Minoxidil success

[Pavi]

I just want everyone to know that you CAN have success with minoxidil only.
I have been using it for 8 months now, twice a day every day I have NOT MISSED A SINGLE APPLICATION; I think that is the main problem with min, people are not absolutely strict with it. In only 8 months I have reversed my hair loss an entire year. I have gone from a NW3v to a NW2. Look at my old posts for my
Story. Have a good day!

Minoxidil is like scooping buckets of water out of a sinking ship. In the end, if you have no strong anti androgen base, you will be bald.

Give it 2'years and watch all those gains disappear.

I simply disagree. Plenty of CLINICAL evidence shows people maintaining on minoxidil alone for 5+ years

I have only minoxidil 5% in my regime...and it helped a lot. I guess i stretched my hair life 3 years more after starting it. Though it has not stopped thinning but sure it is pushing slowly dying hairs roots to bloom. Planning on adding topical anti androgen either CB or Fluridil.

Prime example of minoxidil working long term. I don't know your hairloss story but 3
Years above baseline without touching an anti androgen is huge. Especially with all the potential treatments coming out in the 2018-2020 range

Yeah it really helped. I own my hairs to it. I am a diffuse thinner...so thinning is all over the scalp. Minoxidil is doing its job but so do male pattern baldness although slowly. I never included antiandrogen in my regime because i was happy what minoxidil was doing and as i am a diffuse thinner so a good shampoo helped in giving fuller look. But i can see the thinning now so i am going to take the route of topical anti androgen.

Minoxidil with dermaroller

Hello Everyone,

Minoxidil is very effective in case of hair loss. But here i want to add on something

If we will use minoxidil with derma rollers it gives outstanding results

Minoxidil is a product which is already popular for stopping hair loss and encourage hair growth. You can apply it on scalp regularly. But if minoxidil using with derma roller it will give more effective results. Derma roller increases absorption of any product applied on scalp because it enlarge the pores by puncturing needles on skin.
We suggest you to apply minoxidil whenever you are using derma roller, You can get better results, absorption rate will defiantly increases by 10 times.

I disagree. Minoxidil is such a small molecule that it totally penetrates the skin. You don't need to derma roll to increase absorption because minoxidil goes into the skin 100% as is

Yeah i have been compliant...but some times you can't help but miss. Though i never been off it for more then a week. I applied once at night. Can't apply in the morning because i have to go to office and as my hair is diffuse thinning...the alcohal or foam sticks my hair in all weird shape.

One time applications that are not religiously consistent have maintained your hair for 3 years and yet people question the long term maintenance of minoxidil

Just to add i don't use 1 ml only...i apply like 3-4 ml in a go to cover much of the scalp :firing:

Minoxidil did nothing good for me. It "stopped" my hair loss for about a year and then it went downhill.

So is stopping your hair loss for a year not a good thing?

It doesn't make sense that it would stop his hair loss for a year and then go to ****. We don't know how compliant he was or how many times a day he was using it; people aren't the best with keeping up the min 2 times a day
