    Default Been on rogaine for 8 months, shedding thick hairs now. Concerned!

    Ok so i have been on rogaine (liquid) for 8 months now and into my 3rd week of using it i remember that i didn't shed any hair (almost). Now into my 8th month i seem to be shedding again but the difference is that the hairs i'm shedding atm. are thicker now? I have no sign of MPB or whatsoever as i caught it almost asa i noticed a major shedding during last summer. The think that is concerning me is the shedding. Why am i shedding now? The hairs are thicker now (only a few ones are thin wenn shedding) so i guess the rogaine helped me on that matter, but the fact that i'm shedding these thick hairs is concerning me

    Before using rogaine i used to shed 150+ hairs (the sink would be full)! After 3 weeks of using rogaine the shedding decreased, significantly, to around 10 hairs! Now into my 8th month i'm shedding a lot (i would assume 50-80 hairs).

    The shedding is only a problem when i'm applying rogaine to my scalp ( isee a lot of hairs onmy hands, thick ones). Without applying rogaine and rubbing my scalp washing etc. i shed less. Could it be that i'm beaing to harsh on the scalp which is causing this shedding?

    I know it's a big mouthful, but please bear over with me.

    Thx in advance
