I've been using topical minoxidil on my hair and recently my eyebrows, but since I'm experiencing diffuse thinning everywhere it's a hassle to apply the topical minoxidil across my entire scalp, and I don't even know if I've applied fully. Apparently topical minoxidil only works for 20% of people anyway..
Hence, I'm looking to switch to oral minoxidil.
However, I've heard horror stories that it bloats you like crazy. I'm also weary of using minoxidil, as I'd rather just get a hair transplant and not be reliant on the minoxidil for the rest of my life, but I don't think hair transplants can really help diffuse thinning much anyway.
Anyways, should I switch from topical to oral or is topical better for reduced bloating?
