Hi guys,

I am a nw3 and used 3% minoxidil for 6 months along with Finpecia and saw very good results on temples, it almost filled entirely although not very thick but all my temple area was filled with newly grown hairs. it made a real different visually.

Then for past 2months or so I switched to 5% minoxidil to see even better results but to no avail! during this time i saw massive shed and almost lost all my previously grown hair on my temples and lost even more ground in my hairline. now my hairline is very thin in front and I am starting to freak out since its getting worse everyday.


now what should I do? switch back to 3% or continue 5% Min?


Your opinion on what should I do next is highly appreciated.

Where did you get this "3%" topical minoxidil?

thank you for your response, it is a generic solution from a local pharmacy its made by that pharmacy. i bought 5% solution from there also.


but i am seeing massive shed from 5% now my hairline is almost ruined!


some say initial shed is a good thing i wonder if i should continue or go back to 3%?
