I was applying 1.5 ml twice a day for about a year, .5 ml in the back, and 1 ml in the front half (because I assumed that the back might need a little less to get good results).
For the past 5 months I was under a ton of stress, so I've lost a lot, not back to square one, but halfway there.
Last week I started applying 2 ml to the entire top thinking it might help, however my hair is less than half an inch long, so the scalp is DRENCHED in the stuff.
I'm now reading that 1 ml twice a day, or 2 ml once a day should be plenty. Along with the fact that Minoxidil probably won't help stress related hair loss (but it might help speed up the time it takes to grow back, like hair transplants). My friend who had a receding hair line only uses .5 ml in the front once daily, missing days here and there, and he's had good results and stability.
Should I wean down to 1 ml for the whole top? And how should I go about doing it, or does it probably not matter if I just cut the dose in half right away.
Also, applying it to a damp scalp in the morning helped significantly with the greasiness (I apply to dry at night), now I'm reading it may enhance absorption 2-5 times, so perhaps I'll try just having my scalp damp twice a day and apply 1ml.
