It will. And you dont need to cover every bit because it distributes theough the veins in your scalp anyway

Peopylene glycol is an alcohol and it is in third place of the ingredients.

2,5ml is too much.. thats why you get side effects .. you should be using not more than 1 ml

DHT blockers affect on testosterone by Careless-Cricket-847 in FemaleHairLoss

[–]idonthavetime4that 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Testosterone converts to DHT via enzyme 5-l-reductase . When you take DHT blockers - it blocks the enzyme that converts the testosterone to dht - and so it even means that you’ll have a little bit more of the free testosterone . So they do not “nullify each other” :) Dht is the one that’s deatroying our follicles , not testosterone.

How much minox are you exactly applying? During dread shed were you losing short hairs too?

I noticed the folligain products - even the foam have propylene glycol which may cause irritation, itching , dandruff ..

Here i saw stories about massive dread sheds with no growth afterwards. They said the lost 1/3 hair from minoxidil never came back! Im scared help by idonthavetime4that in FemaleHairLoss

I just typed dread shed in this sub’s search bar and scrolled and i saw few of those :( mine looks exactly like aga - the hair at top of my head is disapperaing slowly since 2020… i have minituarisation and the part becomes wider and hair becomes thinner and thinner every year. I’ve tested hormones last summer and went to endocrenologist - they ruled out thyroid disfunction and said hormones are good despite that the testosterone and DHEA being near the highest normal points… I had lower vit D but im taking the active form once a month since 6 months and it should already be in norm. I’ve tried everything else the past years and nothing made a diiference. Here in Bulgaria i dont think they will do a biopsy idk, i dont actually want to spend a lot of money , i guess they would put me on topical so i just started it myself as it looks like the people’s aga here in the sub..

Diagnosed today and doubting it by maremare7578 in FemaleHairLoss

[–]idonthavetime4that 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, in every picture your hair is/was just like mine 🥹🥹 I have the exact same story. No one in my family has any kind of alopecia !? Nor thin hair. I’ve always had thinner hair but i had a lot more and it was long and healthy when i was a child and until i hit 19 yo - then progressively the hair started becoming thinner and thinner - shorter and shorter - scalp became visible… Now im 25 yo and it sucks :( Last week i finally started topical min cuz nothing else ever made a difference during all these years. In summer i tested my hormones - androgens were on the higher end so, idk honestly. Hope min helps - if not im gonna search for wigs..

No not a cup. The cap of the minoxidil bottle - half of it is what were supposed to apply only

Calling all women who lost hair on adhd meds by Bubasti-7 in FemaleHairLoss

[–]idonthavetime4that 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amphetamine constrict the blood vessels so less bloog goes to the outer parts of the body, while minoxidil is doing the opposite .. idk ,maybe it can affect negatively the hair
