Why would rogaine minoxidil make me lose hair?

I am a female over the age of 50 and I have recently started using minoxidil (Rogaine for Women) on my scalp for my thinning hair. However, over the course of the past few weeks I have noticed significantly MORE hair loss (in noticeable clumps sometimes). Does Rogaine make you lose hair before you grow new ones? Is there any reason/solution for this other than stopping using the Rogaine (which I already have)?

This could be a reaction to the medication itself but I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.
