Pretty much the topic of the post
surprisingly some people clicked 'heart palpiltations' which is defo shitty side effect and so is dark circles under eyesI started using Minoxidil 5% four months ago, but didn't realize I was only using 0,1 ml instead of 1 ml until two months ago, when I inspected the syringe closely (lol, I know), so I have been using the proper dose for only two months.
I would definitely say my hairline has receded since I first posted here about 6 months ago, and I don't think Minoxidil has helped but it's probably too soon to make any conclusions.
As for the side effects, I get a bad scalp itching every day several times a day and I have also noticed a decline in my physical performance and a need to sleep longer. While I'm completely sure the itching is a side effect of Minoxidil, I can't say for sure the other symptoms are, but I tend to think so since I haven't put on weight for my physical performance to decline nor have I had any lifestyle changes that can explain the increased need for sleep, and both these symptoms began when I started using Minoxidil. I think this could be due to the fact that my blood pressure is borderline low and Minoxidil is known to lower it.
