ROGAINE BEFORE MY WEDDING????

[Rozzy252]

8O HI Everyone, its been a while since I've been here. News....I quit using the Rogaine 2% about 6 weeks ago. It wasn't doing anything after 5 months and it was getting a bit pricy. My shedding is due to hormones although all my tests have been coming back normal. I go for my scalp biopsy 3 days after my wedding.
Quick Question....when I used the Rogaine 2% I noticed an increase in shedding for the first month....I mean LOTS of lost hair. I recently was able to get Rogaine 5% ( being in Canada and all , its unavailable here), I was wondering if anyone has noticed an increase in shedding with the 5%???? when initially used??? My wedding is in 30 days...AHHH...and already its been devestating going for my trial runs for my hairdo I'm supposed to wear. I'm thinking that it might be benificial to wait until the day after my wedding to start this....but I was looking for some feedback from you guys....with the 5%.....
By the way....has anyone found Rogaine effective with Androgenetic Alopecia??????
Thank you
Rozzy

WAIT.

Get some Toppik--now--so you can get used to it before your wedding.

Hi there...thank you for you response....but I have to ask you what is toppik????

I agree. Definitely wait. If you shed on 2% you probably will with 5%.

Rozzy,

For men and women with thinning hair, Toppik is the best thing since sliced bread. For more info on this stuff (I use it and think it's amazing), go to http://www.toppik.com.
