    Default More Shedding After Starting Rogaine

    The hair at the right side of my hairline has been thinning for about a year. I began using Rogaine about two months ago. The shedding has increased quite a bit. Is that normal and a good sign that I will get regrowth?

    thanks.

    Hello, yes shedding is very very normal. Expect things to get worse before they get better (as with all things in life), stick it out and you will hopefully see and improvement with time.

    That's good to hear. I feel a bit better now about the situation. I also have just been using it once at the hairline each day because I can't go to work looking so greasy. Do you think it's realistic to expect improvement with just one application per day?

    Thanks.

    Hello, if you're serious about getting some regrowth I would apply it twice a day, it only takes about 10 minutes to dry, once it's dry run a comb through it and you're good to go (I have to apply min to my entire front & midscalp, I don't think I look particularly greasy). If you're not that bothered about your current hair situation and are thinking that Min maybe able to improve your situation but it's no big deal if it doesn't... then, yes you could try applying once a day and see what kind of results you get.
