Hello, I am a 22 year old female and I
really hope someone can help me with these
issues, I have recently started to
experience hair loss and shedding and my
doctor said I should use 5% rogaine for
men, I hear it gives facial hair also, I
am worried and do not want that, I am
hoping someone that has used it or know
someone that has used it can tell me their
story please.
I am also curious if any women have
thyroid problems or anemia, please give me
details
please help, thanks

From my understanding, minoxidil (rogaine)
only works where you apply it to, so you
don't have to worry about facial hair. I
don't have much experience with thyroid
problems and such though.
