I started minoxidil two weeks ago with a dermaroller for four days but stopped after having dry eyes and blurry vision. My side effects have slightly gotten better but I’m shedding like crazy and lost one of my temples. Will I ever get the hair back I had when I started and return to baseline? Or will this cause permanent damage?

4 days are not enough for any permanent damage from minoxidil. Maybe the hairs that were so miniaturized before using minoxidil, maybe they won't come back but the rest will, and even those little ones that fell may come back, even if their days were numbered anyways because of the miniaturization.

Do not ever again use minoxidil or any other substance after dermarolling, never. It's just a technique invented by the retarded desperate people from hair loss forums to maximize systemic absorption of a topic solution that was especially made topical to minimize systemic absorption. You might as well take it orally if you dermaroll and after put minoxidil over your head, it's the same thing. In all the dermarolling studies ever made, they waited at least 24 hours after the dermarolling session, but people are dumb and retarded as always, especially desperate ones that would do anything to get their hair back...

Use your f*****g brain people, that's why we got it!

There was a paper in detail about how minoxidil alters the root of the hair follicle permanently and stopping it accelerates hair loss and how lengthy use makes the follicle dependent. No way I’ll be able to find it right now but I’m sure someone knows about it. I think four days can’t cripple you and you can’t lose an entire temple in 96 hours. But. I would guess it may have caused a change in hair cycle, effluvium etc. My opinion is for you to shampoo, relax, maybe massage your scalp with some oils to allow for it to breathe and cut your hair short. If you’re having rapid hair loss, aka Androgenetic Alopecia, nothing will save them. Cutting it short IMO is one way to calm down. If u want to fight it, antiandrogens are a must but act responsibly.

There are a lot of reports from people who got their hair fucked by minoxidil, there are a lot who don't believe them just because it didn't happen to them yet or maybe they are reacting differently, and this is valid in every drugs case, from finasteride to any other drug in this world, some lesser than others of course.... I was one of the ones where minoxidil fried my hair and this after reading all the stories but refusing to believe them and that it could happen to me also. Unfortunately in most cases, you have to learn it the hard way, it seems it's written in our DNA to be stupid until we get hit, some don't learn or understand it not even then, so what can i say...

Look at this guy for example, he also posted pictures and nobody still believed him, if you take a look at the after pictures and seek online other cases, you will see that this is the exact way in which every single fried minoxidil users hair looks like, and this is how mine looks like and looked after i stopped the treatment. Most hair recovered but not all, and the rest that remained, not even now after a year or so since i stopped, it hasn't recovered it's texture, softness and color... It's like it's not healthy anymore, problem that i didn't had before putting that sh*t on my head...

I agree with you because when my hair started falling at 15-16, my mother got me a shampoo that had minoxidil in and I’m sure I used it wrong too and both my hair and my face got fried and hair started falling like crazy, the typical shower hell where u would get a hundred strands in each palm. We have to stop agreeing so much tho because some here think you’re my alt.
Wdym frying your face? Or frying in general. What does it do?

Lmao, yeah i saw, they are idiots, what do you expect, let them believe what they want, the admin can easily spot where there are alts made so that is what really matters, nobody cares what the rest think...

The thread link you posted, there is no way to tell if he is completely honest. Who the f*** used that to speed up hair growth lmao.

I know, I'm using it for beard growth which implicitly means I'm applying it to speed up beard growth.

Makes me feel more at ease. Youtubers claiming it will not speed up any existing MBP process either and sh*t should revert to initial state once you quit

Lol, the reality is that youtubers are the most credible source of science, truthfulness and information. Damn i don't even comprehend how could somebody would possibly believe them just because they are, youtubers, but whatever. And you know how it is, you can believe what you want, your experience is the only one that matters to you and so goes for the rest also.. And btw minoxidil is making hair grow faster, altering the hair cycles and keeping the hair more in the anagen phase, that's why most transplant surgeons insist in taking it after the surgery to try to avoid the shock loss...

And lol at that link you posted, just lol... now words left

I microneedled last night and soaked my needle in ethyl alcahol before doing to get rid of germs. Today I had the same eye symptoms that I had two weeks ago which I thought were from minoxidil. To be fair these sides have kinda lingered since then but we’re really and today. Any chance I got sides from rolling or ethyl alcahol?? I can’t find anything online about eye sides and I’ve drank alcahol before and never got sides like this but is ethyl different?
