Question

Is there any other workable pattern,in regaine use, other than everyday application, lets say every 2 days or once time per week..or you will just confuse your hair in terms of they will be constantly lets say in the shedding phase! I dont like use it every day!

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

The recommended dose or use of Rogaine is to apply it to your scalp twice a day everyday.  Once a week or every two days would likely not work.

Greg Williams, FRCS (Plast) · Answer

If you are interested in maintaining your hair then you should use the minoxidil product as recommended - at least once a day but preferably twice a day.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Rogaine is FDA approved for daily use. Every 2nd day use is much much less effective than daily use. Use every other day does not complicate shedding. At minimum, Rogaine needs to be used 5 days per week to make it a worthwhile trial for most people. Daily use is better.
