    How Do I Test To See If My Minoxidil Is Legit?

    I recently bought dual-gen 15 which claims to have a 15% minoxidil concentration. Does anyone know of a way where I could test to see if the minoxidil concentration I have is the legit 15% that the bottle claims? I suspect I've been scammed and it may be 5%

    Considering Starting Minoxidil Again, But Have Some Questions

    So I’ve been using minoxidil off and on for the past 2 years and haven’t had much success with it. I’ve quit min for various reasons, mostly money and lack of results. I initially thought I wasn’t having results because I was using min once a day. The longest I’ve been on min was maybe 5...

    Would Minoxidill Dependent Hair Be Permanently Depend On It?

    Just something I've been thinking about. If you were using minoxidill and then stopped, then try new treatment that would potentially regrow hair, would the hair dependent on minoxidill be permanently gone and dependent on just that for good?

    Am I Starting To Show Results Or Is It My Imagination?

    I posted a couple pics a little while ago, and just took a new one… Even though I still feel like I have a ways to go before I am where I want, does it look like I might be slightly thickening up? I can't tell if it's just my imagination, since I still feel unhappy with my hair. I just finished...
