I am strongly considering getting on minoxidil. I know there are different strength minoxidil such as 2% and 5%. Would the 2% cause less initial shed as opposed to the higher strength versions? I would think that the lower the number, the less shedding and therefore regrowing. I am so afraid of the initial onset of shedding that takes place if I start up minoxidil. I am shedding so rapidly and diffusely that a treatment induced shed would be catastrophic. I also have alot of inflammation and am afraid that the minoxidil induced regrowth will be slow or stagnant due to this. Thanks in advance!
