Hi Guys,
I've been using rogaine foam and finasteride for about four months after stopping due to money problems (for around 2 months, I was on it for about a year before that). It seemed to be doing the trick and it wasn't getting noticeably worse. When I ran out of rogaine foam I switched to liquid minoxidil 5% (kirkland).
I have used this for almost two months now and in the past 2 weeks I have noticed my hair really thin out or it seems to have to me and it seems worse everyday. Could switching cause a shed?
A few other things which I think might have affected the shed are that I've just come back from holiday in Portugal, would the sun & sun cream I was putting on my head caused this? Whilst on holiday I also took up smoking again (am stopping again now I'm back). Would this have an effect on it?
Thanks for your advice.
