Rogaine for Women

 

Rogaine for Women is the first and only FDA approved over-the-counter medication that’s clinically shown to arrest falling hair and restore growth. Made and Marketed by McNeil PPC, an affiliate of Johnson & Johnson and a leader in consumer healthcare products, Rogaine for Women comes as a shampoo or the original topical solution.  

 

Rogaine uses Minoxidil as its active ingredient in a 5% extra-strength topical solution that works as a vasodilator allowing blood vessels in the scalp to bring the needed nutrients to shrunken hair follicles to rejuvenate them. Accidentally discovered in the 80s in patients using prescriptive Minoxidil to treat high blood condition, it is now one of the most popular treatments for controlling baldness or thinning hair in the crown for both men and women.

 

 

Is Rogaine for Women Good?

 

Rogaine’s Minoxidil is an effective vasodilator for hypertensive patients and Rogaine’s 5% solution has been clinically tested to yield visible results in 85% of patients undergoing treatment. When applied twice daily, you get visible results in 4 to 6 months. Following are some testimonies from happy users of Rogaine:

 

By  D. S. Feliciano "D.S.Feliciano" (Paradise, CA USA): It really works!, November 5, 2007:  “I was a bit skeptical of this product before trying it, even more so when the instructions said that it could take 3-6 months to see any improvement (and then only in a relatively small percentage of users). I guess that I got lucky: it started working for me in about 8 weeks. I know that I have to continue to use it twice daily to keep the improvement, but the improvement is noticeable and welcome! My only complaint (and it's a small one) is that it must be used twice a day, which is occasionally inconvenient, and you have to keep your hair dry for 2 hours after using. Other than that, I'm sold!”

 

By  W. Wang (Queens, NY): works better than other products, July 15, 2008:  “I started noticing significant amount of hair falling out while I was on birth control. With so many products on the market promising to produce dramatic results, I decided to stick with the brand I could trust, which is Rogaine. At first I was skeptical and did not see new hair growing. But after about 3-4 weeks, my hair loss had stopped, it was no longer handful when I brushed or shampooed. By the end of 2nd month, I noticed tiny baby hair on my scalp, my hair was growing back slowly, I definitely saw improvement. I've been using Rogaine for over a year now, I have seen moderate growth on my scalp. I'm pretty satisfied with the result, though the growth was not dramatic, but at least I know it works and it's not a scam. Just be patient and you'll notice a difference.”

 

 

Is Rogaine for Women Safe?

 

Rogaine for Women is for external use only. If ingested, drink water or seek immediate medical attention. It is not meant for children and those below 18 years of age. The website also advices that Rogaine for Women need not be used by people with no family history of hair loss, or with hair loss caused by infection or disease.

 

The fact that Rogaine is FDA approved indicates its high level of safety and efficacy. But it’s always prudent to consult with your doctor prior to using Rogaine, especially if you have chronic medical condition like heart disease or high blood, or are taking other prescribed medication that may interact with it.  

 

Its active ingredient Minoxidil is a pharmaceutical product which your doctor can check if compatible with any medication you are receiving. Some people have been known to experience mild side effects like dizziness, chest pains, rapid heartbeat, scalp irritation, numbness in the hands, weight gain and even unwanted facial hair growth. Stop using the product when any of these happen and check with your doctor right away.
