where to buy minoxidil for women in CANADA?

[MD07]

Hi,

I used to buy a brand of minoxidil in Europe but cannot find find the same since I moved to Canada.

It seems that Rogaine for Women is only sold in the US.
If I would buy it from a US website, not only would it be more expensive, but I would have a risk that customs give me extra taxes to pay, or worse, decide to keep it..
(This happenned to me recently: I had to pay an extra $15 :-x ).

From what I understand, the following minoxidil brands are available in Canada, but I read that they are all for men only!? :shock:
Apo-Gain
Gen-Minoxidil
Minoxigaine
Rogaine

Could anyone guide me on this issue?
What kind of minoxidil do Canadian women use and where do they buy it?

Thanks in advance,
MD07

I am a female and live in Toronto and used the Shoppers Drug Mart brand for 2 months until recently. I bought a few boxes of Rogaine 2% for women and 5% for men on Ebay for dirt cheap. I got a 4 months supply for $40 CND without any problems at customs. Honestly, there isn't any difference between the men's and women's solution so don 't worry too much about that.
