Switching From Oral to topical solution ? And Consequences ?
LeveledUp replied to Shadman's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
Do you feel bad any negative impact hairloss wise? Ive been on Fin awhile although not consistently as I should be…When I run out I tend not to rush out to get more or I go through periods where I don’t take it out of forgetfulness. But feel my libido as of late has gone down whilst I’ve been more consistent that last few months…Can’t say it’s Fin for sure or fin alone, but wouldn’t surprise me if it’s playing a part. Thinking to either do 3x week or 0.5mg daily or maybe stop completely . -

I went to 5mg no sides but also no results. i came from topical which worked a lot better for me.

Oral minoxidil question
LeveledUp replied to Pelange's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Yeah I don’t buy it at all. From my own experience and others if it was me on 5mg I should be a poster boy for oral minoxidil. For me, if you’re an actual responder applying directly to the follicle vs orally and hoping that it reaches your hair follicles in a sufficient amount. -
Is there a particular reason you want to purchase through a clinic?

Oral minoxidil question
LeveledUp replied to Pelange's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Completely agree with this. i switched and lost major ground. Makes complete sense for topical to more effective, if you’re a responder than oral. If topical works don’t switch it’s as simple as that -
Definitely not wasting his time. fin 3x per week will be still be somewhat effective

Finasteride really that bad regarding sex life?
LeveledUp replied to Gobrel's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
Maybe anecdotal took a break from Fin been nearly a month and I feel like E quality has improved. Going to start again next week but do 1mg 3x a week rather than daily. -
I mean you could give it a go your experience may be completely different to mine. You can switch back from pill to topical if you like. I just think if topicals working don’t mess things up, I know you said you don’t like the greasy wet look. Maybe apply at night only? i think I’m still using oral as I’m holding onto the hope things will suddenly improve, but that’s wishful thinking.

2.5mg for 7 months then 5mg for last 4-5months. Topical was 5% 1-2x per day. Probably seen more arm hair growth then head growth on oral. Well I moved to oral mainly for convenience, I personally don’t see the point in using both for my use case. i think that’ll be overkill, I’d rather just use one and be done…And probably will increase sides. I’m likely going to wait until the new year to switch, part of me wants to change back now. But at the same time I don’t want to go through a massive shed right now….But maybe I’ll take the plunge within coming weeks as don’t see my situation changing. Guess sooner the better and maybe that time next year my hair will be a lot better and I’ll regain what I lost being on oral over the last 12 months
-
I’d reevaluate at the 6 months mark. Although based on my results since switching to oral 1 year ago, topical probably would give me you better results. i switched and regret it, Oral hasn’t done much and topical was night and day

I stopped Finasteride after 10 years in a hope to become a normal person
LeveledUp replied to un13's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
Im tempted to wean off finasteride, just to see if it has contributed negatively to my depression and also see the difference in libido. Although I do take anti depressants also which could also be affecting libido. Probably next year maybe, as just recently bought 6 months worth or even just tapering down to 3x weekly -
Not had any issues personally. Was previously using Manual.co for Oral Minoxidil. Came without 2 weeks i believe oral minoxidil is dirt cheap in Thailand hence the price

Goodstuffstore Comes from Thailand 6 month supply for £30 Domg pay £250 lol that’s crazy

Meh don’t see a problem with investigating claims

Yep waiting 12 months seems daunting when there’s no improvement in sight. im approaching 12 months in October, and the lack of progress. Has just made me realise I’ve probably wasted the last year by switching to oral…Instead of just being content with topical. Been 3 months on 5mg after 7 months on 2.5mg. And even increasing I’m not seeing any real difference which is frustrating. I’d like to hold out a bit longer but everyday I just think to quit and just finally start topical again.
-
I could never do it consistently tbh. always been too lazy to do it, I’d do it once then put it off for like a month
-
I think I’m shedding but I’m unsure. Looking at photos from last month to now, seems to be last hair around the hairline which was already scarce. But unsure it was the castor oil I was using that made the hair look thicker by making my hair lay down flatter. I have curly Afro type hair Ultimately I’m still not convinced by Oral Minxodil in my case and will probably be back to Topical next month. I think based on my experience Topical should always be tried first and if it works stick with it. Don’t be tempted by Oral unless you absolutely don’t get along with Topical. I’ve had no sides though, so can’t relate to what Kevin’s mentioned in his videos. Maybe my hands look a bit hairier but nothing out of control. And I could just be thinking that as can’t say I’ve paid much attention to my body hair before
