I have experienced Cardio Vascular side effects from Finasteride.

Me too, when I reduced the amount of drug, and it got worse when I stopped using the drug. In my case it's because of changes in thyriod hormones. My body has begun to produce too much T4, and when I did my last blood test, they discovered that the ratio between TSH and T4 was wrong. It gives me a racing heart very often. It's not from Rogaine.

i was 7Days in the Hospital No minoxidil
and take Daily 1,25mg finasteride

at Home i make a attempt with minoxidil
Bloodpressure after one hour after minoxidil

Just another thought... Since DHT is known to strengthen the muscles; what does DHT deficiency do to your heart? More important, how does it affect you, if you should develop hypogonadism?

Yes, no doubt, but what I'm experiencing, isn't because of minoxidil.

Who knows. Men are larger than women, they carry more weight. They're much stronger than women in general.

A lot of PFS sufferers have problem with their thyriod hormones.
