I would like to know this too. I am on week 9 of my 5% Rogaine foam usage and am yet to encounter any kind of reasonable shed. But, I do see a slight increase in thinning on the crown which is where I primarily apply it.
Thanks talmoode!
Bump.
Quick question. I do notice increased thinning on the crown after about 1 month and 10 days of Rogaine 5% use. Has anyone experienced this? I don't have a shed or clumps of hair falling out but my hair does seem to have thinned quite a bit. I really hope it's Rogaine...
Hello, as the title says, I have been applying Rogaine foam twice daily since the last month and have yet to encounter the famous shed. Does this mean that I might not be a good responder to minoxidil? I know that it's not supposed to give any results until 4 months in but looking at a lot of...
I find the price for Rogain acceptable at $55 for 3 months. If Tugain's cheaper which I hope it is, then I don't see a harm in trying it out although I am really wary of Indian versions of popular drugs. I tried going on Finpecia (Indian propecia) and it didn't work too well for me..my hair...
Wow Nikhil, bohat sahi!
Where did you get minoxidil from? I had to order Rogaine online over ebay; is there a generic version available in the Indian market? My hair loss at the crown is very similar to how your's was before you moved to big 3. I have started using Rogaine foam twice a day since...
Just an update after a long while. I just let my hair be for the last year and didn't use any meds or supplements. I am convinced that I have thinned on my hairline and more notably on the crown. I have started using Rogaine since a week so lets see how it goes. I haven't had any shed yet but...
I shampoo every day otherwise my hair becomes greasy and starts appearing 'fine'. 5-10 strands every wash and a few while combing or styling :)
But if I shampoo after say, 2-3 days.. I have counted upto 20!!
Thank you everyone for your encouraging comments. My friends have been fed up of my obsession with my hair. They say it has been the same for over 5 years now however, I do think that I have lost some near the widow's peak. I remember that it used to be fairly prominent . Also, I have started...
Thanks for the inputs gentlemen! Some more recent pics.. Please let me know your thoughts :-)
I haven't moved on to the big 3 yet, I know its never late to start but these products aren't really easily available where i am at, but I am working on it.
The last pic was taken when...
Thanks bro! I was concerned about the crown area because it seems to show unusual amount of scalp at times,usually when I have not combed or washed, like early mornings after waking up or after wearing a motorcycle helmet. I have also started keeping my hair short (cuz it just doesn't grow! lol)...
Hey!
I am 23, have been thinning on the top and particularly on the crown since I was 18. I don't usually come across as bald but upon looking closely, people do get tend to get hints :(
I am posting some pics along this thread to get your opinion on my situation, I welcome any tips...
