Question

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

If you are a woman, Women's Rogaine Foam works.  However it does not mean it will work for you.  Use as directed.  You need a diagnosis before treatment options. Follow up with a doctor if you have issues.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Yes, Women's Rogaine foam works. Once daily use of the foam is just as good as twice daily use of the 2 % solution. Rogaine foam doesn't help all women - but around 30 %-40 % will have some response.Rogaine takes 6 months to see an effect and I recommend 9 months before deciding if it works or not. Most give up to early. I've seen countless good responses to Rogaine and I've also seen my share of non responders as well. Compared to a lot of the ineffective, unsubstantiated or unregulated products, Rogaine will remain on my list of treatments for women for a while.
