First rogaine application

[itssomuchfun]

Great posts guys/gals. I'm 3.5 months in with Rogaine foam. My shedding is a tad more complicated though because I might have caused some of the shedding with a diet (lost 30lbs) I had started a few months prior to started Rogaine. Still I am pretty sure I have lost a significant amount of hair from the Rogaine. I have not seem much in the results, but my doctor says he sees some regrowth at the crown. I'm now started to apply it all over, the sides included, because I've thinned out everywhere, and I've added a lotion (Betamethasone) to keep my scalp healthier. Really hoping to see this turn around at the 4-6 month marker when it's often observed to start taking effect.

Also, the Rogaine website is only marginally useful. I have seen soooo many people talking about shedding for longer than 2 weeks, which is when they say you should stop and see a doctor. My doctor also mentioned that they can't recommend using it anywhere but the crown because that's where they did all their clinical data came from, so if they said it might work on the top or at the hairline without any evidence backing it they would be lible.
