Minoxidil and Hair Loss Blog

If you have never tried Rogaine and are considering using it, there are a few key things you should know that will help you understand if Rogaine is right for you. First of all, Rogaine (Minoxidil) is designed to be used on the top of the scalp. It is not designed to grow hair on other parts of the body (you would be surprised how many questions we get about this). Rogaine is designed to be used by people who are suffering from some kind of pattern baldness. This means that if you have a history of hair loss in your family (mother OR father’s side) then Rogaine MAY help you slow your hair loss, stop it, or in some cases grow hair back. The earlier you start using Rogaine, the better. Studies have shown that the earlier you treat pattern baldness, the better.

To recap, Rogaine is for you if:

• Have a history of hair loss in your family
• You want to treat hair loss on the top of your scalp (general thinning of hair)

Most importantly, Rogaine will not work for everyone, even if you meet the above criteria. Rogaine has been shown to work for a little over 40% of the people who use it. The ONLY way you will find out if it works for you is to try it. You will need to apply Rogaine two times a day for a period of at least 4 months to get an idea if Rogaine will work for you. For many people, the scariest part about using Rogaine is that many people see MORE hair fall out when they first start using it. THIS IS NORMAL and actually a good sign. This means that Rogaine is working and the follicles have shed the old hair to make way for a new strand(s).

To recap:

• Rogaine works in approximately 40% of people who use it
• Rogaine must be applied 2 times a day
• Rogaine must be used for a period of 4 months or more to determine if it will work for you

Lastly, you must continue to use Rogaine to retain the hair you have retained or grown back. Once you stop using Rogaine, your hair will begin to revert back to where it would have been had you not used Rogaine.

Just wanted to post a quick update here. The 2% Minoxidil is on its way. We should have it in stock and shipping within 7 days. I really wish I could tell you that we would be able to have a reliable supply of 2% on hand, but every time it appears we do, we don’t. All of the 2% backorders should have been contacted by our customer service department, if not, please be sure to contact them as we want to make sure you get taken care of. Thank you for your business.

Most people assume that more is better and when it comes to hair loss solutions, people definitely believe this. Rogaine for Men comes in two flavors, 2% and 5% extra strength. The 5% solution of Minoxidil is available for men only as the FDA has not approved 5% for wommen (and probably never will as it has not been shown to grow hair more quickly in women). But, 5% Extra Strength Rogaine may not be a better fit for you if you have a sensitive or dry scalp. The 5% solution is a bit more harsh and can cause some irritation on the scalp. We would recommend you try the 5% first to see how your fair (most men have no adverse reactions to the 5% Rogaine). If you experience any irritation on your scalp, discontinue using the product immediately, take some time off, and then you may want to try the 2% Rogaine for Men.

Rogaine 5% has been shown to work up to 40% more quickly than 2%, so it is obviously better at helping people suffering from hair loss. You can read more about both 2% and 5% Rogaine for Men on our website. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email us at info@minoxidil4less.com.

We receive questions every day via phone and email from people who are looking to treat their hair loss. One of the most frequently asked questions we receive is if revivogen works. Of course, the answer is the same for Revivogen as it is with any other hair loss treatment, it works in some people. The only real way of finding out if Revivogen will work for you or someone you know, is to try it for a period of 4 to 6 months. If you are not willing to try it for this long, then do not bother ordering it or trying it, you will not be able to tell if it is in fact able to help you. The nice part about Revivogen is that is is all natural and is much more mild than other over the counter treatments like Rogaine. Revivogen is applied to the scalp two times a day, just like brushing your teeth, and becomes part of your normal daily routine within a couple of weeks. If you have more questions about Revivogen, please visit our Revivogen page for more information or email us with any questions you have.

These days more and more women are realizing that there is over the counter help to help with their hair loss. Many women lose hair for different reasons and if you are one of the millions of women who suffer from hair loss on your scalp, there may be help. Unfortunately, when it comes to hair loss in women, there are many different causes as women’s bodies are very complex. Stress, hormone imbalances, diet and a host of other things can lead to hair loss in women. Many times, these factors will lead to “spotty” hair loss, where women will lose hair in one small patch. This is different than general hair loss or thinning of the hair on the scalp. It is the general thinning on top of the scalp that may be treated by Rogaine. If you have a history of hair loss on your mother’s or father’s side and you are losing hair on the top of your scalp (not a patch of hair), then Rogaine for Women may be able to help you slow your hair loss and in some cases grow it back. For more information on this over the counter treatment (no prescription needed), visit our Rogaine for Women page and FAQ for all of the answers to your questions. If you have a specific question that you cannot find the answer to, please email us and we will get back to you in a flash.

We get hundreds of emails each week asking about hair loss and the products we sell. We also get emails for a bunch of other things, but they are not really appropriate for discussion here (ok, enough with the jokes). One of the more popular topics these days is Revivogen. People have many questions about what Revivogen is made with and more importantly, if it works. As with any hair loss treatment, there is no way to tell if and how well a treatment like Revivogen will or will not work for you. The ONLY way you will know if it does work for you, is to try it for a period of 4-6 months. What am I basing this on? I am basing it on the knowledge I have gained using these products and selling them since 1997. Trust me, if you are not willing to try something for at least 4 to 6 months, then you are most likely not going to use it anyway…even if you knew it worked. We do have a page devoted to Revivogen testimonials where you can read about a trial conducted by the manufacturer of Revivogen.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them via email or by posting a comment here. No question is stupid, so please feel free to ask.

We receive quite a few questions from people about Men’s Minoxidil and how it differs from Women’s Minoxidil. To answer those questions, the 2% Minoxidil we sell is the same for both men and women. It is a 2% topical solution of Minoxidil and there is no difference in the formula from the men’s to the women’s. However, the 5% Minoxidil is another story. 5% Minoxidil has only been approved by the FDA for use by men. My rep at Pharmacia Corp. (the original makers of Rogaine) told me that 5% Rogaine/Minoxidil did not show better results when used on women, as it did on men. This was the reason that there is no 5% Rogaine or 5% Minoxidil for women. So, if you are worried about using 2% Minoxidil for men and you are a woman, don’t worry.
