So I've only been using rogaine for about 3 weeks but just tonight I noticed I am shedding quite a bit of hairs .

its hard to not to feel like rogaine is killing my hairs

if I stop using rogaine will the shedding stop?

I understand and shedding is part of it but my hair grows very slow so basically I have to deal with 4 months of terrible hair before regrow the?

yes if you stop now you will only grow your normal hair and your efforts wont pay off; at this point I'd keep going. Many people buzz it to make it less noticeable.

Keep going . i also got worried when I was about the same time on rogaine. I felt like the thing got rid of the hair where I applied it. But now I'm reaching the 2 months mark and my temples are filling in! The thing seems to work. Just give it time and keep applying it.

* I apply it to my temples only.

If you stop now you will recover to your normal level at best. If you carry on you have some real potential to regrow some hair. You decide.
