Been drinking Minoxidil for 2 years now with great results.
>long-time fin enjoyer, stopped loss but didn't regrow much
>never used topical min consistently due to aesthetics. I have decent mid-length hair with minor diffuse thinning. The whole point is to make your hair look good, but the foam/liquid just fucks up your shit. It's also difficult to get it directly on the scalp instead of on your hair, which leaves you with greasy hair that defeats the whole purpose.
>ingredients of topical min liquid are min, ethanol, propylene glycol, and purified water. Ethanol and propylene glycol are already in your food in far greater quantities than we're talking here.
>2 drops twice a day gives 0.5 mg
>not 2 ml you fucking retard, but literally two drops from a standard 1 ml dropper
>b-b-b-but you'll have a heart attack! yeah, that's why they used to prescribe up to 40 mg/day for high blood pressure.
>Great results. Not only some regrow after 5+ years of no regrow, but all my existing hair is thicker than ever.

Jellus much?

Might try this if regrowth from topical fin+min starts stalling. Right now I think there's still lots of gains to be made through normie methods for me.

I've been drinking minoxidil as well. For one, topical application is just too much of a pain in the ass. It's annoying trying to get it on your whole scalp, it just makes your hair look shitty and greasy, and it resulted in me being very inconsistent with actually applying it twice a day every day.

That and apparently like half of people can't even benefit from topical minoxidil because it relies on a certain enzyme to be present in sufficient quantities in the scalp in order to activate it. But if you ingest it, it gets activated in the liver and then works that way, no fuss

Based minox imbiber. Btw to the midwits here, you may be asking why not get minox pills? The answer is... you can. But it's an inconvenience since they require a prescription. The cost of pills is very low, but the cost of liquid minox is effectively zero. A couple of generic liquid 60 mL bottles will last you all year and don't require a prescription.
>>
>>77268441
Yup. And when I was using it topically, I would end up blowing through minoxidil because there was absolutely no way I was able to actually apply properly with only 1mL because most of it just got soaked up into my hair rather than the scalp. I was constantly having to buy more.

Now I buy a pack and it lasts me at least a year. Only time I ever need to buy more is when the bottles literally expire because it lasts so long.

Smart man. Btw, you can you almost all expired drugs far, far, FAR after the expiration date. Do your own research, but expiration dates are are a laughable atttempt for (((them))) to earn more shekels. They do a half-assed measurement of how much a drug has 'degraded', and if it's 'degraded' by a couple percent, time to throw it out and (((buy))) more! It's like if a 100 calorie food only has 95 calories after 3 years and 90 after 10 years, and they tell you to throw it out rather than, you know, get 95% of the benefit or maybe eat 5% more. In the 90s they found a ton of WW2 drug storage and tested the drugs' efficacy to find they were still perfectly good.
>>
>>77268476
Oh I know. But at that point I'm needing to buy new minox so infrequently that it doesn't even matter.

All I needed to hear bro. I used to have luscious kings of Leon hair, now that shit is starting to get like the carpet next to the radiator, but not in the front not in the back, but just in the middle. So I live in America where do I get this oral minoxidil you describe
>>
>>77268180
My nigga. I do the same. Easy, cheap works.

>>77268441
You dont need a prescription though, or at least its not hard to get.

Hims, Keeps, and Numan and other places do a basic questionaire without meeting a GP or using pics - at least here in UK. You literally just tick a bunch of boxes and thats it, goes to a doctor to look over, and then gets delivered. Thats how it went for me. Dont even have MPB, but still scared of it. Lied on the questionaire, and now get fin + min + some vitamin stack delivered every month for just below £30.
>>
>>77269217
And the fin and min are pill forms to add.
>>
OP here: glad to see some other sensible posters here.

Also: do dermarolling. It definitely doesn't have the same evidence behind it as fin+minox, but it probably helps and has no side effects so it's worth doing 1x or 2x per week.

>>77268387
real enthusiasts ask for the suppository, because why should hair treatment not be a good time too?
>>
>>77268180
to anyone reading this, op is trying to fucking kill you. dont do this.

What does it mean when attractive women finally start noticing you and flirting with you but it took until you're 26 and you don't feel the same level of excitement you would've if it was during highschool? I feel a strange sense of bitter resentment towards Lady luck for making me wait so long but I guess I shouldn't complain since some guys never get women catcalling them
