Will I Grow More Body Hair While Taking Minoxidil?

[NNocim]

I am already quite hairy and I don't want to become a bear...

Some people report it, although I haven't noticed it on myself, and I usually use at least 2x the recommended dosage

My guess is you'd have to be using absurdly high amounts that were going systematic for this to be an issue

Also keep in mind, way easier to remove excess hair you don't want than to regrow hair on your male pattern baldness areas

Increased body hair growth should be minor, if at all. If anything, expect the hairs on your hands and maybe forearms to grow a mm or two longer. If you are applying at the hairline your eyebrows may get a little thicker too.

I've been using minoxidil around 7 years and noticed nothing significant aside from the effects noted above, and I am someone with chest hair, thick beard, etc.

Has it maintained your hair?
