Losing My Frontal Hair Line, So Afraid :(

[neddy2016]

Update - I think i am noticing an improvement with my bone and joints, they don't seem to be cracking and popping all that much now, and i ain't sure if its due to the supplements i am taking or something else but so far so good in that area.

Although recently i started getting mild chest ache on my left side aswell as arm and back so i lowered the minoxidil dose to 0.50 the last 2 days.

I sound like a Hypochondriac but honestly this is confusing me as much as anyone else

I dunno whats going on with my body right now

Fun Update - I visited the doctor a week ago to tell him i was using these products as i thought it was probably he knew and i hoped it would help with the joint issues buthe said minoxidil couldn't do it so he just gave me an appointment for a electrocardiogram because he said my blood pressure was quite high.

So i went to the hospital yesterday to get it done and ended up there for 8 hours having tests because my heart rate was "adnormal" for my age.

I told them i was taking minoxidil and that might be what it was but they said no minoxidil shouldn't be able to do that... i told them that was a side effect but they kept doing tests neither way, injections here and there.

By the end they said everything seemed fine but the abnormality is still odd and if it is the minoxidil i should stop taking it.

So yeah that wasn't fun, and i am now spooked enough to probably stop minoxidil

For a product thats easy to get and not under prescription no doctor seems to have any clue about minoxidil or what it does.

Its only Minoxidil dude. Guys all ages been slapping it on for years. I think you show signs of being a hypochondriac. Over thinking the whole thing and getting placebo sides..

Haven't used minoxidil for a week and i feel better, no chest pains and no joint cracking anymore.

Hospital said to stay off minoxidil till i have an echo scan next wednesday.

I don't think i am a hypochondriac, infact if anything i am probably one of these people who have way to much faith in these products helping and being confused when they don't work.

I have always been physically fit, infact there are people younger then me who go through more aches and pains then i ever had in my whole life time... but when i do get them they do stand out as odd and its certainly not in my head

I feel like maybe all our bodies work differently and so react differently to these meds and i wish i understood mine better... perhaps i have always had very high testosterone which would actually explain alot in my life in terms of why i don't put on weight very well and why i have more physical energy then i know what to do with most of the time.

Anyway still receding, taking finasteride still... have very low hopes at this point

One word, Darolutamide.

"Only 2 weeks on half a 1mg tab of finasteride"

Some peoples had regrowth after 2 years on combination finasteride and minoxidil!If you cant go with side effects such as sexual side effects or cognitive side effects just consider about topical finasteride to buy one.Second generation was here so it wont go systematically and just stay on scalp.It has active ingredients that blocks finasteride to crush your DHT levels.But stay on DHT blocker as for maintance of your hair.So you will need to drop your collection with at least minoxidil to see somehow results.

Topical minoxidil is nothing than oral Loniten.Very little is absorbed into body.It may lower your pressure or dizziness yes but you cant have serious heart problems from it unlike if youre cardiac patient.

whats that?

Topical minoxidil is nothing than oral Loniten.Very little is absorbed into body.It may lower your pressure or dizziness yes but you cant have serious heart problems from it unlike if youre cardiac patient.

But then why are some of the side effects listed often heart related?

Dare i say it i did notice an ache on the left side of my chest which got me a little concerned and and since i stopped taking Minoxidil its gone and my heart rate has gone down too.

I was asked by hospital to stay off it till i had a few more tests as they were concerned about it being irregular but my heart is apparently fine so they said i could still use minoxidil but they said personally they would advice to try something else.
