    Default Switching minoxidil strengths?

    So.. I've been using Minox 2% solution for about 3 and a bit months now and I'm just starting to show improvements. The reason I was using 2 was because I was living somewhere where the closest pharmacy I lived to only sold 2%.
    I recently moved to another country and they only sell 5%! So, I've started using the 5% solution. My question is, do you think I'll notice any difference? Will I go through another shed? (I'm not even sure if I shed when I started using 2%). Has anyone had experience with this?

    if your responding to 2% that is good. go with the 5% if thats whats available. you might have a shed, but I'm sure u will get back all your gains even if you do have a shed. 5% is the standard for men anyways, so you are good. responding to minoxidil is key.
