Sam,
I wouldn't expect quitting minoxidil early to cause any issues. In fact, whatever issues it may have caused (unwanted side effects) would most likely cease after stopping its use. That said, I'm not sure why you started taking it if you intend on stopping its use so soon. Why not give it 6 months to see if it helps to thicken or regrow your hair?
Best wishes,
Bill
Hi Bill, Thank You so much for the reply. Basically i have quite decent amount of hair but de to the thinning in frontal area i cant style the hairs in desired fashion. My dermatologist prescribed me Rogaine for 4 months, Used 3 weeks continuously but since i am in marketing field i cant afford to go though any cosmetic side effect even for small amount of time. Hence i decided to quit after 3 weeks of usage. So i heard that if you quit minoxidil it causes dread shed in you. But in my case i used it only for 3 weeks and hence just wanted to know whether 3 weeks of usage can cause any potential shedding in me? Or is 3 weeks of usage can make my hair minoxidil dependent? What do you think?

Hi Everyone,
I am 23 years old and have started using minoxidil about 3 weeks ago due to the thinning in frontal area. After 3 weeks of continuous twice daily usage I noticed that I had no shedding at all. My hairs were as normal as they were before. I read about some side effects it can cause to your face and hence decided to stop using it.
So my question is that will stopping minoxidil only after 3 weeks of usage and no shed will cause dread shed for me in near future? Is 3 weeks of usage too long to suffer a dread shed after quitting. Please help.

Thank You so much for the reply. Even i havent suffered with any shedding in my 3 weeks of continuous usage. But my question is that can only 3 weeks of use can cause any potential shedding if i quit? Or can quitting after 3 weeks of use make my hairs minoxidil dependent? Really concerned. Thank You.
