I took the usual dose of 5 mg (if my memory serves me correctly). But the effect of water retention did not disappear even after half a year. Also, because of minoxidil, my body hair began to grow, my eyebrows increased in size. I will never use minoxidil again, too much inconvenience.
the only side effect i get is really badanxiety sometimes not always! It saved my life and of course it grew hair everywhere in my body and made my haircolor a lot darker from light brown to almost black which i hate it but that meant that it was that light from thinning maybe!It reversed even temples man i love it! Oral minoxidil is the sh*t
U probably dont notice it much but others do. U get puffier cheeks on it for sure Kinda moonface. At 22mg i dont believe U.
Dont forget water around the heart. Eventually it will kill you. Its a silent killer. I was on 15-20mg for 5 months and started shitting blood litteraly. Also no effect on my hair. Just reduced shedding but I kept on balding. Oral min isnt safe long term.
I noticed this most strongly in the eyelids. They swelled and the look was less open. I constantly looked like I had just woken up.
Thanks! Good to be back.
I can only speak from my experience and I only got puffy when I ate alot of salt. I do get occasional dark circles but just put a tiny bit of foundation under your eyes and it's not a problem.
I think the reason why temple hairs are specifically the hardest to regrow is because they were already miniaturized in your youth so when they fall out from puberty its pretty much over. I was a substitute teacher for a bit and noticed a lot of the kids had really thin hair at the temples or none at all even before puberty. Still makes me feel like absolute sh*t when I scrutinize my hairline but maybe I'll treat myself to a little transplant some day.
Why do u derma stamp 1.5mm and use RU? That will make RU go systemic as hell. The molar mass of RU is in the 300 range so no point.Thanks! Good to be back.
My current regimen:
finasteride 1mg 4x week
dutasteride 0.5mg 3x week
cpa 25mg daily
oral min 10mg daily
RU 5% daily
weekly microneedling using a dermastamp at 1.5mm and I apply the RU directly after.
My hair is still pretty good! I have lost some of the regrowth from oral min on my temples and hairline but my hair is still generally thicker than it's ever been
Yea that's the point. I'm trying to get it to go systemic/better absorption.
Just take it orally bro
Why not add in some finasteride or duta so you don't have to use so much RU?
no pain no gain brahs
Damn your hair looks so good..what a progress
Estradiol + bicalutamide is just a miracle.
Yes seems it can do wonders to the face as well
I can't say the same, my skin is very very dry on bica, but I also use tretinoin, which is contributing to dryness
No, I'm just enjoying my pre puberty like hair
