    Today I Quit Rogaine. I Will Write About The Full Journey.

    So I had my appointment today. The hairs that have been growing back have been miniaturised. I have just started on finesteride and miloxodil tablets. Took my first one tonight. I was also quoted for a hair transplant that will require 1800 grafts and set me back 15000. I am thinking of...

    Hi all, I'm booked in with the tricologist tomorrow. I will update you all soon. I hope she will tell me there is lots of regrowth that I can't quite see, but that's me being hopeful. My hair is still very thin. In sunlight I can see through it. But in normal light it looks pretty ok...

    Today I Quit Rogaine. I Will Write About The Full Journey.

    I stopped using on one side for a month or so. Then I went down to one day just on once side for a few weeks. Then quit. So I have completely quit for 6 months. The hair loss was bad when I was on it. I was on for 8 months, no major regrowth, lots of shedding. It's the worst it has been. I...

    I know no one probably cares. But I am going to post this part as I feel like it is a part of the journey. I am severerely depressed due to the hair loss I have experienced after quitting. I feel like Miloxodil ruined my hair. My middle part is balding. My right temple hair is gone. It all looks...

    Can Rogaine worsen hairloss?

    Yes. I used it on my temples. I was a Norwood 1. Now one temple is Norwood 2.5. I used 5% foam for 7-8 months. I just shed. Minimal regrowth. It's been 6 months since I quit entirely. My temples are ruined. I still hold hope as there is stubble, but I think they are just peach fuzz hairs.

    Hey. How is it all going? Did you end up with a bald patch where there wants really one before my right temple is so thin. I think I see little fine hairs growing in the area now. But I worry that they are just peach fuzz. I am not sure. Does finasteride grow back hair at all?

    It will when you quit. You fall below base level. Which is what I am talking about. Also it's been proven that some people shed without getting any gains. It only fully works on 25% of the population. So if you have had a good experience then great. But not everyone has.

    Well firstly... rude and completely unhelpful. I quit because I could afford to. I still have an ok amount of hair. However I have two noticeable bald patches on my temples which are 100 percent caused my Rogaine, as they did not look like that before. Anyways. Moving on from non-constructive...

    Br1- suposidly it effects your whole hair. Not just where you use it. Also it could be male pattern baldness progressing but if so, it is been very rapid. Aldrich- Are you also on finasteride? I feel like mine has just gotten worse. I am in panic mode. Did you hit this point? If so when? 9 months would be Feb too...

    It has been a long time since u posted. I am 5 months into fully quitting. My hair is not great. My temples and hair line have thinned. I have a big bald patch on my right temple with some fine hair over it. I can cover it with styling and Topic. It is very devistating. I don't know if I should...

    I only had very minimal thinning at my temples when I got on Miloxodil. It is much worse since using it. My hair is much thinner all over and my temples are even thinner. Coming up to 3 months in a week and a bit. I'm hoping it will get better. My head is per inanely itchy! Sorry to hear...

    Nope. I don't want to go on finasteride considering Miloxodil was such a disaster. I'm going to try and ride this out. Thing is I never really needed rogaine in hind site. I am hoping my hair will bounce back. What happened to your hair? Did it get that bad?

    2 months 7 days in. Major thinning all over. Bald patches starting to develope all around the top of my head. Hair is very thin. I am not noticing an increase in the shed, but must be happening when I'm asleep or something.

    I have completely stopped. My hair has thinned all over and is quite thin at temples. I am worried as I know it's only meant to get worse. And it's already started to show. I am at a point where I am ok with it and can cover it.

    It has just occurred to me. In the 8 months that I have been using Miloxodil I have only gone through one and a half 60g bottles. I am wondering if anyone knows if this will effect my quitting?
