A user experienced heartproblems after taking 1mg finasteride and 2.5mg oral minoxidil and is considering quitting minoxidil. Others discussed their experiences with heart issues and minoxidil, with some suggesting topical minoxidil as a safer alternative.
A person mistakenly drank an entire bottle of topical minoxidil, leading to ICU admission with shock and heart failure. The incident highlights the dangers of ingesting topical treatments and the importance of proper usage and dosage.
Oral minoxidil may improve hair growth, reduce arterial stiffness, and prevent other health issues. Some users believe it is an effective treatment despite concerns about its effects on skin and blood.
The conversation discusses the potential connection between baldness, heart disease, and high blood pressure. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, Spironolactone, and Finasteride.
Oral minoxidil can boost hair growth but may cause side effects like heart palpitations and increased body hair. Many prefer topical minoxidil due to fewer side effects.
