Who it is for
- Women aged 18–65 with gradual thinning on the top of the scalp or a widening parting
- Women who want a once-daily, fast-drying foam format
Not suitable for: women under 18 or over 65; pregnancy or breastfeeding; sudden, patchy or post-illness hair loss — see a doctor first; scalp that is red, inflamed or infected; people with heart conditions should speak to their doctor before use.
How to use
- Read the patient information leaflet before use.
- On a fully dry scalp, dispense half a capful of foam once a day.
- Massage gently into the thinning areas with fingertips. Wash hands thoroughly afterwards.
- Use every day. Do not apply more than once daily — more will not speed up results.
Frequently asked questions
Q: Why is the women's version once a day when the men's is twice?
A: The licensed regimen differs: clinical studies showed once-daily 5% foam is effective for female pattern hair loss. Do not use the men's twice-daily regimen.
Q: How long before I see results?
A: Typically 12 to 24 weeks of consistent daily use. Early shedding in the first few weeks is normal and temporary.
Q: What if I stop using it?
A: Regrowth achieved with minoxidil is usually lost within 3 to 4 months of stopping, as the underlying hereditary process resumes.
