I have been on 5% rogaine foam for about a year, regular minox before that. About 3 months ago, I started using Dr. Lee's 5% minoxidil + .025 retin-a solution for the nighttime application.

Aroud this same time, I noticed that I must be shedding. I say must be because I never noticed any hair falling out, just that I was thinning in the crown again.

Is retin-a known to caused increased initial shedding?
