Shedding Thick Hairs from Rogaine in two weeks

[begstealborrow]

Hi all,

I just started Rogaine about two weeks ago - 5% foam.

I have noticed that I am shedding a bit, lots of fine hairs. However, in amongst all that are a noticeable amount of thicker hairs, with white bulbs on the end.

Is this a worry? I understand the point of a shed, but should it just be the finer hairs that are dying?

I started 3 weeks ago too and I notice that I'm shedding(I think) but reading from other minoxidil users that it's a sign that the medicine is working as new hairs are coming back to life...

It's quite normal mate. Don't stress about it at all. I shedded for almost 2 months and then between the 3 to 4 month mark I had nothing but re-growth
