ROGAINE® minoxidil products are the first FDA-approved topical treatment that is clinically proven to help regrow hair. ROGAINE® minoxidil products also help to reverse the progression of hereditary hair loss.

The exact mechanism for ROGAINE®  minoxidil products is uncertain, however researchers believe that ROGAINE®  minoxidil products work in part by enlarging the hair follicles and reversing the "miniaturization" process. This miniaturization of the hair follicles is a characteristic of hereditary hair loss and can be impacted by hereditary, hormonal and age factors.

By enlarging the miniaturized follicles, the growth phase of the hair cycle is prolonged, allowing the hair to become longer and thicker looking. And with more follicles in the growth phase at the same time, your hair coverage will start to look thicker, too.

• Does ROGAINE® minoxidil products work for receding hairline
  ROGAINE® minoxidil products are approved for men experiencing gradual thinning or gradual hair loss on the top of the scalp. It is not intended for frontal baldness or receding hairline.
  
  
• Does ROGAINE® minoxidil products work for beards?
  ROGAINE® for beards has not been tested in clinical trials.
  
  
• Does ROGAINE® minoxidil products work on eyebrows?
  ROGAINE® for eyebrows has not been tested in clinical trials. Directions specifically state to avoid contact with eyes.

It may take at least 4 months for results to be seen, and your results and success may depend on the proper application and dosage.

There are a few signs to look for that let you know ROGAINE® minoxidil products are working. During the first few weeks of use you may see a temporary increase in hair shedding. This is a good sign and means that the new growth cycle is beginning, and the lost hairs are making way for the new, healthy ones.

Eventually, new growth will appear. The earliest hair growth you see may be soft and downy, but continued treatment will produce new hair with the same consistency as the other hair on your scalp.

Remember, not everyone responds to ROGAINE® minoxidil products and individual results will vary. If hair loss continues after 2 weeks or if you do not see any results after 4 months, speak with your doctor.

Hereditary hair loss is a lifelong condition requiring continuous use of ROGAINE® minoxidil products. Make it a part of your daily routine - just like brushing your teeth. Apply directly to your scalp - everyday as directed.

Continued use of ROGAINE® minoxidil products is needed to maintain hair regrowth. While our clinical studies did not go beyond 48 weeks, there is no limit on how long you may use ROGAINE® minoxidil products.

If you stop using it, the normal hair loss process will start again. You will probably lose your newly regrown hair within 3 to 4 months and will look the way you looked before using ROGAINE® minoxidil products, so you'll want to make ROGAINE® products part of your daily routine.

If you miss 1 or 2 doses of a ROGAINE® minoxidil product, however, just continue with your next regular dose. We do not recommend that you try to make up for missed doses, and 1 or 2 days of not using a ROGAINE® minoxidil product will not affect your long-term hair regrowth as long as you resume regular use.

The most common cause of hair loss is hereditary hair loss (androgenic alopecia), also known as male and female pattern hair loss. This is mainly influenced by genetic factors.

As well as hereditary hair loss, there are also other types of hair loss. Learn about the different types of alopecia to help identify why you may be experiencing thinning or balding.

Other factors that can affect hair loss include stress, hormones, underlying illness, crash diets or even tight hairstyles. If you’re worried about why you’re noticing more hair loss than usual, it’s worth seeing a doctor to rule out any underlying health issues.

It’s worth noting that while exposure to the sun will not make hair thinning worse, it’s always a good idea to protect your scalp and hair from the sun’s UV rays.

In men, hair loss is characterized by a receding hairline and a gradual disappearance of hair from the crown (vertex). In contrast, women generally experience a general thinning of the hair, with the most extensive hair loss occurring on the top of the head and along the part.

Thinning hair from hereditary hair loss is completely common and something that both women and men can experience as early as their 20s. While prevalence varies, hereditary hair loss affects about 1 in every 4 women and 1 in 2 men by age 50, and becomes more common with age.
