Minoxidil : Once a day or twice

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

I'm 8 months post op by Dr. Madhu and extremely happy with the results so far.

 

I'm taking Finpecia 1mg and applying Tugain 5%.

 

But I'm not able to apply Tugain during day time (Dr. Madhu prescribed twice a day) bcoz it makes hair wet n sticky. I apply 2ml 2-3 hrs before bed.

 

Is that enough to prevent further hair loss or I need to apply it twice (somehow).

 

How are you guys applying Minoxidil coz I have to use 2-3 ml so that it reaches my scalp most of it is soaked by hair.

 

really feel something is not right

 

inputs awaited.

rocker,

 

I apply my generic minoxidil by filling the dropper and then touching it to my scalp and spreading drops all around. This gets right to the scalp. Then I rub it in with my fingertips. I feel confident that it is reaching my scalp this way.

 

Best of luck!

I use the dropper to spread the hairs. I just touch it to my scalp and run it all over my head while applying mild pressure to the bulb. That way I get a fine coating all over my head and I let it sit for just a couple of seconds before rubbing it in. It seems to work just fine.
