I have had terrible heart arrhythmia to the point where i woke up in the midlle of the night anxious and sweating profusely when i was using 7% minoxidil topical combined with dermarolling. So there is definitely a threshold of how much minoxidil can be absorbed into the bloodstream before you get heart issues. Now i'm back to 2,5% minoxidil topical and no dermarolling.

Thank u for the information. What is your opinion regarding the claim that you should take a break of about 3 weeks, after every 3 months of using oral min and also after oral fin ? Is it necessary to take a break from time to time, using these pills?

Started to grow excess hair on my body so went back to topical, prefer the tablet but wasnt ok for me, would of looked like teen wolf if i kept going with it

The difference is that black label. Finasteride does not have the potential to affect your heart the way that oral minoxidl does. Losing your libido is one thing but your heart is one of the most important organs you have and heart disease is the leading cause of death in developed countries. What is the long term effects of oral minoxidil on your heart. So imo, oral minoxidal is a valid option but I would never treat it as the same level of danger as finasteride or as easily recommend it to others.

My insurance didn’t cover it 😢. Luckily, it’s only $8 a month out of pocket.

It's up to us, the professional patients, to tell people about oral minoxidil. I have to laugh when people say "ask your physician" about oral minoxidil because almost every medical professional I've spoken to has never heard of it. If you're lucky, you might find a good dermatologist or hair transplant surgeon who knows what oral minoxidil is. The average person on Internet hair loss forums knows more about off-label hair loss drugs than 90 percent of doctors. As for its safety, it's not approved for hair loss, but it is approved for hypertension. People have been using Loniten in higher doses (some people with high blood pressure use 40mg) since 1979. If it gave people abrupt heart attacks and made them drop like flies, wouldn't we know about it by now? People refuse to learn from history and instead, they listen to people who fear monger. The fear mongering is as bad as it is from the post-finasteride syndrome group. They think that finasteride causes suicide, depression, liver damage and permanent side effects.

You want to take this drug fine go ahead no one can stop you, No one can stop you either from putting a gun to your head and blowing your brains out that’s your choice as well, just don’t try and make this drug out to be a healthy option for hair loss sufferers because it isn’t, it is a highly unstable drug that can cause lasting and irreversible effects to your cardiovascular system maybe not right away but then again you’re proposing to take this drug for as long as you want your hair which could mean 10, 15 or 20 years but I doubt you’ll be around that long anyway mate so go ahead take the gamble! I can’t believe there are so many Desperate people who will Go to any lengths to preserve their hair even if it means the high potential of heart disease which kills more people in the world than cancer! One last thing to remember once you’re diagnosed with congenital heart disease you will be on blood thinners and statins for the rest of your life you also have a higher risk of stroke all these things still don’t put you off taking this drug then you might need to see somebody regarding your mental state as only someone who is completely retarded would take these kind of risks just to keep their hair, you are A very stupid man who is being influenced by a pair of idiots on a KZread channel who have about as much grasp of The true medical long-term outcome of taking this drug as a recess monkey!

You will probably do well. I've heard of people using only a 0.2mg dose of finasteride in order to avoid side effects but keep their hair. It's best if you take the pill, stop thinking about it and go about your day. Keep yourself busy with work or a hobby that requires a lot of focusing. It will make you stop thinking about meds. When I started finasteride, I read too many Internet stories and made myself paranoid about side effects. Don't make the same mistake I did.

Been on fin for a almost a year. Looking back and is insane how much hair has returned. I have a photo of when I first noticed it (I was on PEDs at that time) and the difference is massive. Is is way thicker, grows faster, and the hairline has stabilize but didn’t lower as much as I wanted to. So now I’m hoping on oral minoxidil after being on topical for about 4 months. I just the best regrowth and what’s better than to start it now. Heard way more success stories on Oral that than topical which for me has been pretty normal. Not a hyper responder but I was getting really decent regrowth on me temple. It regrew a ton of vellus hair at my hairline, and it made my black hair even darker. Hopefully I respond well to it, so far with topical hasn’t been an issue especially since I been using it daily for 2 years now since I been using it for facial hair which was great. Legit didn’t have shit before definitely try it if you’re baby face.

If you’re sure you have no hair loss genes in your immediate family and you are not having any hair thinning then you don’t need to take it. Otherwise I would always suggest taking it, because it’s insurance against you losing your hair.

I'm 58 and no bald spots but I've noticed my hair thinning quite a bit. It's been a gradual process. I started noticing in my late 40's it seemed to be accelerating. I know it happens with age. It's getting too thin for my liking. I'm also very nervous of trying oral minoxidil. Finasteride as well. I've read too many bad stories on KZread and Reddit. I've never knew you could have heart issues using topical. Even at my age I train in Martial Arts and weight train. i do very intense cardio. I wonder if it's safe. I posted a comment on another KZread channel about hair loss and I received a comment 'You're 58 what do you care if you're losing your hair" Wait until that guy gets older You don't stop caring what you look like lol. I look better with hair, some guys look great bald. Not sure what to do but I'd like to do something. Another channel a guy posted he had great results with Saw Palmetto and topical Minoxidil. There is so much conflicting info. Thanks for the video.
