So far, I have been responding very well to minoxidil. I had used it in the past, but would go on for a month, off for two, on for two, off for one, etc. I have been using it continuously since the end of July, a little over 3 months. It has definitely worked. I was just about a NW2, and really wanted it to fill in my temples. I have small, light hair growth there, along with some undesirable thin hair growth on the forehead and beside the eyebrows where they meet that peak in your hair. That doesn't bother me as much since the temples are also experiencing some of the same thin growth.
About a month and a half ago, I decided that for more potent growth I'd use Xandrox 15 once a day, with 5% minoxidil once a day. Problem is, I believe the high dose minoxidil may be responsible for some of the side effects I've been experiencing lately (rapid heartbeat, indigestion, some stomach upset, dizziness). Again, nothing major, just some general uncomfortableness with regard to those side effects. I know the Xandrox 15 is a very potent dosage of minoxidil.
I don't want to stop the minoxidil altogether. So should I nix the Xandrox 15 and just use 5% 2x/day? And if that doesn't lessen the sides, maybe just 5% 1x/day? Any opinions on this?
