Seeking Advice on Minoxidil Foam Application Dosage and Frequency

General Basic Questions
1

hi, i just started using 5% rogaine minoxidil foam but couldn’t find a consensus here on how to apply it. hoping people who have managed to get good regrowth could share their routine.

two things confusing me:

- how much per application? half a cap, a full cap, or however much you need to cover your whole scalp?

- how many times a day? once or twice? and if twice, is it actually worth it or does once get you pretty much the same results?

trying to figure out the right amount to get regrowth while also avoiding sides. and yep, i’m on finasteride.

thanks!

You wanna apply half a cap of the foam directly to the thinning areas, ideally twice a day for best results. Once a day can work but might be less effective. Since you’re also on fin, you’re covering both growth and DHT reduction, which is a solid combo. Make sure not to over-apply to avoid irritation.
