I've been experiencing some on liquid rogaine and hav been applying 0.5mL to each temple twice a day. The bloating was very minor at first but its a little worst now on day 4, not really visually noticeable to another person but I can feel it. It reminds me of when i swelled up from getting wisdom teeth taken out lol but definitely not as bad swelling as that.
Also is sleep on my left side and feel more bloating on that side of my face.

a.)Do these symptoms go away eventually similar to finasteride side effects?
b.)Its only been 4 days should i hang in there or decrease the amount i use?
c.)SHould i consider a switch to foam?
d.)Is there anything i can do to ease swelling? I.e does drinking water help and how does Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) help if it does? Is it available in some sort of medication/pill?
e.) i hear its due to having a low blood pressure, does it mean i should attempt to increase it somehow? ex aerobic exersize. although i think im being farfetched lol

thanks for any insight guys

ah yikes sorry to hear that man. Is it probably best to do apply once in the mornig then again at night as opposed to afternoon and night to prevent potential side effects of overdosing even though u wait 4 hours?

i'll be honest. i've been putting on 1.5 amount of minoxidil on my head for about..5 months now maybe slightly less. And honestly i havn't had a single side effect from it.

IMO if you get sides from it, you should stop using it. Some peoples get sides and some don't unfortuently. I mean if my face bloated up i guess i would just stop.

My bloating seems to have gone away and comes around but very very slightly every now and then. It was jus kinda bad one time night when i didnt get much sleep for sum reason=S HOwever the odd thing is i feel it mostly on one side of my face and it happens to be the side where minoxidil is appearing to be more effective, strange..
