Minoxidil Destroying My Hair Texture

Dr Rassman,
I have been using Rogaine for more than a year now and it had done nothing to my hair loss, actually it increased the rate of loosing my hair plus destroying its texture. My question is; if I stop it now, will it get worse and I would loose more hair, as I have read some blog about huge shedding after stopping Minoxidil ?

Thanks for your help

If you have been using minoxidil for a long time and stop abruptly, you may experience some hair loss for whatever hairs may have been benefited. There is no way to tell how much hair loss (if any) would occur. If you did not see a dramatic increase in your hair growth from minoxidil, I doubt it would have much impact if you stopped using it.
