Rogaine Foam - 22 Male Aus Need some help with useage

[articulix]

Hello Everybody,

I am currently using the minoxidil Foam from Rogaine and am going through it like no tomorrrow. At the moment I am using it on my frontal receding hairline my crown (as the bottle states only use) and throug the middle of my hair. Obviously I should be using more then 1/2 a lid since im applying it to basically the whole top of my head but how much should i be using.

Im applying 1/2 to back 1/2 to front and 1/2 to middle is this ok applying twice daily.

Also what else can I do or take to improve my hair? Ive read throug the forums read lots of scientific names but just want to know is there a capsule that I should also be taking?

Thankyou.

3 cap fulls a day I would say is way too much. I also am thin all over the scalp, I use a little less than a cap full, maybe a little over 3/4ths. If you arent comfortable with that maybe you can buy a bottle of spectral dnc and use a few sprays mid day. Most of us here at the forums use a pretty strong regimen called the big 3, which is rogaine, nizoral shampoo, and finasteride (propecia, proscar, fincar). Nizoral you can get at just about any average grocery store and its an anti dandruff shampoo which contains an ingredient called ketoconazole which has been said to thicken and in some cases help regrow hair. Finasteride is probably the strongest of the three which blocks DHT and promotes hair growth and at the very least will help you to maintain what you have. To get Finasteride ask your doctor for a script, if you dont want to go that route you can buy from the internet overseas without a script, it is illegal though but not really enforced. Hope that helps.
