How Consistent Are You With Minoxidil?

[Pavi]

im just curious... I have been on it 8 months (240 days) and I have applied it 480 times in a row. I think my diligence is a large reason for my success and I think a lot of people skip applications regularly. Just list below how consistent you have been and how long you have used it and how well it has worked. Thanks guys

Been on it since mid March, so 3 months. I believe there was 1 day I missed a morning application due to travel, but apart from that, twice every day without exception. I can't tell yet if it's doing anything.

Done it for twenty-three years daily, twice, never skipped a dose; first, 2%, then 5% for a good fifteen years.
It did not save me from two hair transplants.
@Pavi, you should know that less than 50% of balding people benefit from 5% minoxidil. This is a hard fact. The remaining 55% might have it applied by nurses three times a day: they would still see no recovery.

Well nothing will keep your hair for 23 years.... That would be called a cure. I am seeing massive benefits and I just wondered if it was because I was so consistent with it.

Definitely.

I used to be wishy washy before, 1x a day, sometimes skip a few days. Since i've gone to 2x daily consistently, it's made my density go up, new hairs appear.

Caveat: But nothing that could functionally be a "cure". No Norwood-1 thick lusciousness which we all want.
