I got mild hypertrichosis from topical minoxidil. I can see it on my chest, my back, my hands, and so on. Certainly on my face. I can easily remove the hairs, for the most part, so it's no big deal.

I suspect that if I started popping the Loniten, it would turn me into a werewolf.
I am fascinated by hypertrichosis on the hands, arms and legs. Can you post pics of your hands?

Yes, my moustache. I now look like Pancho Villa, no joke. My hair looks good, I'm not sure if minoxidil is helping because I also take dutasteride but the moustache is definitely thicker.

Yeah, it is definitely thicker. Coarser. So much so that someone even commented on it.
Yo how long did it take before you noticed oral minoxidil results? My level of hair patern baldness is nothing serious, so I might be now in the same position as u were.

I've been using it orally for about 8 months and I'd say within two months I noticed head hair getting thicker, along with eyebrows and beard. But I don't have any male pattern baldness, so your results may be different.

But not the overweight p**rn star kind you see all gussied up in leather. I like a handsome, fit dude who has a lot of hair on his face, chest, arms and legs.

I'm surprised losingbattle88 hasn't chimed in yet.

I didnt see these new comments. But I hate what oral minoxidill did to my hands, now I gotta shave all the time, im repulsed by this. I always liked the look of smooth shaved guys not hairy cavemen. Good I quit this poison in time. It gave me heart issues anyway and it does reduce collagen production, didnt work at all for me anyway.

Oral minoxidil is trash .your hands should go back to normal within 6 months of quitting I'll be quitting in 3 months if no gains,and putting up with the dry eye side effect issue oral minoxidil is doing to my left eye is really irritating so I'll be happy to quit this crap as I hate body hair and want it to go away lol.i would put up with the hypertrichosis if it acually thicken up my scalp hair but alas

If I wanted a smooth partner, I'd choose a woman. Mother Nature intended dudes to be hairy.

Minoxidil is definitely making my arms and legs hairier. Can't complain, for sure.
