I have been using generic form of Rogaine ( Minidoxil 5% Extra Strength made by Kirkland) for last one month. Now, I see some new hair growing at vertex. I used twice daily (80% regularly) and used less than recommended dose. No side effects seen.

I've been using it for 2 months. I have, however, had some dizziness/vertigo symptoms with the use of product. Definitely noticed hair growth but not as much as I would have liked. Can still see the visible outline of my bald area. Maybe it will fill in more over time. Not sure how long I will continue use as I am concerned about dizziness spells.

Having used Rogaine regularly for over 3 months, my crown has thickened substantially. It feels as full as on the side of my head. I have regularly applied twice a day, never missed one. There is some stickiness to the hair especially after the second application, but it really works for me.

I don't really notice any significant hair regrowth although it has slowed down the process of my hair falling out, but growing any type of new hair no way!

Rogaine Extra Strength has too many side affects. I have been using Rogaine for 2 years and I'm very dissatisfied. My doctor recommended Fortalex PT and it works a lot better than Rogaine Extra Strength. My skin would burn, irritate, swell up and get blisters with Rogaine. I've literally felt loss of breath and chest compression. My doctor quickly put me on Fortalex PT and apart from not having side affects... it actually works!
