A member asked:
My hair line has been receding more aggressively as i've been using rogaine (minoxidil) foam. could the foam be facilitating this hair loss? should i stop using?

Uncertain: If you noticed that a significant change occurred after using this product then stop and see if the hair loss continues. I would also look into medical reasons for hair loss such as thyroid function.
