For Alopecia "The product works for me. I was very dubious but decided to try it as a last-ditch attempt before an FUE hair transplant. I don't need a transplant now, I am thrilled to say! New fine hairs started to grow after five weeks, and I didn't notice any shedding at all. It's best to keep track with a shaving mirror. Now at three months, my old hairline is returning, which is almost beyond belief! My only fear is that this progress will slow, but I am keeping my fingers crossed. Things are looking good, and the fine hairs are thickening and darkening."

For Alopecia "This Rogaine Men's Extra Strength medication caused my face to swell and my hands/feet. It causes excruciating headaches and makes your head feel as though it weighs 5 pounds. It causes irregular and rapid heartbeats, some nausea/vomiting. In the area applied, it takes the color from your hair and leaves it 'gray.' It causes you to feel dizzy, like fainting and fatigue with cold chills intermittently. Maybe taking a diuretic would have eliminated the discomfort and unpleasantness of facial swelling and feeling heavy-headed."

For Alopecia "When I used Rogaine for the first time, I instantly started to see results within 2 weeks. My hair was filling in and strengthening, but when I reached my third bottle in the case, I noticed it smelled a little stronger than the others did and it dried and made my hair weaker, then slowly started to fall out."

"After three days' use, I started having large red bumps on the back of my hairline and on my neck. Also, chest pain the three nights. I stopped using it then, hopefully, it will be corrected in a few days."

For Alopecia "This was recommended by my dermatologist. I've been using Rogaine for about ten years, I think I am getting results, so I have stuck with it for so long. Although it improves the health of the thinning areas and may even slow down the process of male pattern baldness, I don't see any hard evidence that dead hair follicles are revitalized. In fact, it is my belief that once a hair follicle dies, like anything else, it dies. I'm 59, and I believe my hair still looks good, feels good, and the balding process has been, at the very least, slowed to an acceptable level."

For Alopecia "This drug ruined my life. The first time I applied Kirkland 5% to my head, within minutes I became extremely lightheaded, with blurry vision. This persisted for a week before I tried applying some more (maybe it wasn't minoxidil)? The 2nd application resulted in even more dizziness, and after my 3rd and 4th application, I began having severe multi-day headaches. Suffice to say I completely stopped, but 8 months later and I am still suffering from an annihilated vestibular system causing major balance issues and constant dizziness and fatigue."
