minoxidil after a year

hopewas · Nov 2, 2003

i've heard some people here talk about how dr lee said that after 1 year of using minoxidil twice a day that it's ok to just apply it once a day after using it a full year.. do you guys follow this..or do you all continue to apply it twice a day after one year? if so..do you see any difference? it's been over a year since i've used minoxidil and applying it only once a day would be a lot less hassle

I have heard a few people mention they do this as well. Hey try it, why not? The risk seems minimal if you have all the regrow you want. You could always bump it back up.

EDIT:

It seems that applying minoxidil after a shower provides the best absorbtion, so whenever you do that, I would go with the one app of minoxidil.

i think i'll try it.. i haven't seen any improvements since after a year. i'll start using it once a day..it'll be more convenient. if worse comes to worse, i can always start using it twice a day again. but using it once a day will be nice. i'll be a lot more free. applying it at night before i sleep isn't a problem as opposed to putting it on in the morning and waiting that long while for it too absorb

I will no doubt follow your posts about this Hopewas, this is what I plan on doing once my regrowth stops. So far things are great but twice a day apps will suck after awhile. With that I plan on going down on doses of finasteride once regrowth stops. Keeping this sh*t as simple, and cheap as possible is key in the long run.

Good luck! I really hope it works.
