    Male 29 Years: Finally taking a leap of faith and starting regime

    I got dark circles from minoxidil. From what I can gather, this seems to only happen to certain people, and in my opinion it is probably people who already had slight puffy eyes. This is certainly the case for me, every time I have tried minoxidil either 5% or 2% I got puffy eyes. The 2% version...

    Saads Success story

    Great results, well done mate. All I seem to read is that finasteride just maintains hair, and minoxidil causes regrowth. Well I guess you're living proof of otherwise.

    Is finasteride really as awful as the internet makes it out?

    The most powerful steroids are not dht based this is wrong, testosterone is the primary active androgen in muscle tissue. Dht has a very small impact on muscle mass. More than one study has shown that the addition of Finasteride or even dutasteride to testosteone therapy had little or no impact...

    A minoxidil warning - Evidence minoxidil causes eye circles, wrinkles and bad skin

    I don't buy into the collagen theory of it causing wrinkles and so on. But 100% every time I have used minoxidil I get puffy eyes. Its caused by vasodilatory edema. I don't use minoxidil anymore but here is what I found helped, taking the 2% version, and reducing my sodium intake and upping my water...

    Vitamin D

    I guess so, but it could partly come down to what is considered normal. I get the same amount of sun exposure as my friends and family, and on top of that i supplement, so am I wrong to take extra, or are they wrong not to.

    Vitamin D

    Yes, i wasnt suggesting that it was linked to mbp as such, but rather hair cycling in general. I personally believe there may become a point where too much could become potentailly harmful. Relatively low concentrations (1-10 nM) of 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulated the cumulative growth of hair...

    Vitamin D

    There is nothing to win, if you look at my posts I never stated that vitamin d definatley caused hairloss, I just wanted others opinions because of certain things Ive read. Im actually glad you found that, at least you actually tried to prove something rather than just arguing for the sake of...

    Vitamin D

    Like I said, Im only saying what i have read..However, i would disagree about your sun exposure theory. I don't really no anyone who gets half an hour of quality sun exposure a day year round.There are not many people walking around with constant high levels of 1,25(OH)2D3.Your acting like Im...

    Vitamin D

    lol, how is it ridiculous? Im just pointing out what Ive read, I didnt say I knew for sure, I was pretty much asking for others opinions. Substances regulating the homeostasis of calcium and phosphorous may also be involved in control of hair growth. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and...

    Vitamin D

    I don't no if its necessary to inhibit the vitamin d as such, just if you are already taking it at levels of over 1000iu cut down the intake. I may however be wrong, but since researching i have seen many studies linking high vitamin d levels to high levels of tgf-b which if you look, is not...

    Vitamin D

    What are peoples thoughts on vitamin d? Ive been taking around 5000iu for 2 years now, not because i thought it was good for hair, just for the general health benefits. During this time, I have gone from having a small bit of frontal recession to alot of diffuse thinning. It seems to have...

    Should I stop big 3 ? Pic of minoxidil dark circles inside

    ive been back on minoxidil for nearly four weeks, and the problem hasn't occurred this time...I have been sleeping only on my back every single night, and i honestly believe that this is the key difference.. I guess you know how minoxidil works so i wont get into it, but it is extremely logical to...

    Should I stop big 3 ? Pic of minoxidil dark circles inside

    Yes, I used to sleep on my right side, and the eye bag on my right side was slightly worse....i am almost convinced that it happened due to the fact i would put minoxidil on just before bedtime, and then spend 10 hours face down asleep...this meant that more blood was pooling in my face, and the...
