Does anybody have experiene with oral minoxidil compared to topical + dermapen for eyebrow gains?
Main reason im asking is because I have death tier sparse eyebrows and mainly cares abt them. Wouldnt mind longer lashes, thicker hair, and more body hair but wouldnt do it if doesnt give better eyebrow growth gains than topical.
Edit*
I have seen gains with topical minoxidil + castor oil, but I have been on it for 2+ years, and im not where i want to be

Which one did you use
My minox aint do shit for my eyebrows idk why
Its not the brand, that matters, its the same molecule on your skin. The difference is that an enzyme, minoxidil sulfotransferase, has to break down minoxidil to minoxidil sulfate, so when you're applying it topically, it will only work if those enzymes are there on your skin to convert minoxidil, which is probably different from person to person.

Idk why you would do that, I can only see it effectively lowering the concentration, but then again if everything still gets absorbed it shouldnt matter. Probably doesnt do anything postive or too negative.
