Minoxidil, how to deal with side effects

[bimaximum]

Minoxidil really works. I also used it myself, unfortunately though, it destroyed my skin and also my eye area to a certain degree. Also my body has become more weak and my bones creak easily. I have most likely an issue with collagen now. Did you experience any side-ffects so far?

Same side effects here. That's crazy how much this sides are overlooked. When I started to use it so much people commented that i looked tired and doctor thought I had a diagnosis because of hypotension.
But I continue to use it, since it's filling my beard like nothing else.
Basically all the sides are caused by hypotension (and probably alcohol), which is a really bad thing.
To avoid them, I do :
- Apply 0.5ml once/day (sometimes 2x0.5ml). Maybe the results won't come as fast but I feel like it's going great. 2ml/day is way too much, for me at least.
- Eat salt. Known to cause hypertension. For healthy sources, enjoy bacon, seafruits.
- Keeping skin healthy/hydrated + sunscreen.
- Sports. I don't know if it really helps with hypotension, but I'm feeling less and less dizzy everytime.
- Cold af shower to increase blood circulation on the face.
- NoFap to an extent. I believe it helps raising your energy.
- Break for 2/3 days when I feel weak.
I'm sharing this so people can see you don't have to follow the instructions religiously to see results.
I suppose and hope the body develop tolerance overtime, and it seems that everybody reacts differently, but I think that doing it very long term, or forever would be bad for anybody. If your balding, stop the cope. Get your plane to Turkey asap.

My beard stopped growing 3 years ago and never got full (3cm gap from cheeks to moustache).
Minox fixed it in a couple months. I also have more density.
I don’t experience sides anymore with my method.
It’s one of the most legit softmax there is.

thank you brah

I am actually doing most of it, besides cold showers. I know, that plenty of people think it is a meme, yet again, there are even people competing in it. Taking cold showers is good.
By the way, I am also consuming Collagen from MyProtein. I am also looking for a bone marrow supplement. So if you have any good supplements for it, let me know.

I have also noticed during no fap, that my beard became a bit thicker. So, that is also thing.

Or for a beard.

High IQ gymcel. Don't buy from my protein tho, it's known to be shit quality. Prozis is slightly better and cheap enough. Idk much about bone marrow supplement but I heard about vitamin K2. I'm not sure that's what you're looking for.

Someone here was allergic to minox, or had more serious skin changes?

I actually just wanted to try out collagen from MyProtein. It also did not do much, unfortunately. And for vitamin D3, I will go for the typical combination with vitamin D3.

I take collegen & only minox 4 x week. Seems to be fine.

Well yes, collagen supplements won't do shit for your skin. It helps with recovery and promote good health for tendons, ligaments et articulations. It's one of the most high IQ supplement for gymcels on the long term

As I said, it seems that everybody reacts differently. Good for you

Scary sides tbh I asked the dude you quoted and his eye area stayed like that for a long time and hasn't fully recovered yet. My eye area is my biggest halo so that scares me but I need thicker eyebrows.
I think I'm gonna apply 0.5ml on eyebrows and 0.5ml with smashed finasteride pills on the scalp

How much time after he stopped ?
You don't need to use a lot if it's only for eyebrows, the difference is minor especially if you use less than 1ml/day. If you have a good support around the eyes then it shouldn't be too bad.
The best way to know is to try yourself, remember that many don't experience any sides, and even if you do it will recover with time.

Idk he said a long time.
I actually lack a bit of undereye support but nothing too bad. Should I put less on the eyebrows? Tbh I was thinking about putting some on the beard too

The point of the thread is that it will work as long as you put some, but be prepared to see result later than others if you apply less. Just go gradually
You'll see that 0.2ml flood an entire eyebrow

after seeing CDNUTS guide I believe the best way to deal with minnox is to do some steroids after ur cycle or go on TRT perma

Minox goes systemic → lowers blood pressure → gives you symptoms of hypotension which includes looking like a corpse apparently.
But I think this guy was just very unlucky. If you don't put too much you should be fine
