Gives me hope after reading all these horror stories. Thanks for your input blkbl. Looking forward to being normal again! I guess it just takes time. Did you experience loss of sensation "down there" as one of the side effects??

Man this stuff is gnarly, and I had no idea. Even after the 2nd day of use I could feel the symptoms come on. Is there anything I can/ should be doing to speed up the process and get the Min out of my system??

You are not alone. All people have side-effects from any medication. And even healthy athletic people like me have to deal with medication for hair loss treatment, in my case finasteride .25 mg every three days and minoxidil to applications every day.

For nutritional supplement, ingest biotin, Ginseng and cod liver oil and shower my hair with biotin. I also sleep with aloe vera and olive oil on my scalp. I occasionally pour some wet dog food in my scalp as well.
