Oral Minoxidil for Hair Loss

[Nelson Vergel]

I had exactly the same effect , and went back to topical just in upper head.

Same here. Using Rogained Foam in the morning and this product from Empower Pharmacy at night:

Hair Restore Ultra Scalp Solution – Empower Pharmacy

Update after 4 months of daily dosing:

Head hair; slight improvement but not by much.

Body hair: dramatic growth (unwanted)

I do not recommend oral minoxidil to women or men who are already hairy. Results on scalp hair were not worth it. Would it work better in younger men? Who knows!

I stopped it. My eyebrows, nose, ear, and genital hair have gone nuts.

Sorry to weigh in late on this thread, but what oral dose were you taking, Nelson? 5mg?
I'm wondering if those of us who have high bp and are already on diuretics for it could safely take a higher dose (while of course being on the lookout for edema, etc)

I was taking 5 mg a day for at least 3 months. I have high BP (treated successfully) and experienced no water retention. Hair grew everywhere but where I wanted it (scalp)

I bought mine from Medsbase: https://medsbase.com/lonitab/
