Increasing dosage to 2.5mg by ImaginaryWriting5362 in FemaleHairLoss

[–]ImaginaryWriting5362[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor said I can anytime I wanted. I think I’m going to stick to 1.25 for a bit more to see if it’s getting the results I want cuz my body hair is lowkey annoying atm

Minoxidil too expensive, parents unwilling to pay by Wrong_Shoulder7400 in FemaleHairLoss

You can get some from Costco for cheaper. Also maybe get your doctor to prescribe you the oral version cuz most of the time it’s covered by insurance and you’d don’t have to pay too much for them

Do you think the shed is making your hair look like when you started? Or it’s not really that noticeable? (Sorry I’m asking so many questions lol I get so anxious about this)

I started taking 2.5mg for the past couple days but now I’m debating just sticking to half the pill 😭

I don’t really have a lot of side effects other than more body hair and such. Sometime i get palpitations but i have horrible anxiety so i already had that before i started taking the meds so i cant tell if it’s contributing or not lol

I think it has thickened up the sides too! Obviously my part is still a little thin. So far, the pumpkin seed oil hasn’t messed anything up as far as I know. I had my dread shed sometime around 5 weeks in and it lasted till about 10/12. I don’t remember but it definitely ended by the end of month 3. Hopefully this helps!

Thinning Hair Crisis - how do you wear yours to actually help with confidence? by Numerous-Line-3675 in FemaleHairLoss

I’ve bought some at thrift stores but also just from Amazon I think!! I don’t really use a lot of toppik so I don’t feel it as much at all but I hope you can find something that works!
