Regular Member r2theoozbeck Posted September 12, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 12, 2022 Hi All, Attached are baseline photos (before XYON). I have been on XYON for 4 weeks now. Application: One pump daily to the crown area, then spread as much as I can towards the front. Side Effects Update: I believe I have noticed that my semen is a little more watery. Besides that I haven't experienced any other side effects. I will upload new photos at the two month mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member hockeyman Posted September 12, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 12, 2022 You look as if the entire top of your scalp could benefit from the application. The instructions mention using two pumps worth to cover a larger area but only applying every second day. Did you consider doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member r2theoozbeck Posted September 12, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 12, 2022 I have not considered that, thank you. Though, I wonder how a large dose of application, even every other day, might induce possible side effects. Given the minor side effect I've already experienced, I might do what you suggest but only apply every MWF. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member hockeyman Posted September 12, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 12, 2022 I just received the Xyon topical as well. In the instruction booklet it mentions the two pump every other day method for covering larger areas. Personally, I'm unsure how to proceed as I would like to cover the whole top of my scalp, however, 2 pumps worth seems like a lot of the drug all in one shot. I had a thought that a person could alternate scalp regions each day - front half one day back half the next day. This morning was my second application. I tried to cover as much area as possible with one pump. In terms of the actual application, I'm not sure if I'm getting more on my scalp or more on existing hair.

Hi hockeyman, If you wish, you may reach out to your prescribing dermatologist via the web platform, the link should be in your email inbox. They will be able to answer all of your questions regarding the dosage and application of the treatment. Regards, XYON Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member r2theoozbeck Posted October 29, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 29, 2022 Hi All, I am three months into using XYON. However, I have significantly changed the dosage I am using. I describe below. First week of August 2022, I started XYON with daily application (my post in this thread on Sept 12th 2022 reflected pictures from right before I started XYON). Third week of September 2022, I stopped XYON due to side effects. I tested my DHT- 18 ng/dL(I don't have baseline unfortunately). Testosterone was completely fine. Second week of October 2022, I resumed XYON but only at twice a week application (I felt and continue to feel completely fine with no sides). First week of November 2022 I will increase dosage to 3 times a week. I have mainly been applying to the crown. Below are photos from a haircut on October 29th 2022. I apologize for the difference in hair length and photo quality from the original professional photos. To me, there isn't a change. But this very likely due to my inconsistency. MWF application here we come! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member r2theoozbeck Posted October 30, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 30, 2022 Hi all. Here are my baseline photos. (Much longer hair length and higher photo resolution). No change in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member r2theoozbeck Posted December 16, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 16, 2022 Hi all, another update on XYON. I describe my dosage below. First week of August 2022, I started XYON with daily application (my post in this thread on Sept 12th 2022 reflected pictures from right before I started XYON). Third week of September 2022, I stopped XYON due to side effects. I tested my DHT- 18 ng/dL(I don't have baseline unfortunately). Testosterone was completely fine. Second week of October 2022, I resumed XYON but only at twice a week application (I felt and continue to feel completely fine with no sides). I continue with twice a week application (before I mentioned considering adding a third day but have not). I have mainly been applying to the crown. Below are photos from a haircut on December 10th 2022. To me, there isn't a change. I am considering adding minoxidil daily (I understand this would disrupt the nature of the campaign, but might be good to know its combined efficacy) Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
