Senior Member gillenator Posted September 15, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 15, 2022 Perhaps a reduced dosage would help.

It's easier for me to generally adhere to. I used topical Minoxodil when younger but the 2x a day application and greasy cheap versions (i was a broke teen lol). So i did give it up alongside possibly unrealistic expectations. Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

My dermatologist said it's 0 difference because it builds up in the blood as well, after some time it will have same amount as oral version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
