Uping My Minoxidil From 5% To 15% Seven God Damn Words

[vinnievandall]

So last year i tried minoxidil 5% for a full year and it didnt do anything.
Now im using 15% for 2 weeks.
Is there any chance 15% is going to work if 5 didnt do jackshit for me?

I've tried 15% minoxidil...Didn't stick with it long enough to tell if it was better than 5%.
I don't know the exact science on if using a higher percentage of minoxidil will increase results, but if you have the money & time go for it I guess.
I'm way too paranoid. I switched back to 5% because it's the percentage that's been scientifically proven to work....I'd hate to use a higher percentage, just to realize I've been wasting my time & money

Better off just investing in a 1.5mm dermaroller and rolling very lightly before applying 5% like somebody does, cheaper and will be just as effective as the higher percentage minoxidil. Also possible you are a non responder to topical, which means oral is the only other route.

Yeah tried to order oral from thailand but got destroyed in customs and had z warning from the police so oral is no option for me

Some people just drink the kirkland liquid minoxidil, that's an option. That is of course if your not a responder to topical minoxidil, for some it's useless so increasing strength won't matter.

Yeah was thinking about that but because the minoxidil is already mixed in alcohol it is kinda dangerous because it can be absorbed in your trouth instead going into you belly lol

Only for blood pressure as far i know and they will not be hasty to give this because my bloodpressure is already on the low side

I had a fue in belgium last year and they prescribed me 5mg oral minoxidil in capsule form which i collected from the pharmacy in brussels. I tried these but they gave me sides.

Is your blood pressure low from the topical minoxidil?.

I think Derelict is spot on with 5% and dermapen compared to 15%
Maybe this method gets converted in liver like oral does.
