I feel after 1 year experience of rogaine when you apply it in your head it affects the phase from all hair, including those which are healthy! Thats why after my hair transplant Im a bit afraid to apply it, in the thought that maybe affects some way the new upcoming hair. Whats your opinion?

You really need to see a doctor for a proper exam. One photo and short descriptions will not help with your cause. I realize it may be frustrating but female hair loss can be very complicated and often times doctors don't have a single cause.
I recommend patients start Rogaine about 10 days after hair transplant if they were using it prior to the surgery. If they were never using rogaine before the surgery, I have them wait about 21 days as sometimes patients can have a skin reaction to rogaine and I would not like that happening ...
