Please shoot me!

You are aware that 1ml per application is that Rogane recommend, right?
I said that if you miss application just continue with 1ml (per application - common sense) which is exactly what they recommend which is pretty much the same stuff you copied and pasted from Rogaine website/source.

This conversation is now over.

Rogaine's directions are that people use it twice per day, at 1mg per application. 1mg+1mg= ... wait for it... 2mg!!

Here is your exact quote from this thread.

Once a day is totally fine. You don't need to use 2ml of 5% minoxidil. No matter how much you apply, 5% minoxidil is 5% minoxidil.

So, you are saying that people need exactly HALF of what Rogaine recommends. And when questioned about this, you say that your evidence is that it was talked about "many-many times before". OK...

It is true that some doctors like Dr. Bernstein say that it can be taken once a day. But then he also says
  • When using minoxidil once a day, use at least double the recommended dose
ANd of course, that means 2mg per day, at least. Not 1mg.

It's fine that you disagree with both Rogaine and some prominent doctors. But then you shouldn't be dismissive and say "you haven't been reading the forums" when your point of view is questioned. Because what you're saying is in no way proven fact, and it's very different from what the company itself recommends. If you understand that 1+1=2, then you must get this.

Are you for real, or just trolling?

Yes, 1mg per application. 2 applications per day. This = 2mg per day.

You are saying that one application of 1mg per day is sufficient.

So, what you are saying is completely different from what Rogaine is saying.

Is English not your first language, or is this an IQ problem?

Many sources report that either 1x or 2x per day are OK. The question is whether or not 1mg in total per day is sufficient. rcom is insisting that the amount doesn't matter at all and 1mg = 2mg per day, and "many-many" people of course know this as fact, but this is not the common understanding of how to use the drug. Using once per day should be OK, but it's recommended that in this case the normal 1mg dose is increased.
