    Shedding due to changing Minoxidil treatment?

    It has only been a few months, but in my case, yes I feel that the shed was worth it since I am seeing thinning areas starting to fill in (and not just vellus hairs either). Also there is noticeable growth happening at my hairline - but please keep in mind that this is working for me. I really...

    Shedding due to changing Minoxidil treatment?

    I luckily stocked up on MinoxidilMax Dualgen 15% before the "shutdown" or whatever it is that happened. I think there will be other companies that will come along over time. The hard part is waiting to hear feedback from customers that they are legit before investing the $$ and effort in a...

    Shedding due to changing Minoxidil treatment?

    Hey Randall, I can relate as I responded the same way when I changed from Rogaine Foam 1-2X a day (for a few years) to my new regimin: (5% Rogaine Foam in the A.M.) and (15% minoxidil liquid w/ azelaic acid at night). I ended up going through almost two weeks of shedding, but kept my fingers...

    15% Minoxidil Gone - What's Next for You?

    Hey Bryan, Do you have any prediction that perhaps the standard Rogaine or Kirkland 5% Minoxidil / PG liquid compounds will work well enough to maintain any gains in regrowth I made with the 15%/azelaic acid solutions? Also I fear I might experience a shedding phase upon replacing my evening...

    15% Minoxidil Gone - What's Next for You?

    Hi Bryan, Thanks for your reply. I am confused however as it is my understanding that Azelaic Acid has been shown to be a fairly stable and potent inhibitor of DHT production in the scalp. Here is some info I found on that: Azelaic acid may be useful as a hair growth stimulant. A research...

    15% Minoxidil Gone - What's Next for You?

    I was so excited to discover the 15% minoxidil/ azelaic acid formulas from PIS and MM and have experienced significant results in just months - well beyond my expectations. I don't want to lose what I have gained! I am wondering what's next for the rest of you? Is this "Nanoxidil" stuff gonna be...

    FDA Busting ALL 15% Minoxidils? EXPIRY DATES of product?

    The most recent bottles of MinoxidilMax Dualgen-15 have an expiration date of 11/13 (November of 2013). I personally wouldn't go past a year though as the 15% compounds are known to be less stable than simpler 5% minoxidil and PPG only.

    Perfect image solutions

    This "Tom" guy REALLY blew it for everybody else. I am so thoroughly disgusted with his actions. When I discovered these products with reduced PG, azelaic acid and the higher concentration of minoxidil - it really got my hopes back up. So far in just a couple of months, I have seen improvement in my...

    Applied to much minoxidil over a long period - now freaked out!

    Hey lynx86, I wouldn't get freaked out over this at all. Keep in mind that your scalp can only absorb so much of the actual Minoxidil (based on the % formulation) during a single application. Just like a sponge can only hold so much water, once it is full, the excess water will flow out of...
