ROGAINE FOAM - SURVEY OF RESULTS SO FAR

I would like to know if anyone is getting any results yet ? I know its not been out long enough for long term results to filter through yet but would like to know your thoughts thus far.

If possible, can we keep it to the same format for answers to make it easier for us all to follow.

Do you like the way it makes your hair look. yes & no. gives it a dull coating but makes it look thicker

Did you experience a shed. shed hasn't really stopped. could just be aggressive MPB.

Do you experience any facial puffiness. yes. helped by drinking lots of water, but still get it.

Does it make your facial skin look dry/crap. yes, seems a little worse. am i just imagining it though ?

Does it make your hair "tangle" and lose hair when brushing afterwards. yes, all the time. very disturbing.tangled hair pulls out in brush.

Did you take any before/after pics. no. don't need to. i know what my hair looks like.

Any other comments. its only been 5 months so far which should be around the time i should begin seeing any results. I am not very hopeful though as my hairline has been decimated and i don't see ANY hair coming in.

Did you use Minoxidil before switching to the Foam.Which brand. yes. Spectral DNC "A" version mostly, some "s" version.

How long did you use this for. May 06 - Dec 06. (7 months)

i cant say i have much regrowth,my photos definetly show some but nothing amazing.they say one year mark is when avodart should really show its stuff so well see.i dont have much faith in minox.personally i think its crap and its only because of a lack of any other so called"growth stimulators"with any clinical data,that i use it.i really dont know why i continue to use it anymore.my trouble area was my temples and just starting to notice the top ever so slightly.

avodart filled in the crown and minox did nothing for my hairline so im hoping my 2200 grafts will be enough to make me satisfied with my temples(only area still of concern,but 11 weeks is still far too soon to tell but innitial results are promising).

the funny thing is,although nothing fixed my temples except grafts(fingers crossed)and my not even noticable to anyone but me ,thinning on my top,i credit avodart before ill credit rogaine,i dont know why i even use it,but i look at my mother who was experiencing post menopausal female pattern hairloss regrew a fucking ton of hair on the stuff.i mean all over and noy peach fuzz.if i had before and after photos of her youd be amazed.i think it really works far better on woman than men.

So, I abandoned Dr. Lee's products and went back to rogaine. I had started using the foam maybe two months before using Dr. Lee's products. I now use the foam twice a day at the hairline and the crown.

I believe the foam is the best thing I'm using to minimize shedding. My hair sylist commented that my hair had gotten thicker when I first started using the foam. I wish I never stopped to try Dr. Lee's products (though I'm sure they'll work for others).

For me, the foam has been great. Using it twice a day has helped to stabilize my rate of loss. Maybe I find a couple hairs coming out in the shower.

Until they come out with something better, I'm sticking to the foam. It is definitely helping. It may have regrown some hair at the crown. I'm not sure. I just know my rate of loss is much better
