even if what he's saying is the truth, it would still work locally so applying minox at your scalp wouldn't impove the skin on your face

it can bloat you but maybe if you run it with some weaker healthy diuretic like dandelion root extract and you don't fuck up your heart it could be mogger for the skin, hair and the lashes + brows too

Yeah its tough to tell since we have to rely on anecdotes from neurotic ppl on hairloss forums. On my third month of it and got no bloat and surprisingly no extra body hair (thought I would grow a bunch because i alrdy get a fair amount of leg hair and hair down middle of stomach from roid use).

I think at the low doses (2.5mg- maybe 5mg or so) the negative side effects are seriously exaggerated.

Im not from the uk mane, ill make a call tomorrow to the hospital or something
 
i was on for a year and a half, oral topical minox.
i feel it also could have negatively effected collagen tho idk. i bloated on it which i only noticed after looking at older pictures of me.
i have now stopped. i think bloat has gone. i think eyelashes and eyebrows are reverting. i’ve been off 1 month.

Wht dose where u on?
 
5mg a day.
hmm im on 2.5mg a day and currently the lightest ive been for years. Ive been using test for years and just high trt atm but can up my test dose by 50mg and put on 3kg of water within 5 days or so if I'm bloating I definitely don't think I'm bloating much but I will start taking pics like u did.

being the lightest doesn’t mean your not retaining. when i was on minox, i giga cut bodyweight and was my lowest. i discontinued minox and dropped another 2-3kg.

how much test you run rn on trt?

180mg when you say u held water it was just in ur face? or did u become less defined elsewhere. Also ive heard in those that held water in the face with minox allot of the time it came with under eye circles etc did you have that?

i noticed more face bloat, yes. i think it has something to do with sodium and potassium since minox fucks with the potassium channels so you retain more sodium or soemthing.
i didn’t have undereye problems

what’s your reason for minox? hairline revival? brows and lashes?

Nah my hairs gd and thick now stabilised on dut for 5 years just using it because of hair greed lol. Probs ill try and mess around with my sodium and potassium intake and see if I notice any difference and then just drop it for a month since ive only been on it for 3 months so no loss in stopping and starting again later. IK face bloat cn creep up on u and its easy not to notice.

you may think it’s cope, but oral castor @ 5mL. day is perfectly legit for hair. tried it myself.

no side effects just more hair since it increases PGE2.

How long did you use it for? I have some and when using it (pretty inconsistently) thought my hair looked a little better but I never really looked into the mechanism of how it works so thought it was probs just placebo and stopped. Guess no harm in trying it again since theirs some scientific basis for it working like u say.

Where do you even get that from. Also isn’t it bad for your gut micro biome

amazon or pharmacy JFL.
No idea about the micro biome, but i’d take an oil orally over a medication any day.

Is it worth taking it if I’m on oral minox already?

no, you’ll get more hair growth if you want that. but at a certain point, too much is too much.

this was minox + oral castor for a month

I take oral I don’t drink topically.

I doubt the hair growth would be that much I’ve been on oral minox for 3 months and I haven’t had that much growth on it
 
@Thebuffdon fyi i don’t use minox or castor anymore.

I don’t think it reduces ur collagen I don’t see why it would
 
enough anecdotes of me included to believe it does IMO.
I doubt it. I guess it depends on what form you take also. But idk

I just don’t see why it would scientifically

if you went back in time 2 years would you use oral castor and skip oral minox?
 
idk

That’s for topical mainly

Even then there’s been no study to prove it, I just looked it up. It’s mainly pseudoscience at most. I think you’re good if you hop on oral
