I have previouly obtained decent maintenance results with Rogaine alone but was suckered into trying Revivogen. In order to test its effectiveness I decided to hold the Rogaine and use Revivogen alone for a few months to see if it is worth reordering. So far I have done nothing but shed hairs for about a month since switching topicals. I am aware via this forum that shedding for a couple of weeks can sometimes be expected but that is all that I have done for over 4 weeks and the hair loss is increasingly noticable. Does anyone have any idea how long I should continue my "experiment" before switching back to Rogaine? Thanks for your input.

I believe the majority of your shedding lies in the fact that you got off Rogaine. Revivgnon doesnt really do much from what i hear.
Extreme hair loss with Revivogen
I had actaully been off Rogaine for several months prior to starting Revivogen, so I doubt the shedding was due to stopping Rogaine after that length of time. I have since stopped Revivogen and returned to Rogaine- since then the dramatic hair loss has stopped completely. Hopefully within a few months the "damage" will be repaired at least to the starting point before using Revivogen. I understand that my results were not typical and can only assume that I might have been allergic to one of the ingredients in the formulation. For whatever reason, I will never consider Revivogen again.

Any time you switch topicals you risk a shed. Sheds are not evidence that the topical isn't working. One month sheds are common. You have to give a new regimen six months before you know whether it's working.
That said, there is much more evidence that in favor of minoxidil than Revivogen.
