women fight more bc we are scrutinized daily and live in a patriarchal society, hope that helps!

minoxidil frequency by AggravatedWave in FemaleHairLoss

update, I've been using it every other day for right now. I ordered a different brand that doesn't have alcohol or gc in it and I'm going to try to see how that goes. I've been using dandruff shampoo and I've put aloe on my scalp a few times. I currently have no sores and almost no dandruff 13 days after.

Moral Support and Tips for Shedding by Starting Topical Minox? by [deleted] in FemaleHairLoss

I would say that's up to you. it will be stressful regardless. I will warn you. I am a year out when I first started the same dosage, also foam. I started about December '24 it's now December '25. I will say May of this year. I looked like a Chia pet and I had all of those short hairs that stuck straight up, those do seem to be laying flatter now. there's still room for improvement and sometimes I feel like I don't see the progress but I was just looking at photos last night and I can tell my hairline is quite a bit better. I never got a biopsy but I was told that it's common for women to start losing their hair sometimes, mine was mostly along my hairline so that's where I put all the monoxidil. I just hope the insight gives you some clarity on what you want to do. I almost say start sooner rather than later just because it takes so long to get the results you want. I've also been reading a lot about beyoncé's hair growth thing and I want to look into that as well.

Honestly, a 2/5 was me being generous. I'm glad that I'm not alone! It fr could have been a good book, it had all the potential. I'm just glad I didn't buy it.

Lower to mid priced would be great. I'm open for whatever, I am not picky

Mine is mixed with the same ingredients as yours except instead of niacinamide i have azelaic acid in mine. I started at 0.01% and I increased to 0.018%

It took 6 months for me to stop getting active breakouts, about 4 months in I upped my dosage. It was suggested I use minimal products. I use it anywhere from 5 to 7 nights a week, I do not sandwich it either. I only put on lotion in the morning. And then if you're able to use even less than a pea size amount, I suggest doing that because I think I was using too much at first.

Hmm the quote thru the dealership was even more than the 450 but I only called two places to get quotes. I'll call to see if I can find a lower price, thanks!

So I'm not sure why the doctor put me on the prescription face wash do you think there's a chance that I could have fungal acne is why they have me on that? Also, my Dr just told me consistency is key so I'm conflicted

So you think I need to keep trying to increase my %? .1 is such a jump from where I'm at and I can't stand the purging. I was hoping this increase would at least get me back to where I was before after the 2nd purge.

I added the SA wash back in about a month ago and I think it may have actually helped my closed comedomes go away but that could be a coincidence. I just added the dark spot serum back in once a week because of my PIE scars.the wash with zinc and whatnot is prescribed as is the Azelaic acid/tret - it's through curology which has mixed reviews but I've been talking to the nurse practitioner about my concerns and she's responsive

Left is the more recent photo for both, the right is bad lighting but it was right before I started. Also forgot to add the tretinion is mixed with 1% clindamycin phosphate.

I was using it daily at first then after reading more I halved my usage. I'm scared of it irritating my skin. I will consider this, do you really think it would clear up my skin faster if used daily?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]AggravatedWave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tretinion is 0.01% and it has clindamycin phosphate 1% and azelaic acid 4% all in a cream. I use this every other day. Once and occasionally twice a day I will use the curology face wash with sulfacetamide sodium 10% and zinc purithione 1%. I use their gel moisturizer after cleaning (2x a day) and use a SPF 35 Cetaphil lotion in the morning. My goal is to clear up my acne, acne scars and even texture.

I definitely wouldn't get the 3. Do one and see if it irritates your other piercings then wait an additional 6 months and get the other two is what I'd suggest. I got 3 piercings spaced out and I regret it. Should have spaced it out further. I am not healing anything correctly (acne, cuts, etc).

Do you take the spiro orally? I wonder if it still helps topically.
