or do you have to be applying it to the temples?
              You probably already know this, but Minoxidil DEFINITELY CAN GROW TEMPLE HAIR BACK.

              When I was 20, I was the POSTER CHILD FOR MINOXIDIL. A Board Certified doctor (top in her field)
              prescribed it to me (yes, I'm old as dirt, almost 50 years old, it was 1990 or 1991 then). And it GREW
              all my Norwood 1.5 hairline back. ALL OF IT. And this was 2% as well.

              Beware that Minoxidil is only TEMPORARY. Unless you microdose on Finasteride or Dut, it's useless, and
              won't give you permanent results.
