Post Rogain question

I have a bald spot forming on the top of my head and am thinking of getting Rogaine. I wanted to know how effective is it, are there any side effects, and are there certain people who shouldn't take it? Also, what happens if you exercise? I would hate to have my sweat spread the Rogaine to my neck and back and make me grow hair in unwanted places.

I don't mind trying it and discovering that it doesn't work. My big concern is that if I work out, the sweat from my head will spread the Rogaine to my neck and back and make me grow there.

Just let it dry first and you won't have a problem.

PS....It doesn't work.
