12 week milestone, picture one is 4 weeks. Seeing good transitional hair growth and terminal is getting thicker. Still no real upper cheek growth but I’m assuming that’s one of the harder areas to grow. Excited for the next 12 weeks.

Question Need advice if anyone can see actual beard growth or is it just me coping

So I went through a traumatic experience last year. Was home bound for 3-4 months and during that my beard became patchy and started shedding a ton of hair.

BUT now it looks like it’s growing back but I need a 2nd opinion if it’s really growing back.

I did go to a dermatologist and she said it’s stress induced alopecia. She said it can grow back in weeks months or even years. I thought she was just giving me false hope. But now it looks like it’s growing back but just wanna confirm if I’m coping or not .

Question Would applying minox on moustache while at work/class and washing it off before home reduce danger for cat?

2 Upvotes

I am looking to start applying minox liquid once a day specifically for my moustache area (I know twice a day is recommended for faster gains via the FAQ) and I am terrified of having my very touchy cat come in contact with it..

I was hoping to be able to get to class and apply, then at the end of my classes have it washed off, etc. And I'd be keeping the product in my locker.

Is there any lasting issue about it lingering on my skin despite soap? Or should I just accept my awful facial hair.

Not sure if thats dangerous since its doubling the dosage and do people shed hair from the head from using it on beard?

High blood pressure

3 Upvotes

I’ve been taking minox for 1.5 months using foam 2 times a day . Im 44 years old didn’t notice too many issues with the minox maybe a little face flushing. I upped my dosage to half a cap starting last week and come this week I started noticing my blood pressure was high , sweating, increased heart rate tight throat , etc etc . I just happened to have a dr apt they took my BP and it was 148/98.
Dr said it’s not from minox because it’s foam but that’s only thing that changed .
I’m finally getting results and have to look out for my health . I want the best of both but what are suggestions here , stop altogether (will there be any side effects ) or lower it to one time a day and leave it there see how I feel ?
