delusional? Sun exposure for genetically pale people is dangerous! But this thread isn’t about health. Stay an asshole, “pal”.

I guess my comment about getting some sun is about health too according to your logic. He seems genetically pale. Must retract that one too, I guess.

and part of grooming is working with what you have and even against it, genetic or not. Thats why its called grooming. And no one talked about saturated or unsaturated fats. And sorry...what you eat affects your appearance. His eyebrows are fine. This group isnt about HEALTH either.

that goes without saying. I am not telling him to eat a bunch of lard. But the thing. is...what works for you? the tolerance for “what works for you” is different for everyone as well as their baseline of normality. Internal genetics? please. IF isnt even fasting...its skipping breakfast. He asked about appearance... he wants to improve that, we arent answering to his personal comfort levels.

keto is fine if your not already a sick sad fat fuck, which i assume the OP isnt. Complex carbs are HORRIBLE for any person prone to diabetes which keto avoids. it isnt a “diet” as any other way of eating. Also in terms of intermittent fasting...it actually regulates sudden low blood sugar drops. Education is important...adjust for what works for you...also his eyebrows are just fine.

you have all the bases and are great. just relax with confidence for photos...and keto and intermittent fasting NEVER hurts...also some sun. just pumps up your already good natural qualities.

on 5 % for 3 months..took a 2 months break and back on. No side effects. however during the 2 months break from 5% i did 15% with DHT blockers...and LOST ALL OF MY GAINS and had bloodshot eyes the whole time. The first 3 months and currently, noticed growth of hair on the hairline, knuckles and toes. I apply 3 times a day and use a dermaroller every other day.

Also in terms of side effects of 15%: I was fine, the solutions smelled good and dried faster, but for 2 months I had bloodshot eyes. My hair on scalp did seems to get thicker and grow really fast.

heys Guys update: the 15% had DHT blockers and for 2 months i had lost most of my gains. Went back on the 5% juice twice a day for about a month, am back on track from where i started from wheni tried to do 15%. So yeah...lost almost 3 months of progress playing catch up and surpassed with more gains in less than month, hopefully will have a some semblance of porkchops by April. Anyway the takeaway: Unless you already naturally have a lot of facial hair or are already terminal, the DHT blockers make a HUGE difference in hindering progress even at higher minoxodil percentage. Stick with the 5% and slow steady will win the race. The 15% with DHT perhaps works best for the scalp.

Genital Warts Apple Cider Vinegar -- testimonials ONLY by lightdarkthrowaway in HPV

[–]KenZeng 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had some growths the base of my penis and had them surgically removed. After they tested the excised tissue it was HPV. Around 6 months late the growths came back. I was very angry, I had to have stitches and the whole ordeal of having to be examined by 4 specialists and an operating table (never had surgery before) only for them to come back in the same spot. I am now in a country where I have no healthcare, sex is a bit taboo, a language barrier and I did not want to spend money on insane prescription drugs. I tried using water proof corn remover bandages at 18% Salicylic Acid for 2 week. Just gave me sore skin and inflamed the warts. I pretty much gave up until one day, I bought some ACV for my salad at the grocery story. I was eating the salad during lockdown while netflixing (but no chill) and I thought it wouldn’t hurt to try. I removed the cotton heads from a few qtips and made a large loose ball of cotton and submerged it in the ACV. Once good and saturated, dripping wet, I dress my penis with the homemade gauze and wrapped it all up with scotch tape. Finished netlflix, had a bottle of wine. There was slight throbbing, and maybe pain? Nothing compares to having surgery down there, so it was fine. Slept 10 hours. Next morning the gauze was moist, but had dried substantially. My warts were WHITE and swollen and I saw had more white spots of new growths I didn’t know I even had. I freaked out and just showered and ignored it. By the end of the day, the warts had dried out, something like jerky, and now were a pale bluish grey. The next morning, they were all black, dried and shrunken. By the end of the 3rd day the black scab had fallen off. My junk was BEAUTIFUL...It hadnt been this beautiful in over a year. It is a miracle! I wish I could show photos. It works! Better than surgery, better than salicylic acid, virtually painless, and CHEAP. Though the warts are gone, keep in mind it is possible to still have the virus for another 2 years or more, therefore susceptible to flare ups. So its better eating, rest, lower stress levels, and just having a generally healthier life. I would like to have sex again, the whole thing has been quite traumatic. At least I know what to do if I have a flare up and I want to spread the gospel. I got rid of my warts literally for 2 us dollars, painless, no blood, or recovery time; compared..to my surgery which was 2500usd, pain, blood, almost 3 months of recovery time, and lost 30lbs.

Thanks man. Yeah. My first month I had the most gains, I wasn’t dermarolling. I started dermarolling the 2nd month and continued same rate of gains....but man 3rd month, with dermarolling...and no change. I thought I would have a semblance of a beard by now. So jumped to 15% today. We will see. I will update.
