I Don’t Pay Attention to How Much Minoxidil I Use

I’ve tried searching for this question i’m asking now, but i felt like i wanna get more of a detailed answer to satisfy my curiosity.

how much minoxidil i should apply at a time ? i don’t feel like 1ml is enough at all especially for people like me who have diffuse thinning…

(1) is this 1ml for the entire head (crown) or for each bald-spot ?
(2) I also have some thinning on the sides can i use extra 1ml for the sides and back together ?

basically i use a dropper but i don’t count how much of the solution i pump out. i just let a drip fall over each gap to get my entire head covered with the liquid eventually. is this a sound way to apply minoxidil ? thanks much …

1. Apply 1 mL total over the entire area twice daily, not 1 mL to each individual spot.

2. You can try, but using too much minoxidil could result in a drop in blood pressure, among other possible side effects. It’s a medication with potential side effects. You should be careful and read the instructions thoroughly before using it.

If you’ve got diffuse thinning all over your scalp (including the sides), perhaps you have something else going on. Typically, male pattern baldness does not result in hair loss on the sides of the head.
