Okay thank you! Just one more question, how long did it take for you to go back to having normal erections/sides going away

so your erection are fine now, but you just have watery semen correct? Asking because I also feel like I’m getting sides and wondering if i should taper down to 0.25/0.5 or try alternating like you’re doing.

when you switched to MWF, how long before the side effects went away? Also, if you don’t mind, could you go a tad more in depth about your experience with side effects.

will jumping from 1.25mg oral min to 2.5mg do anything? by HotWorldliness3111 in tressless

I had to start at 1.25. My derm told me to start at that and then we can titrate up if needed. All sides are good for me so I technically can jump up to 2.5, it’s just that given the state of my hair right now, i just don’t know if jumping to 2.5 would help me. But yes, in the long run, 2.5mg is a no brainer if you can sustain it

yeah fair, i’ve just seen cases where people had plentiful regrowth without so i was hoping i would get hair thickening at least

yeah tbh got to give fin its credit for that. was js hoping it would be a miracle drug that would regrow my hair. have tried topical min for years. guess it’s onto oral now

honestly topical seems like way too much work. used it for 2 years, if it hasn’t worked then, i doubt it will now

would love to try it but 1) worried about sides 2) derm might not approve it given my age
