Men's Rogaine

Wanted to know if anyone has used Men's Rogaine extra strenght. Went to the derm. and was told to use Betamethasone Lotion twice a day, and Rogain. Bought a box, and I would say it is not cheap.Wondering why the label says NOT for use by women.Sure hope that the derm. know what she is talking about! Would appreciate any comments.
Thanks,
Katie

If you have AA and you are also using the intralesional injections, it may help. I tried both lotions and the pharmacy version of Rogaine at .05% and it didn't ever do anything.

You never know person to person, so it's worth trying for sure-

Hairs to you!

The box says not for use by women because there are some women who may experience facial hair growth with the 5% strength. However, 5% is much more effective than the 2%. Plus, it comes in the foam version which is much easier to apply than the liquid. My derm recommended it (and I did ask twice about the warning for women). She said it was fine.
