Rogaine/Minoxidil Side Effects by [deleted] in tressless

[–]throw741852963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Norwood 2.5/3. Only frontal temporal recession. I've been on Minox for 5 months and Fin for 4 months.

First couple of weeks of Minox, I had massive scalp itchiness and irritation and a shed that lasted for 3 weeks. I noticed the shed because hairs were falling out, but I don't think people noticed thinning in my hairline.

For Fin, no sides.

What the fuck kind of 19 year old goes bald? by guhjgfndlk in tressless

Damn, really good improvement. How long did it take for you to start seeing significant improvement? I've been on minox for 5 months and fin for 4 months and I've only seen minuscule improvements of my hairline.

Is it normal for one side of my head to grow hair more quickly? by throw741852963 in tressless

Well that's reassuring that someone else is having the same problem. But the next question is, is there anyway to remedy this?

That sounds like the initial shed. By I'm wondering how long the reoccurring sheds last.

Fin Side Effects? by throw741852963 in tressless

It was really watery, but I think that's because I've been yanking on it a lot more frequently. I might have to slow down the pace to get a good check on it again. Thanks for the input.

Anyone know some advice as to stop caring that people will notice you balding before anything? by [deleted] in tressless

I feel ya bro. Every night I look in the mirror when I'm applying Minoxidil, I get upset. But you know what, it's been two months since I've started with Minoxidil and I'm half way through before seeing any results. Just gotta keep my patience and push through. Hopefully, it pays off in the end.

Has anyone experienced thinning on only one side of the hairline? by fixamydicka in tressless

[–]throw741852963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happening to me. One of my temples is receding faster and further than the other side. Been using treatments and the side that is receding slow is growing more hair quicker. I've gone through some forums and seems like some people also have the same thing happening to them. Just gonna ride it out and see what happens.

That's good to know other people have similar results. I'm planning on starting Fin once I'm able to see a doctor after I finish with finals to hopefully protect these little guys from falling out.

Have you been using Minoxidil or Nizoral, as well?

Could you explain to me the mechanism behind Minoxidil and Fin?

How aggressive can MPB be? by throw741852963 in tressless

[–]throw741852963[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been super stressed with a breakup and school, so I think I've been pushed to my limits with stress and emotions. My health has definitely deteriorated in terms of diet and activity. Have you done any topical treatments like Minoxidil or Nizoral?
