I live in a country where there is limited access to dermatologists and I have AGA. I went to see a trichologist as it was the only person I could find in my area. He gave me a prescription for 5% minoxidil twice daily to be used indefinitely - prescribed by the in-house doctor working with him. I have been doing this for 3 years now and I have recently come across a study saying that a 5% once daily is just as effective? This whole thing has been really difficult/confusing for me and I really don't want to experience shedding again as I have made some progress but I would like to reduce as it is cumbersome. Anyone done this before and what was your experience with it like?   submitted by   /u/Effective_Anybody845 [link]   [comments]
