[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed re: biotin, as well as a very good 1-a-day multi specific to women over 50.  You can find both at Whole Foods.  [/quote]OP here-you've tried this and it works? Not sure I can go the Rogaine route because you have to apply it daily and let it sit for awhile. I don't know when I'd have time to do that.

My derm recommended using men's rogaine once a day.  I put it on about an hour before going to bed and wash my hair in the morning.  No big deal.  Has made a very big difference.[/quote]

This is what I do as well, I use the men's extra strength (5%) once a day (as opposed to the men's regular/women's 2% twice a day) at bedtime.  I use the liquid dropper (not the foam) along the part and wherever else it is thinning and it takes about 10 seconds.  After 3 months of use my copious shedding significantly decreased and by 12 months my hair volume probably doubled.  The CVS/Walgreens generic brands are significantly cheaper than Rogaine and have the exact same active ingredient.

To the PP who suggested extensions, I think that would be fine if you have thin and healthy hair, but if you have thin and thinning hair I would be worried about damaging the hair and that in the long run you would be worse off.[/quote]
