I've been using the Rogaine liquid 2% twice a day with good results over the past couple of years. When the 5% foam was launched, i was so happy since it would have meant a one day only minoxidil application, as explained by the manifacturer. Sadly i really dislike the foam and I need to keep on using the liquid. Would a one dayly application of Rogaine 5% liquid be as effective as twice daily application of the 2% liquid for a woman whom suffers from Androgenetic alopecia ? Thank you so much , C.
