NW2-2.5 Considering 2.5mg Oral Min for Better Growth, Concerns About Shedding

Treatments Minoxidil

Hi.

For context - I use 5%+0.1% min fin topical solution 2 times a day and take 1mg oral fin on alternative days. I don’t see much regrowth, but hair fall stopped and I am quite happy with the result. Iam in nw2-2.5 stage.

I have small visible spot on back of head , so Iam thinking of taking 2.5 mg oral min on alternate days and reducing topical to 1 time a day for 3 months, hoping for better growth and then switch to current regime. Will this work or cause shedding? If by chance I get lucky , can I mentain it?

If anyone tried this please let me know.

Thanks

Switching to oral min can help boost growth but be ready for possible shedding when changing treatments. If you see results, maintaining with your original routine is possible. Consider trying it for at least 3-6 months to assess changes. Check out The Beginner’s Guide for more on oral vs. topical min.
