Took for 5 months high dosage 10 to 20mg. Hair kept thinning as usuall. Had shedding first 2 weeks but no improvements just more thinning.That's interesting, because I started it 3 weeks ago, and my hair has been thickening like crazy, I take 4mg daily.
amn and no weird hair growing on he upper cheek/ near nose?But i would really consider just taking liquid orally if i were you. Such a high dose which im taking currently works wonders for me and other guys also praise it (there was this guy SmthAndy who wrote a giant post in which he desribed his liquid oral minoxidil journey, he has been taking it for like 4 years if I’m not mistaken and he says he feels fine)
Being bald arguably makes you look even older than bad skin so now I'm trying to revert facial collagen loss with every scientifically proven method to increase facial collagen (microneedling + tretinoin + vitc + red light therapy + heavy skincare routine).
I have been experimenting with OM for over 2 years now. I literally have tested hopping off the drug several times and the puffyness/dark circles improve within 2 weeks, every time. I have repeated this process more than 4 times. In the end I always regret stopping because hair > skin, but I think its possible to upregulate collagen past minoxidil harm anyway so no reason not to use it.Stop blaming your old age to minoxidill jesus. How long have u been on it? UR USING a very low dosage man how can it affect your skin. I used 10 to 20mg day for 5 months no facial changes. My dark circles happaned after severe insomnia and generally poor sleep, this is normal when you have a job to go to.
It is possible to upregulate collagen on skin in quite a few ways, there are many studies proving it.If this was possible, ageing would’ve been reversed. Unfortunately it’s not possible to reverse the collagen loss, just look at old grannies.
Will this work on old ladies?It is possible to upregulate collagen on skin in quite a few ways, there are many studies proving it.
Microneedling: 400% increase

Retin-A -> 80% increase: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJM199308193290803

Just needling/tret should be enough to counteract minoxidil I think (i'll report in a few months)
Of course all of this is local to the face, I dont give a sh*t about rest of the body I dont think minoxidil has enough visual impact on that at all.
im doing work on old ladiesWill this work on old ladies?
yeah in fact most studies are done on older people because its more easy to assess collagen differences since they are depletedWill this work on old ladies?

I take it orally, in my mouth from the applicator. I separate the doses, 2 drops in the morning, 2 when I get home from work. This way there is less impact on sleep I find.How do you take it?? Orally, sub,
So one drop equal to 1mg?I take it orally, in my mouth from the applicator. I separate the doses, 2 drops in the morning, 2 when I get home from work. This way there is less impact on sleep I find.
I was kind of giving up, I am 39 now, had been a crazy responder to topical minoxidil when I was 27, then my scalp got allergic to PPG (propylene glycol) and my progress stopped. Had some temporary reliefs with things like topical finasteride, or ASJC-9 in 2012, but the last years I never the crazy regrowth I had in the beginning.
I was thinking about getting a hair transplant, since my widows peak was thinning and my crown was thinning as well.
As desparate act I started oral minoxidil, first minoxidil USP from regrowthlabs (didn't work). I used like 10mg daily but nothing happened. The only thing that happened was that I felt like sh*t, I thought it may be the other ingredients.
Then 3 weeks ago, I started on a a generic brand of minoxidil with just alcohol and ppg and water (oral 4mg), since then my eye brows have thickned, my body hair increased slightly but nothing bad, but also my scalp hair fall stopped completely and I have quite some additional thickness and my whole scalp is covered in vellus hair, which I suspect will become terminal in the coming months. I will also begin to add some adjunctants like topical dutasteride after microneedling my tempels and retinoic acid as well to speed up the recovery. But so far I am feeling great about the future again. When the progress has become more noticable on camera, I will add pictures for proof. As I have some good before pictures because I had already gone through the process of looking for hair transplant surgeons.

Depends on the dropper, but you can simply count the drops that it takes to expell a certain amount of liquid from the applicator. And you know from the concentration, the amount of minoxidil in a ml. For mine this is 50 mg / ml. And I get about 25-28 drops for half a ml. Thats about 50 drops per ml that contains 50 mg. 50mg/50 drops = 1 mg/drop. .So one drop equal to 1mg?
Please post pics of full ape growth.Oral min works, been using it for a year now, dropped topical in place of it, and gained an overall increase in thickness everywhere, I take 10mg a day, I did 5mg a day, but I wanted to be hairer body wise aswell because f*** it, why not, got growth everywhere, full ape, perfectly happy with it.
I get regular checkups though, so unless you are commited to a none fast food high salt content diet and regular doctor vists, then dont take 10mg, sh*t diet sh*t life style will increase the likelihood of water retention
