Weird effect

[bornwithacurse224]

So I tried minoxidil just one time and **** got weird. I kinda had a bad feeling about it but I said screw it and went and grabbed a bottle. Got the liquid stuff and used it once and then accidentally spilled it down the sink. I spent about 10 minutes parting my hair and dripping it around the top of my scalp and hairline. The next day I noticed my beard was way thicker and felt more coarse, I figured some just dripped down my face or whatever. Ever since I did that I've been rarely finding these little hairs that are like twice as thick as my normal hair and hard and coarse as ****. Did I just hit some normal hairs during a growth phase or something?

Hello,

Icreased beard/body growth is a common side effect of minoxidil. I suffer from it too, but it's a very small price to pay in order to keep your hair, you can always shave your beard. It's normal for your hair to get worser when you start minoxidil, but from what I heard after 3-6 months all that you have lost will regrow even if you hit healthy hair with it Minoxidil will not kill it, at worst you would have Telogen Effluvium at that area which is temporal(and in order for hair to become dependent on minoxidil you have to apply it at least 1 month on the area, so don't worry about it that much)

I advise you switching to foam if you find these sides unbearable. They mostly happen because the medicine gets absorbed into your system and starts traveling through your blood.

And don't you ever stop Rogaine, it will **** you up badly.

Don't panick, it's your only hope(at least for 5 years) if you can't handle finasteride.

There's 2 little triangles on each side of my hairline and I think it's thinning overall on the top so I'm pretty sure. There's still little *** hairs where it is I'm assuming it's minituarizing. I was thinking it might be just there because I used to wear my hat backwards all the time and it was always right on top of that. It hasn't changed in a year much I don't think so I took the dive into rogaine. Thinking of watching it some more before I get back on it.

I don't think minoxidil works that fast especially in a day.
