I've read that minoxidil can cause facial bloating, whether taken orally or topically, so I've decided to quit using it to see if I notice any improvements in my face.
source: The truth about Minoxidil - The holy grail or overhyped Looksmin?

I'm currently around 20% bf and noticeably bloated, so I want to find out if the roundness in my face is due to minoxidil or if I'm just too fat. I plan to keep doing cardio and gymmaxxing, but first I need to see firsthand if minoxidil is the cause and from there I will consider if it's worth the hair growth on my eyebrows and lashes.

how long after quitting minoxidil should I expect to see the full effects, if it was causing the bloating? should I track my weight during this time for reference as well?

I lost 7lb of pure water after stopping minox in like 2 weeks but 20% bf is also basically obese so that’s apart of it too

yeah 20% bf is obese anything above like 15% is death tier for your looks you need to get to 12% minimum also your probably underestimating your body fat if ur 20% ur probably more like 25
