I'm a woman who has been using rogaine 5% for a out month if my hair shedding can I switch to using rogaine for women 2%?

I suggest a consult and starting in offie PRP/acell and at home theradome (see link).

You need a formal evaluation to see what type of hair loss you may have. when you have hairless its best to do a full hormonal workup for internal optimization plus scalp biopsies or scrapings to rule out any stress related, inflammatory, autoimmune or infectious causes of hair loss. In general most people with early hair loss have telogen (stress related) and/or androgenetic (normal aging) and both can be treated with in office treatments like steroid injections, PRP/acell, Exosomes and at home treatments like oral medications, oral vitamins like Viviscal, topical exfoliating sprays like Restorsea, and weekly growth factors like anteagemd. See an expert for an evaluation. If hair loss is significant it may requires hair transplant (follicular unit translation).

Excellent and frequent question. Do not worry. Yes, shedding may happen the first 8-12 weeks after applying Minoxidil and it is NORMAL then your hair will grow back. I usually tell my patients about the possible and initial side effect. If you have any additional issues, you need to contact your doctor. Good luck.
