Foam minoxidil may be a good alternative for those who experience irritation from liquid minoxidil, though opinions on its effectiveness vary. Some users suggest oral minoxidil as a more effective option with fewer side effects at low doses, while others recommend foam or alcohol-free topical versions for sensitive scalps.
community How insane is this oral min shed?
A user started taking 0.625mg oral minoxidil daily for hair loss, increased the dose to 1.25mg, and experienced a significant shed, losing 70% of scalp density. They cannot tolerate finasteride due to side effects but are hopeful for hair regrowth despite the shedding.
