Ryan,

Every drug comes with the potential of side effects. I recommend visiting Rogaine’s website to learn more about the possible side effects associated with its use. If you are under 18, I highly recommend discussing your concerns about hair loss with your parents and a physician to go over your options more thoroughly.

Best wishes,

Ryan,

Rogaine doesn’t contain any steroids. The active ingredient is minoxidil, an FDA approved and proven hair growth stimulant. Rogaine is best used in conjunction with Propecia, the only FDA approved pill to stop hair loss by blocking DHT, the hormone responsible for carrying out genetic baldness.

I hope this helps.

Does rogaine contain any form of steroids?
Like is it safe to use for a faster hair growth rather then if I’m suffering from hairloss?

Amie,

Rogaine is a proven and FDA approved hair regrowth stimulant that may help strengthen and rejuvenate naturally thinning hair where it’s applied.

While some hair restoration physicians believe Rogaine may help jump start early growth, transplanted hair will grow regardless of whether or not you use Rogaine.

I hope this helps.

I, too, have experienced the dark rings and bags around my eyes after 2-3 months of usage and now I’m seeing pore enlargement under my eyes after 4 months of usage. I wanted it to work, but I’ll end up looking worse from these side effects if I stay on it.

If you want to try it, keep an eye out for these side effects. From what I’ve read, they remain for a few years after ceasing treatment.

Yes, you can use other styling products with Rogaine. It’s just a good idea to let the Rogaine foam dry prior to applying anything else to your scalp. You can facilitate drying by using a blow dryer on a low, cool setting. It’s a good idea never to use heat since it’s bad for your hair.

Can you use rogaine foam in conjunction with styling products, ie wax, gel?

And does it have to be applied to wet hair and air dried? or can it be blown dry? or can you apply it to dry hair?

Minoxidil regrew lots of hair but the dark rings around my eyes and lots of new wrinkles mafe me stop it. Most of this has gone after 5 years away from hairloss tonic Minoxidil.
