Does Minoxidil cause PFS symptoms?

[EmilKing]

I quit Fin 1 month ago and unfortunately still experience few side effects, low erection quality, no morning wood and low sensitivity. Although slowly slowly improving (thanks to supplement superstack), the side effects are still very noticeable. 45 days of NoFap hasnt helped either.

I've been reading some accounts of people experiencing these side effects on Minoxodil. Even when applied topically. I didnt think this was possible when i started Min 1 month ago but Now i am nocebo'd into thinking that some of my leftover Fin sides are actually being triggered by Min.

I am now super paranoid because i am JUST NOW starting to see some improvement in my hair BUT im scared that If i quit now , i will lose my progress. I fucking hate this dick vs. hair black/white complex.

Has anyone experienced PFS sides on Min? Do you think if i switch to the 2% formula and apply EOD , it would reduce my symptoms?
Whats the actual redpill on this?

I've been reading some accounts.

you've been reading anecdotal bullshit written by insecure retards who have no idea how anything works. Post finasteride syndrome isn't even real it's fucking hysteria spread by neurotic aspies

Just get your T levels checked. If they're low you get prescribed T anyways

All minoxidil does is increase blood flow. At worse it might affect your collagen but even that has nothing concrete to support it

Either the nocebo is extremely strong and im deluded or the side effects are fucking real. How can you explain the lack of morning wood? I used to have it almost everyday pre-fin. I could get hard from pure thought.

Also i DID get my levels checked. 600ng/dl test normal. E2 slightly higher than normal (currently working to fix). Iron was slightly low. everything else was normal

Minoxidil may suppress androgen receptor-related functions

Although minoxidil has been used for more than two decades to treat androgenetic alopecia (AGA), an androgen-androgen receptor (AR) pathway-dominant disease, its precise mechanism of action remains elusive. We hypothesized that minoxidil may influence ...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

As shown in Fig. Fig.1D,1D, minoxidil suppressed DHT-dependent LNCaP cell growth in concentration-dependent manner. Notably, at the highest concentration, cell growth was suppressed to a level comparable to that observed in the absence of DHT. These data provide the first demonstration that minoxidil can suppress AR-related functions, including AR transcription and AR-related cell growth.

Stop minoxidil for 2-3 days and if u don’t feel any different than it’s not the Min.

are you sure the sides would go away that fast?
How about the fact that Fin could still be in my system? (although its been a month since quitting fin)

I got PFS after getting close to a bottle of minox

Fin is not in your system anymore at 1 month. Stop the Min for 2-3 days and if you don’t feel any different you know it’s not the Min. Yes, if it’s the Min, you will see a difference not applying it for 3 days.
