Is Spironolactone potentially dangerous?

[Dannie]

Spironolactone can cause gastrointestinal problems fairly often. Since it also affects steroid receptors elsewhere in the body, it can cause gynecomastia, menstrual irregularities and testicular atrophy. Other side effects include ataxia, impotence, drowsiness and rashes. A carcinogenic effect has been demonstrated in rats. [2]

Is it really that good for receeding hairlines and worth of risk?

I think that refers to oral spironolactone.

Probably, but I'm most concerned about that "carcinogenic effect" in rats. Poor rats

This is solely for the oral spironolactone users. There is one guy here that is using it without problem though.

Strangely enough that crap isn't in "his regimen".
