My teen daughter made rosemary oil. It has grown in my thin spots. My lashes are fuller, and my eyebrows are fuller. The oil really works. I pray this helps someone. Thank you, Doctor. I just found your page. I really appreciate you more than you realize...

mens and womens products are often the same, just the women's packaging is pink and the price is higher.

I’ve been taking one minoxodil tablet per day. I can’t believe how much better my hair looks. It is absolutely thicker. I didn’t think it would work, but it does. I’m very sensitive to meds and I’ve had zero side effects.❤

[JudySterling]

I LOVE your spray bottle hack! So much easier. Thanks!

[MICHELLE-guqc]

I am lucky enough to have very thick hair so I didn't loose hair during menopause. My son's hair was thining and he used Regain and it really helped thicken it up. You can no longer see his scalp. Next time I see my doctor I am requesting HRT I have an inflammation disease as it is and menopause I have no energy, pain is a lot worse. Every inch of my body feels like its got inflammation. Thank you for channels like yours. I am sick of medical gaslighting. I know so many women who ended up having hysterectomies and I wonder if they were treated better maybe it could have been avoided

[maggielo]

You are an angel sent from God to rescue all the women. Thanks God I have found you . ❤❤❤

I started minoxidil around 3 weeks ago. I'm already seeing fuzzies. We'll see where it goes. 🤞
Maybe I can regain some hair lost to Graves disease, as well as the more recent menopause shedding.

[hollybland]

She is spot on, I’ve been using it for 3 years and have completely thick edges again, that was my thinning area . I highly suggest minoxidil, i began seeing new hair follicles within a week, full disclaimer after seeing my initial results I began slacking off and my edges went back to their previous sparce state . Out of three years 2 1/2 were consistent today they’re strong enough that I have a maintenance plan of 1-2 a week .

At 62-63 Used Rogain Minoxidil for 8 months, Got significant breast tenderness like pre menopause. Couldn’t stand it! Got some new growth but not impressed. Stopped due to breast pain, lack of significant growth, cost, and yes you CANT stop using it, ever. What little I gained all fell out!!!

Walmart equate brand 5% for men works just as effective is any brand name and much more
Budget friendly

[forsalebymb]

Had radical hysterectomy years ago..have done everything from the pill they give everyone to the pellets which i do now...only last maybe 2 months and hair is falling out horribly...going to try going back to somewhere else. Shot is so expensive that i cannot afford to keep up with it but hey...if you're Trans then insurance will cover it...pisses me off

[franceswalker]

That's what my female dermatologist told me to use Rogaine for men. You can also get a prescription from your doctor for skin irritation from the minoxidil.

[Noah-fifz]

Can you please explain Prolactin changes in a Women’s life especially peri menopause. Thanks

[MrsTerrylm]

What are your thoughts to the claims that Rosemary oil stimulates hair growth?

[krystinacastleburning]

I always wondered if Rogaine actually worked.

[nursejen]

Just curious why it says not for women on the box? I just got mine from costco. I believe my hair loss is due to a combo of stress with my dad being sick and peri menopause.

[Branbrina]

What if you have psoriasis? Every time I see something that can actually help me it ends up being unusable because of psoriasis. Super frustrating. 😢

[CelticKym]

The topical makes my hair feel disgusting. Is minoxidil in pill form just as effective?

[LSS]

They say minoxidil also causes significant hair loss when you start to use it, which is terrifying. Also, who knows what this potent product does to the body systemically over many years of use? I’ve never seen any information about clinical trials for women that have been done. There really isn’t any effective and natural product that can help menopausal women regain their formerly beautiful hair, unfortunately. It’s a depressing side effect of aging, like weight gain, especially around the waist and abdominal area. Literally overnight, I woke up with a different body type after years of having a tiny waist and flat abs.

Also, what causes breasts to get so big in menopause? Some of my favorite suit jackets and blazers no longer fit. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

It’s interesting that some menopausal women don’t experience hair loss at all.

I wonder why HRT doesn’t help with this problem so many women face…

Please be kind and tell us if you leave it in your hair and for how long ? Or I should rinse afterwards etc . Immensely thankful for your kindness and time 💐
