Hey @mustang, I've followed your comments on several different forums and I created this account to first say thanks for trying to educate people on what you found to work for you. I see a lot of misguided people comments about your intentions but I think its pretty clear that you just care to share what is working as you know this condition consumes many people. Second I think you're on to something good with topical DUT but wanted to share my experience and get some feedback from you. A few things I've tried so you and others can learn from my experience; - Minoxidil - years ago I did not notice symptoms from this but now at the age of 34 and possibly other health issues like anxiety I get extreme side effects - Within hours I get a tension headache and that lasts for about 4 days. I did extensive research on this and found its likely due to the fact that Minox is a vasodilator (similar to Viagra) which opens the potassium channels in blood veins throughout the scalp. This is good for delivering more blood to the follicles likely but unfortunately for me this creates huge tension around my scalp which feels like my brain is wired and I can hardly sleep with this condition. So basically not an option but possibly a data point for me- maybe my scalp absorbs more Minox for whatever reason as many others don't get this - Oral Fin - within a day or two of taking oral Fin I had extreme exhaustion and brain fog which comes coupled with major anxiety and all that. I literally began waking up at 2-3 AM with some weird brain fog and could not go back to sleep for hours. Extensive research on this for years and I found that Fin is a TERRIBLE drug. Aside from the drop in serum DHT which has many sexual functions it obliterates neurosteroids like Allopregnanolone which is key in GABA activity and neuroprotective processes in the brain. All this amounts to many short term and long term implications for the brain and am surprised many people take this drug without concern. -Topical Fin - (Minoxidilmax) - pretty much same sides as oral Fin - terrible to say the least. -Topical Dut - this one I got from you and this is where I wanted to get some feedback. I ordered two bottles after reading your posts- one from Minoxidilexpress Growth Labs(.5%) ( european company) and the other from Minoxidilmax(.1%). As a first experiment and dont ask why but I mixed the two and applied them together. The first time it was prior to bed and I washed in morning, the second day I applied for a few hours then washed and applied again before sleep. On the 3d day I started to notice very slight sides- my balls were aching. This is something that occurred to me on Fin as well but is not the worst of the sides because its very faint. It does however tell me that its impacting serum hormones/neurosteroids. By the 4th and 5th day I began having more severe sides and now about 1.5weeks after last application I had a day where I stayed in bed all day because I felt like shit mentally. Now on topical Dut I think you will likely say that the Minoxidilmax is shit and non Liposomal and the Minoxidilexpress is two high of dosage and possibly non Liposomal. Please let me know your thoughts. I was exremely excited to try this option because I felt it would be perfect for me but am now pretty down about the fact that I still experienced very bad sides. Have you tried non Liposomal? Does it get absorbed much more systemically? I plan on now ordering from Fueclinic based on your comments allthough I am located in US and am not sure if they deliver here. Also based on prior comments- doesnt microneedling while taking topical defeat the purpose? Wouldnt it go systemic? I saw a comment on Strut site here saying they encourage it but it seems pretty silly to me and it just common sense that it would go 100% systemic at that point
