Rogaine timeline

[Pavi]

What is the general timeline if you are a responder? When do the maximal results come? Here is how it's going for me at 4 months:

Months 1-2: heavy shedding. Less density
Month 3: hair noticeably thicker and no shedding

Start of month 4: shedding
End of month 4: hair thickening and no shedding


When do the results get to their peak value?

Great topic. The product states that it can take up to four months to see results. My question is: what does "results" mean? Does it mean vellus hairs popping up? Or cosmetically significant regrowth?

My timeline: I started using minoxidil in October, saw nothing until February, and in the past few weeks I've started to see baby hairs coming in across my hairline. Are these supposed to grow into terminal hairs with continued use? If that's the extent of what they mean by "results", then it's not really worth it.

Iv bein on it for nearly 4 years now i never had a major change but i think it does help my hair grow longer and it definitely got a little thinker than before i was using it but i dont think its stopped my hairloss complety just slowed it down i think as my hair is getting thinner and thinner as time goes on but im only on minoxidil so that's probably why.
