Hi,
About 3 weeks ago, I started using Rogaine, not because I had any hair loss, but because it runs in my family, and it had been advertised to prevent it. However, a few days ago, I noticed that my hair was much thinner on top than just a few days before that. I immediately stopped using the Rogaine. Is it possible that it caused my hair to thin? I have heard that it first gets all the hairs in sync, and this can cause thinning, but it should grow back. What is your opinion?
Thanks

 don't worry. I cannot see that the medication use was/is the cause of your thinning hair. I use this medication at times to increase the appetite of my patients. and rest assured, they don't lose their hair.

I've read that Rogaine intially causes hair to fall out and then new hair grows.
Weird...
