Rogaine for Men is available without a prescription, it's easy to buy. And it's easy to use, too.
All you need to do is to apply it two times a day with one of the applicators enclosed in the package--it only takes a minute in
the morning and a minute at night. Rogaine is colorless and it's fragrance free so no one will know you're using it. You can even
have your hair colored while using Rogaine.
As a new user, you may not see any distinct hair regrowth immediately. However, this is no reason to be discouraged. Rogaine works
gradually, so you need to be sure to use it twice a day to achieve your desired results. Some new users may notice an increase in
hair loss immediately after starting use of Rogaine. This is not a cause for worry--it is actually a sign that Rogaine is working.
That's because Rogaine works by enlarging the hair follicles, so sometimes Rogaine helps users regrow their hair by first discarding
older, weaker hairs. If you do find yourself shedding hair longer than two to four weeks, please see your doctor.
While you are waiting for results, continue to style your hair as you normally would. If you apply Rogaine after taking a shower,
try to let your hair air-dry, or set your hairdryer to a low cool setting after applying the solution.
For best results, Rogaine For Men needs to be applied directly to the scalp every day, twice a day.

Product Information
- Use to regrow hair on top of the scalp (vertex only, see pictures to the left).
Not intended for frontal baldness or receding hairline.
- It takes time to regrow hair. With Rogaine Extra Strength for Men, results may
occur at 2 months with twice daily usage. For some
men, it may take at least 4 months for results to be seen.
- The amount of hair regrowth is
different for each person. Rogaine Extra Strength for
Men will not work for all men.
- In clinical studies of mostly white men aged 18-49 years with moderate degrees of
hair loss, the following response to Rogaine was reported: 26% of men reported moderate
to dense hair regrowth after using Rogaine for 4 months (26% had moderate to dense regrowth;
33% had minimal regrowth). This compares with 11% of men reporting hair regrowth after
using the placebo, the liquid without Rogaine in it, for 4 months (11% had moderate to dense
regrowth; 31% had minimal regrowth).
- If your amount of hair loss is more than that shown on the left, or your hair loss is on
the front of the scalp, Rogaine for Men may not work.
- Continued use is necessary or
hair loss will begin again. If you do not see hair
regrowth in 4 months, stop use. In studies with
Rogaine for Men, hair regrowth has not been
shown to progress any further than 48 weeks of continuous treatment
in large clinical trials.
