hi everyone,

I'm getting a procedure done in a little over two weeks, and i had heard that using minoxidil for 2-3 weeks before a procedure is good to reduce shockloss and post-surgery shedding. My question is that if i start today and take it for about two weeks prior to my procedure, will the period that i have to stop using it (4 days before + 8 days after=12 days total) cause me to loose any hairs permanently? thanks for any input you can give.

Read the packaging/labels/papers that come with your Rogaine... Rogaine can cause some temporary shedding in some people (according to the packaging) this is normal, and a sign that Rogaine is working. Ask your Doctor what you should do.

IMO, twelve days will probably be okay as long as you resume it again when it is safe. Glad to see you are taking some extra precautionary measures and best wishes on your results man! :wink:
