    Considering stopping Minoxidil looking for alternatives

    Hold on, I'm being dumb, what bothers me most about topical minoxidil is the flaking. I just found this propylene glycol free topical minoxidil which should solve the problem https://minoxidilexpress.com/product/regrowth-m5-no-pg-5-minoxidil/ Seems like they replaced propylene glycol with...

    Considering stopping Minoxidil looking for alternatives

    I think I might give oral minoxidil a shot after all. I've tried skipping a few topical minoxidil uses and I clearly notice my scalp is stiffer when I do it. Also Regenepure seems to have a different action mechanism so it's unlikely to replace minoxidil in its job. I considered cetirizine but...

    Ok so how do you get your oral minoxidil ? Can you just buy it somewhere or do you need to get a prescription for Lonoten ? (I guess 5mg and cutting tablets in half) I'm also considering to use Revivogen's Scalp therapy, can anyone provide feedback on it ? Thanks

    Considering stopping Minoxidil looking for alternatives

    Well I didn't know, thanks for telling me. Does that mean that minoxidil easily goes systemic too ? Because I hear oral minoxidil may be more effective (and probably wouldn't grease hair) but it can cause some cardiac side effects. Is there any product you would recommend to replace minoxidil ...

    Considering stopping Minoxidil looking for alternatives

    Hello guys, I'm long time hair loss sufferer and I've been using Minoxidil 5% for several years. I also take yeast supplements which I think have helped with maintenance. I've also seen significant benefits from doing some scalp massages (by myself) for stimulation (feels like Minoxidil works...
