This is just my opinion, so be kind with your responses.
Just out of curiousity, why do people still rely on minoxidil for hair growth beyond just using it for a few weeks? I'm not completely familiar with this drug, but doesn't your hair become dependent upon it for growth?
So, if a hair loss cure ever came out that target the gene, the receptor, or the whole process, people on minoxidil would be totally screwed until a medicine came out that would allow for hair growth in the absence of minoxidil.
I guess that's why I'm so reluctant to use it.
Of course, what I just said probably makes no sense.
