hey guys, its me again.
i haven't posted here in maybe 2 weeks?
i want to give an update to all of those who wanted one from my last thread.

little backstory to those who don't know.

basically i took minoxidil 5% foam twice a day for 2 weeks and it gave me some pretty bad sexual side effects;
ED
no sex drive
no morning wood
no nighttime wood
shrunken flacid penis (feels softer and lighter, however hangs lower than before, very bizzare)
watery cum/less volume
orgasms do not feel as enjoyable
premature ejaculation

i had more side effects, but they have subsided, these are the ones that remain

so anyways, its been 3 months since i used minoxidil last, since june 12th, and my erections have gotten stronger and my cum has gone white again, however my sex drive is still low and i rarely get morning and nocturnal erections.

however there is one thing i find very strange and concerning, is that my flacid penis has shrunk in terms of girth and is much skinnier, but it doesn't stop there, it also hangs lower than before, it hangs perhaps at 4-5 inches, when before it was only 3 inches roughly. could someone tell me is this because it doesn't have much blood in it? why does it hang so low? when i shake it, it gets even longer however stays flacid.

im 21, 170lbs 13% BF and 5'11 ft,
i know people are going to try and tell me these problems are not from minoxidil and that they are in my head or from something else, but i only got these problems when i started minoxidil. it seems like a reoccurring theme with some people, it seems like it effects a small minority.

(i am not trying to scare people from using minoxidil, i know these side effects are rare and uncommon, and most people will not get these side effects, please don't undermine my situation because you think these things are impossible,

http://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20834&name=ROGAINE%20EXTRA%20STRENGTH%20(FOR%20MEN)

anyways, could someone give me some insight on why my dick hangs so low?
>>
>>38712446
bump
>>
>>38712518
bump.

i also experienced sexual side effects from minox. it dont hapoen to everyone but its def playing the penis version of Russian roulette. its unfortunate we must choose our penis or our hair.
>>
>>38712578
bro please tell me are you okay now? how long did you use it for and have you recovered yet bro?
>>
>>38712591
full recovery. although i sometimes feel its tougher to get a rsgung 110 boner. propecia fucked me up for two years many years ahi but recoverd from that too. its unfortunate these products fuck with our manhood.
>>
>>38712719
oh my god bro, that is great news, im sure time will help your boners get stronger my dude, gives me a great smile knowing you recovered. how long did it take to recover and did your dick happen to shrink too? so glad you recovered from propecia bro, many do not

Idk man. I've been taking 5% foam twice a day, for a month. And I NEED to fap at least 4 times a day to feel barely satisfied. I've also been getting boners non stop, one like every 2-3 hours.
>>
>>38712750
yeah bro most people dont get effected sexually from minoxidil. you will be fine, i do not think the stuff is bad, i just think its bad for some people, very glad you're doing well with that stuff, god bless

I've used the CVS version of this product for going on 3 years now

No sides besides sometimes a random hair grows out of an odd spot

Its probably not the minoxidil its not reported But it does change blood pressure slightly
>>
>>38712797
no it was the minoxidil, got these sides as soon as i used this product, im a healthy 21 year old boy... there is literally no reason to have these problems. listen, there are hundreds of other guys describing same side effects from minoxidil, just cause you dont suffer from these sides, does not mean others will not
>>
>>38712749
propecia took two years for a full recovery. rogaine i was fine in a couple of months. used lits of zinc tribulus vit d and arginine.
>>
>>38712446

Seen the complaint enough that I don't doubt it, but never personally felt any impact in the slightest. Why the difference?
>>
been taking it for 4 months and have had no side effects. Noticeable grown at my temples
>>
I've heard of this before.

I've got a series of questions for you. The answers to which may help diagnose your issues.

Does you dick hang low?
Does it wobble to and fro?
Can you tie it in a knot?
Can you tie it in a bow?
Can you throw it over your shoulder like a continental soldier?
>>
>>38712446
>i haven't posted here in maybe 2 weeks
it was a nice two weeks not having to see your shitty fucking threads
>>
>>38713218
some people are just more sensitive to these drugs than others i suppose.

>>38713253
you should be fine bro, probably like 1% or even 0.5% of people suffer from sexual side effects of minoxidil
>>
>>38712797
Does this shit actually work?
>>
>>38713269
yes
yes
no
no
no
>>
>>38712446
There's no way in hell that Minoxidil gave you ED. If anything it'd give you stronger erections due to the vasodilation effect it has if it gets absorbed systemically.

The only thing Minoxidil gave me was lightheadedness that subsided after two weeks of use.

You're sure you weren't taking Finasteride?
>>
>>38712446
Which "head" are you putting it on?
>>
>>38713690
used it only once a day first week, only noticed drop of libido first week, 2nd week i started twice a day and thats when my ED started and destroyed my libido and gave me bad brainfog/heart palpatations

>>38713683
http://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20834&name=ROGAINE%20EXTRA%20STRENGTH%20(FOR%20MEN)

it did give me all these things, just because it didnt give u these side effects doesnt mean it wont give other ppl these side effects, keep an open minded ...
>>
>>38713850
Seems like a bunch of hypochondriac fucks who blame everything wrong in their life on Minoxidil.

Just lol @ those who claim that Minoxidil gave them depression and puffy nipples. It's not a 5-ar inhibitor.
>>
>>38713923
i got severe depression/brainfog/emotional numbness in the first 1-2 months coming off this shit, it is real lol. its very real, its really fucked my life up, nothing hypochondriac about it, where theres smoke theres fire. i dont understand how it did this to me, cause yea its not a 5AR inhibiter so it doest seem impossible in theory, but this shit has effected lots of men such as my self
>>
>>38714029
so it does seem impossible in theory*
>>
>>38714029
I'll tell you what causes depression: Male pattern baldness.
>>
>>38714108
nah, i wasnt depressed about my receeding hairline, it wasnt that big of a deal for me. this was a very strange disconnected feeling, feeling emotionally numb to everything, it took a few weeks to go away, its very scary. it felt extremely unnatural
>>
>>38712446
I thought it was only finasteride that caused sexual side effects.

I've been doing Minoxidil for a year now and honestly I've been having sexual dysfunction lately. Is this shit real or just coincidence?
>>
>>38714766
could very well be caused by minoxidil, theres plenty of people saying after a year+ they started getting side effects from minoxidil. i thought it was only from finastride too, thats why i decided to use minoxidil.... what kind of sexual dysfunction have you been experiencing? describe it all, loss of nocturnal and morning erections? any shrinkage? premature ejaculation? watery cum? just make a list
>>
>>38714809

Most noticeable was erectile dysfunction. Like I'd be ready to go the second stuff got frisky but after a while we'd be naked and I'd be getting head and it wouldn't be up yet. A few months ago went on vacay, got with a cutie, we got naked...nothing. Embarrassing af.

Premature too...I recently took a while to get it up then seriously came the second I got it in.

And more generally a loss of libido. Which has been strangely depressing.

I literally talked to my doc about it this week. He said it was probably psychosomatic, gave me some cialis, and said I could come get my test checked.

Fuck I don't know what to do.
>>
>>38714867
its minoxidil bro, 100%. sounds like my story exactly, get off it immediately. its not in your head, everyone will deny the fact that minoxidil can cause these things, and will just dismiss it as in your head, but its not, ive been to 4 doctors including a uroligist and they have no idea how minoxidil can give you ED but it definitely does, there are too many people out there with ED from minox to deny
>>
>>38714867
how do your orgasms feel when you cum? do they feel alot weaker than usual?
>>
>>38714971

I feel like it's helped my hair a lot. I'm 25. My hair isn't great, but it was looking absolutely shitty before. I dunno man.
>>
>>38714867
at the moment currently talking to 3 guys who are going exactly what we are from minoxidil, 1 guy took it for 1 month and a half, has been suffering from ED, nolibido, no morning/nighttime wood, premature ejaculation, water retention, weak urine stream

other guy took it for 2 weeks, used it on his beard/head been off it for 2 months and a half been suffering from ED, muscle wastage, depression but his libido is fine

3rd guy been taking it for a month, been off it for a week and a half, been suffering from ED, no libido, depression/anxiety/insomnia/heart palpitations/muscle spasms
>>
>>38714983
>>38715005

Idk, orgasms feel about the same, at least nothing noticeable. And cum is about the same too I think, nothing too watery. Definitely a decrease in morning/evening wood and random boners. Although I've been getting a few in the morning because I've started fapping right before I go to bed, despite low libido.

I should mention I've been taking it for a year, but about half dose or less, just once a day, sometimes miss days, and I've been doing the regular liquid, not foam.
>>
>>38715019
http://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20834&name=ROGAINE%20EXTRA%20STRENGTH%20(FOR%20MEN)

alot of guys who have been using it for a year even small doses still suffer from these side effects also, also your bloodwork will be fine, ive done 3 blood tests all my hormones/vitamins/minerals are in order, but im still fucked up.. how is this so? so did all the guys i spoke to aswell, all their bloodwork came out normal. minox does something to your body that will not show up in blood work.
>>
>>38715038
If I stop will it go away? You guys seem to be saying the issues persist.

I think I'll wait to see if there's any test issues. Then maybe I'll stop. And...shave my head? Fuck I'm not ready. Why is life such a shit.
>>
>>38712446
As we told you last time OP, it's in your head. You wouldn't listen then and you don't seem to listen now.
The mind is powerful, and if things like stress and anxiety can cause ED and low libido don't you think a fear of minoxidil side effects can do that too?
>>
>>38715055
the issues will go away, slowly. for me its 3 months later im still have low libido, but i can get erections u can hang a t shirt off. shit has slowly gotten better, 3 months ago i could barely get a semi erection at best

if you want to get in contact with me, my email is

just hit me up we can talk live on strategies to beat this shit and keep each other updated
>>
>>38715106
troll or idiot
>>
jesus h christ I thought this was limited to propecia

I've been taking minox for like a year now, barely worth it (my hairline moved forward a bit but the hair is so thin it's laughable)

holy shit I'm stopping asap
>>
>>38715299
yea i thought it was only propecia too, thats why i avoided that and used minoxidil ironically. wish i had done more researched before i used this poison
>>
>>38715290
Of course I'm the idiot.

You're balding, your life is in shambles, you're stressed out, but it just HAS to be the minoxidil causing this, right? Hell, even other balding insecure faggots are complaining about similar imaginary side effects on forums so it just has to be true. You guys are worse than women with fibromyalgia
>>
>>38715322
yes u are an idiot bro
>>
>>38715329
Keep telling yourself that, reassuring lies are always the easy way out my friend

Baldlets, when will they learn?
>>
>>38715355
yep, try walking in my shoes for 3 months and let me know if this is in my head, because mate you would know it isnt. anyone who has suffered from real ED will let you know, it is not in their head. this is not performance anxiety, trust me. they will let you know...

not gonna lie, thats lols af

I've been using minox 5% on my face (beard gains) for over a month, and propecia for over 4 years and I have yet to experience a single side effect. Hairline = A+
Beard = B- (but slowly improving)
>>
I've been using minox for 3 months on my face for facial hair. Been working out pretty well.

Everything is fine desu
>>
>>38715532
remember to stop at 6 months, brah. You won't activate any follicles beyond that. How are your beard gains coming along?
>>
>>38715518
thats good to hear bro, glad you arent suffering any bad side effects, god bless you're very lucky

>>38715532
good bro, you probably wont suffer any issues, most people dont. some people do though, so just be wary
>>
>>38715545
Very very well.

Before, all I could grow was some hair on my chin, a small patch under my jaw, and a handful of hairs on my upper lip.

The sides of my face were so bare that I couldn't even grow sideburns.

Now I have sideburns, and basically hair everywhere I've been putting it. I'm just waiting for them to get thicker, but even now I have to shave every few days and still see new hairs coming in.

Planning on using Black Jamaican Castor Oil after I finish my 6 months
>>
>>38715565
>>38715565
you do know u will lose ur hair gains once ur off rogaine right?
>>
>>38715778
That's not true

It's only true if you use it for the hair on your head. Otherwise if you use it long enough for the hairs to go terminal on your face, you're good
>>
>>38715781
oh didnt know that, cool

>>38715380
Women with fibromyalgia will let you know aswell

>>38715565
Get on dat der creatine too. Anecdotal evidence suggests it increases DHT which is the exact hormone that causes hair growth.

Biotin is also an obvious one. Boron & D-Aspartic Acid may or may not increase test but take them anyway on the off-chance that they do (they're beneficial to fitness anyway).

Short of taking actual anabolics, those are the best supplements. A cycle of test would probably give you all the beard you'd ever want though kek.
>>
Fuck off you fear mongering piece of shit. I legit wish I knew you irl to kick your ass for making this same fucking thread everyday, it's in your HEAD, topical DHT is NOT going to act the same as fin

Fuck off with your mentally retarded ass, weirdo. You're doing the same shit as every other hypochondriac, posting bullshit symptoms online and fucking with other people, making them think they have symptoms, too

Ugly balding faggot
>>
LOL don't ever hop on fin or you balls will fall. Minoxidil does not even cause ED.
Fin and minox user here. i have very little sides only less libido maybe 25% less but still horny and going after grills
>>
>>38712446
how about you tell us about the hair gains too.....

i hope you are not serious wtf

Minoxidil does do this. I used it and it actually made me moody.

Ended up taking Finasteride which I regret more than anything. I can still get erections but my sex drive is a dead as fried chicken.

>>38718849
DHT is what causes secondary hair growth like facial hair, chest hair, etc.
>>
Making this thread every two days for months on end still won't change anything. Your ED isn't from minoxidil, and you should seriously be seeing a therapist.
>>
You fuckers make the members over at Propeciahelp seem sensible.
