Guys, I am seriously considering this, but could you please answer a few questions to help me decide please.
1. Does minoxidil even slow down hair loss, or just promote the growth of new smaller fuzzy hairs?
I have had 0 new growth so perhaps I have always been a non responder and am wasting my time!?
2. Are there any other ways to tell if it's actually slowed down the loss at all? to check whether I am a non-responder.
I have some sides, such as facial hair growth in weird places, and some bloating, which is why I want to end this thing. Guess i can have sides without any positive effect...
3. If it turns out that it did slow it down a bit, how long till I lose the hairs it had saved after I stop using it?
4. If I start noticing a big shed, can I start taking it again and immediately end the shed, or is it too late!?
So yes, if the shed is too large, im considering going back on and perhaps ignoring the sides.. I just really don't think its helping me, my hair has still been slowly thinning in the past 18 months I used it! If I have always been a non responder then surely there will be no shed.
Thanks

Another perhaps important piece of information I forgot. I had no initial shed when I started using it, perhaps that's a sign that I am a non responder.
