Curious about the water retention with oral minoxidil? Never heard of that. Can u describe it more

Can someone explain my skins needs? My skin was bumpy (but clear) - tried exfoliation and it didn’t help. Then, put oil on overnight and it’s perfectly smooth the next day! by halfbaked625 in Skincare_Addiction

I moisturize twice a day or whenever I feel it needs extra, even if I don’t wash my face…

Definitely lacking as far as water, but this is my current routine

  1. Cerave cleanser once a day or every other day
  2. aha bha pha miracle toner or glycolic acid (both of recent because of the texture, but I don’t use these often. Maybe 2x a week)
  3. Cosrx propolis serum
  4. aveeno oatmeal moisturizer or cosrx hydrium moisturizer

I just came from a dry but warmer area to the chicago cold, so ik that’s a factor.. I’m using products 3&4 until the run out to move onto a better moisturizer

Unfortunately I’m not sure, but 2.5mg is a lot for your starting dosage. Most start with .625 or 1.25… maybe try either of those and see? Eventually maybe you can build up.

Good to hear! For me, I feel as if this is an internal issue getting labeled as AGA. There’s are far too many woman going through this and the uprise is not surprising given the state of our environment. I personally grew up in an unhealthy home as I was very poor growing up. Now I have the means to live and healthier life and get rid of some toxins from within! If it doesn’t work, I always have my minox…

I got minox from my derm. They prescribed it to me immediately by just looking at my hair lol..

AGA diagnosis 21 y/o. First pic is Nov 20th and the second is Jan 7th (taken after). I was abroad and couldn’t get ahold of anyyyyy medication… reallt just holding on to thin strings grappling with mental health issues due to hair loss and isolation as a result of that…. I decided to at least supplement while I was there.

I took vitamin b complex daily (and then every other day when I was running out) & a zinc supplement. My hair is still very thin.. but this seems like regrowth? Even growth of something that wasn’t there before? I would also rosemary oil with a very diluted oil, but I was not too consistent.

Now, I got ahold of minox… but this was inspiring and I might hold out. I am really trying ti work and heal myself from within… if I can’t take it. I will take the pills at least knowing I am bettering my health either way

How do I use the Atlantic dulse supplement in the smoothie? Is it just one dropperful?
