fin and minox question

[mjsn]

Hello everyone.

 

I have 2 questions -

 

1 ) If I switch back and forth between generic minoxidil brands of the same concentration (5%), will it have any negative effects?

 

2) If I have gyno and take propecia, will it make the gyno worse?

 

Thanks.

1. as long as the generic brands have the same active ingrediant--minoxidil, and same % of minoxidil, it will make no differance; they are essentially the same.

 

2, I would say generally no; gyno from propecia is a rare side effect;

I would disagree with dhoose on point 2; though gyno is a rare side effect in propecia users, for somebody who already HAS gyno, it could be an different story.

 

Do you know why do you have gyno? Are you an AAS/prohormone user? Testicular abnormalities? Drug use (cimetidine/omeprazole/spironolactone, among others)? Or is it idiopathic?

 

Idiopathic gyno is largely presumed to be caused by a sex hormone imbalance and/or a sensitivity in the tissue(s) that respond to them.

 

While the average user statistically has nothing to worry about, you are not the average user.
