Stopping Rogaine

[Sanjeev]

I have been rogaine/propecia for last 2 months now. Taking propecia is easy. So I am ok with taking it as long as I can. But I hate applying rogaine every night and morning. THe main problem is applying it for my whole life. But I am afraid if I stop it I will have more hair loss.

 

So please advise if I should stop applying rogaine or not

Sanjeev,

 

Stopping any hair loss medication will result in a loss of benefits. however, if you have only been taking Rogaine 2 months you might have not yet experienced any.

 

Consider your choice carefully before making a decision.

 

Personally, I am not a huge fan of the Rogaine regime so I don't use it anymore. Though with the new foam - it is probably less messy.

Yep.........this is exactly why I never used rogaine for any length of time. Very messy regimen.

 

I'm guessing at 2 months you probably don't have much, if any, benefit from rogaine yet anyway and likely won't notice anything if you stop. You never know..........totally your call.

 

If simply can't stand the regimen and it's only been 2 months, to me that would be a good indicator that it isn't something I will be doing for life !

Me too

 

Never used it because it was a pain in the ass while using concealer too. Glad I never used it too.

 

2 months should make that big of a difference
