I'm wondering if Rogaine is making me bald faster. I've been on it for a decade now and can't say whether it helped or not. So I got tired of the greasy hair a few years ago and cut back from twice a day to once a day. And then I didn't even use it some days, so I was using it an average of about three or four days a week, once a day.
And two and a half weeks ago I started using it almost everyday, once a day. And I am noticing terrifying shedding. 30 or or 40 hairs a day - which isn't much compared to how much some people lose, but with as little hair as I have, this is producing noticeable thinning. So much so that if this goes on for a few more weeks (say 4 to 8), I might consider shaving my head.
Anyone had similar experiences? Do you guys think I should stay on Rogaine, or finally bid it adieu after a decade? Would going off it make it even worse because of Rogaine dependence?
