How do you deal with not getting sleep? It’s killing me

Even at 1.125mg I’m starting to wake up early randomly again. I may just stop. It’s Annoying. This is my second time trying oral minoxidil. Insomnia is going to get me to stop again. Is oral minoxidil 3x per week afffective?

I have the exact same issue with oral minoxidil. I would wake up at 3am brain felt wired, awake and I couldn’t go back to sleep. I can kind of tolerate 1.15mg but when I go up to 2.5 or 5mg I’m up at 230 3am every morning. I would take om in the morning hoping it would wear off at night. I would...

Has anyone tried latanoprost for eye brow growth?

Einstein I'm curious what strength and how much RU you've found to be effective? I also have used RU and the 8% solution I bought was effective but I'm curious if it's overkill. Curious what your thoughts are. Thansk

Yeah it just makes my brain feel wired.. I'll just wake up at like 3 4 am and my mind is just awake. Very weird

Bump

I'm curious about latanoprost Can you confirm what strength you're using 0.05%? And how much are you applying to your head?

I've been on oral minoxidil 2.5mg for 2 months. Was using topical 5% without much results. I'm going through a shed right now so I'm hoping this is a good sign that it's working. No blood pressure, water retention or heart rate issues.

Anyone feel like they don't sleep as well or as long as they normally do when on oral minoxidil? Haven't been sleeping well and trying to figure out if it's the OM. I take 2.5mg in the morning. I wear a fitbit so I know its not affecting my heart rate during day or when I sleep. Blood pressure isn't...

Does anyone know of a doctor that will provide a scrip for OM?

Why do you think your Scalp itches? Mine does not itch.. Just lots of hair lost in the shower and bathroom floor... Do you know any members on here that have reported sheds and a good recovery? Was trying to find some posts like that for piece of mind

How many hairs a day would you say you're shedding? I'm pretty new to this forum but i feel like there should be a thread that collects everyone's OM shed experience AND the final outcome.... i see a lot of folks discussing their shed phase but then you never hear from them several months later...

dark circles under the eye is caused by vasodilation of the blood vessels which is what OM does. i get the same thing when i use cialis. it opens up the blood vessels so you see more red under the skin. as we age we have less fat under the eye and skin is thinner. use retin a, get HA...

I've been on oral minoxidil 2.5mg for 5 weeks now, still shedding... Been on 1mg finasteride for 1yr. Curious how long this shed will continue... Kind of a drag...
