I have a question regarding rogaine. I have thinning in the crown and front of the head too. I have read that rogaine can be beneficial for retarding additional hair loss anywhere there is hair. Thus, I split the 1 ml dose throughout my scalp rather than just concentrating it on the crown.
Would this stop the effectiveness of rogaine? I suppose I am not supposed to use more than one ml.
I would use the dose listed in the directions that came with the product that you purchased. You can put Rogaine on your crown and front area of your scalp, but it should only be placed in the areas where you want the benefits and not put in areas where the hair is good. As you know, it has not been shown to be as effective in the frontal areas.
I suspect you can use more than 1 ml, but there is a small risk of your body absorbing too much and you experiencing systemic side effects (such as headache, fainting, etc). I would think this risk is low, but it is something to think about.
If you are concerned you should ask these questions to your doctor and get a good medical physical examination to make sure you will have no issues. I am not your doctor and this is not a place to get personalized medication use advice, simply because I do not know your medical history.
You know, some people would be very happy to not have facial or chest hair. I would guess that when you are 50 years old, you would enjoy your youthful appearance. This must be a cultural or religious thing that I’m not all that familiar with, and I don’t mean to make light of your situation.

The press release you sent is the first I’ve heard of it (thanks for bringing it to my attention), but I’d assume this newly announced test identifies the same genes as 
You’ve had puffy nipples long before taking Propecia, but if you are experiencing discomfort and tenderness in your chest after taking Propecia, I would highly advise you to discuss these symptoms with your doctor. In our experience, Propecia rarely impacts men’s breasts, but the appearance of new symptoms while on the drug such as gynecomastia or painful breasts/nipples should be addressed in a thorough examination.
You shouldn’t need a prescription for minoxidil 5% topical for use in treating hair loss, as it is available over the counter (at least in the U.S., though I can’t say for sure in other countries).
