Damn. How long have you been using +10mg and what are your results like? Cheers
Over a month only on this high dosage. I see vellus hairs on hairline has darkened abit. Very Early days Still. I use the topical minoxidill put some drops in a capsule and swallow twice daily. And put under tongue once daily a few drops.

Damn nicee. How is ur progress now? I guess it will take time.

I think i will slow down my dosage to 2.5 mg every other day. Should i do it? Go from 5 mg every day to 2.5 mg every other day?

Are you getting growth all over your body?

Same here, this is my goal. I have started putting 5 drops of 5% topical into a capsule and swallowing. I think it gets destroyed in your stomach if you just drink it.

Good that u followed my advice about the capsule. I put 11 drops twice daily lol. Im extreme.
Yeah, that is a lot. If I go too high, my face looks bloated and I get lower leg edema. But seeing tons of new growth all over with this. Head hair and beard are much thicker.

I also fill capsules with miox using a droper . Very easy to do .

I will not go that extreme but for sure i will change my oral to topical and drink it. Is much cheaper and easier to get topical than Oral and if drinking and taking pills gives same result, haha i will do it.

I changed my regime btw yesterday and take 2.5 mg every third day. That means 0,833 every day. I guess it will have have negative effect on my progress
