    Tapering Minoxidil from once a day

    Hi guys. I'm new to this forum and I would appreciate your opinion. I have been taking Minoxidil foam 5% for about 5 years and a half. Initially I started with twice daily for about 3-4 months and the decreased to once a day as it started to be less effective(in my opinion, back then). So initially I got a lot of shedding but then it kind of stabilized. So I continued to use it once a day, before I go to bed, for about 5 years now. To be honest my hair probably go to the same point as it as before I started in about a year after I started using it. I persevered but my hair kept falling slowly over the years. It's around Norwood 5 now. I'm thinking about tapering it down to once every two days for a few weeks/months and then once every 3-4 days, and the stop completely. What I'm trying to do is stop completely and avoid a massive hair shed at the same time. What are your opinions on it?
