Topical Minoxidil: is it really that bad?
-
@Chud The least crazy option for hair loss I've seen was a hairline tattoo and buzzing it. Of course you're committing to a certain style then, and tattoo ink isn't healthy but it seems the least insane and expensive option.
-
@Chud You may be advised to start anti-androgen therapy (Finasteride, Dutasteride) to prevent loss of transplanted hairs. For obvious reasons any medication of that kind should be strictly avoided.
-
@CO3 I wouldn't do it personally though, just rock that thing and focus on your health

Drinking the monixidil liquid version of it = me eyelashes grew 2/3x the size, i really like thaat
I love minoxidil!

@Chud I don't know much about transplants but maybe they are effective and reliable these days.
I always dose my B vitamins and eat my eggs at different meals to minimize the loss of biotin.
To get the most out of your dermarolling, you might try a serrapeptase + nattokinase pill. Solaray makes a decent one and it is excellent to pair it with vit K supplementation.
I suggest this partly because of my own curiosity though! I took the Solaray and a few other brands for several months and saw scars all over my body reduce in size and redness (they did not disappear). You do need to follow the dosage guidelines and take the enzymes only on an empty stomach or else they will not work.

I also tried drinking the solution but more than 3 drops and I almost faint while having heart palpitations.
- how many drops are you taking ?
- how long did it take for visible eyelash change ?
- any side effect ?

Make sure to get a FUE hair transplant and it'll probably look good if the doctor is good.
I think you have to think about potential negative effects from minoxidil vs stress/feeling bad about being bald. Aspirin may also reduce the effectiveness quite a bit if you're unlucky. You probably only need to use it once daily after a while since the half life in skin is about 22h. Also I doubt you'll be able to stop using it and keep the hair, havn't seen anyone keep the gains after a year. Might be worth considering if you're gonna do a hair transplant.
Also only use topical, pill can be very dangerous.
