Reduce minoxidil?

[Weepy]

I have noticed no regrowth on my head, but I am definitely growing hairs on my forehead. They are vellous, but some are terminal. It is alarming.

Normally, I apply minoxidil right after I shower. for night applciation, I wet my head, let it dry for about 15 minutes or so, and then apply.

I am thinking of reducing the frequency of application of minoxidil to once; either at the wet a.m. application, or waiting to apply to a dry scalp at night.

Has anyone else had this forehead hair growth?

I have. And I am not through my first month yet.

Do not alter your routine. You are obviously responding.

I went through a tremendous one week shed due to minoxidil. Although I notice a reduced overal density, I can trace new growth especially in the temple area.

Keep it steady.

Thanks man. The thing is, these hairs are extending to about an inch above my eye brow. They are not yet noticable, unless you look directly at me. I plucked a few of the more noticeable ones. It's a cro magnon look. :freaked: The best course will probably stay with it as usual.

Good advice about staying steady, too. I'm putting the pieces together a little better today.
