Awww...consider yourself hugged ...You know we all sympathize. It's so hard when you are trying to do all you can and things don't get better. Did any Dr. ever give you a reason the rogaine stopped working for you? Is that common? It seems like I hear other people say that it works a while and then loses effectiveness. It seems like with alot of treatments, they work for awhile and then we develop immunity of some sort and they stop working. That's what is keeping me from trying too much at once, though believe me....I'm desperate and want to! Are you working with a dr. or ordering meds online yourself?
