I am using minoxidil for 7 months on my temples only.
The first 5 months i used it 1x a day and since month 5, 2x day.

My temples have sheded during this period and i have lost some hair in the temple area because of minoxidil.

Do you guys know if this is a good sign or should i quit usiing minoxidil on my temples? I have not seen any regrowth yet so i am worried...

It is like it is only getting worse :s

Btw i am also using finasteride for the past 7 months.

ADVICES ARE VERY WELCOME! :)

Thanks guys

its the dead shed just keep faith minoxidil has given me great results on the area just north of my temples, the most common place for balding to begin. ive made a great recovery with it. remember the shed is prob just the hair cycle restarting itself and thicker hairs should follow. and repeat every 6 weeks i think. also remember twice a day is what is reccomended so stick with ur current regime every 12 hours!!

Hi jmgramke !

Thanks for your post.

It kinda makes me feel better now. :)

I'll keep with the minoxidil untill the 12 month mark for sure!

I'm just so worried it 'll get worse over time :(

When have you started to see "good results" with minoxidil ?

Thanks !!
