PLEASE MAKE MORE IN DEPTH VIDEOS ON FEMALE PATTERN HAIRLOSS , ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA. PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE HOW MANY OF US IT AFFECTS ESPECIALLY FROM AN EARLY AGE. I started losing my hair since i was 17, I am now 32. Always looking forward to your videos, but I would like to learn more about this issue that is probably more emotionally devastating to us women, more than men, and yet.. we do not get as much information on it as we should. THANK YOU! God bless
ME too, I started at 17 and I did not know about the FPHL so I thought it was from stress but it never stopped since. AT 27-28, I barely had hair to get the pony tail and I still did not know WHERE or WHICH doctor I should visit because seem like no one talked about this kind of hair loss in my country. at the age of 40, well, I just started the treatmnet..sad
You Definitely should and I hope you do get more videos on that topic for sure but don't say it's more devastating for girls. Losing your hair is equally bad. I've shaved my head last year to try and embrace the baldness but loads of girls said I looked way better before (I didnt tell them I did it because of androgenic alopecia). Been balding since 18 and I'm 22 now, started taking all kinds of drugs that effect my hormone levels and even sexual health just in the hopes of getting some of my hair back. Balding sucks for everyone, not just women. That's all I want to say.
Minoxidil had a black box warning and is rarely used for BP due to side effects. One of them is pericarditis which is a buildup of fluid around the heart.
I am using 1.25 mg for a year. No side effects but no new hairs. I am going to increase it to 2.5 and instead of finasteride start dutasteride which is the same price.
hi doctor, could you please let us know what are the side effects related to blood platelets , white blood cells, clotting and so on... when we consume minoxidil orally
@@hondaeownerreviews8608 Sure but minoxodil dosent stop hair loss like finasteride does.. Dont say the pro's without the cons. It is best to use both for best results.
I was having terrible hair loss earlier this year because of androgenetic alopecia. My dermatologist prescreibed shampoo + topical minoxidil + capsules of minoxidil and after 3 months i had really a lot of hair on my scalp 😍 BUT! Then the dermatologist suggested I stop taking the capsules, and my hair started to fall down a lot again 🙃 so i am back to the capsules now
@@davidanana Because minoxidil only promotes growth and does not slow the cause of the hair loss which is what FIN and DUT can do. They block DHT in the scalp. YOu have to target both.
Hi, I read on Wikipedia that cardiac lesions and pericardial effusion have been reported with oral minoxidil. Do you view these as cause for concern with the dosage for hair loss? What dosage in men do you think is best to avoid these possible side effects while also stimulating hair growth?
Cardiac lesions were detected on some animal studies but not monkeys or 150 humans who had autopsies performed after taking much higher dosages for blood pressure.
They are plenty that can’t use any topical, cause of the type of job or lifestyle, fishermen, surfers, swimmers, wrestlers, firefighters… some surgeons… u name it! Always talk about options with ur specialist.
Love how informative this channel is. After 6 months of topical minoxidil, the resulting hair growth was very curly and wiry lustreless hair (my hair otherwise is straight) - have you come across this before? I have read about acquired progressive kinking of the hair but there seems to be very little info out there, and I don't know if it was this, the minoxidil, or something else which caused these strange hairs to grow.
Not my experience with either topical or oral minoxidil. Wish it could make my hair grow curlier. Even wiry would be welcome. I've had naturally curly hair all my life just like my father. And just like him, the hormone changes that occur at mid-life made our curls relax a bit as we grew older. I still have curly hair, but not as curly as before. I miss it.
Yes I have been using foam minoxodil for quite a few years and my hair has gone to shit in terms of quality even though I have retained it. growing with curls/kinks and a coarse texture in many hairs...I have switched to oral just last week btw...

@@LarsRyeJeppesen my condition is very pathetic… I started to use Kirkland minoxidil around 3-4 years ago when I was 22-23….at first the results were great…i also tried different brands of minox and it worked for me….but after 2-3 years i lost around 40-50% of hair which i gained from it regardless of applying it daily at night…after that my hair growth became totally stabilized like no more regrowth and hair also became very thin…few months ago i consulted a dermatologist and he gave me dutasteride with minox….after taking dutas for 4months still no improvement in hair and growth….so i started finasteride now 6 days a week with dutasteride 1day a week…and also started oral minox 2.5 mg from yesterday…!
So if we use oral minoxidil there will. not be further shedding like 2nd shedding? Plz rply.. Am currently going thru 2nd shedding(topical. Minoxidil )
Hi guys i enjoy your channel and find it very helpful. I have been using finasteride for a year and i am now considering using minoxidil as well. Will i experience shedding and lose my progress?
The side effects are typically associated with the higher doses. Stick with 2.5mg or less and you're unlikely to experience side effects if you are otherwise in good health. With oral minoxidil, a bigger dose isn't necessarily a more effective dose. It just increases the risk of side effects, some of them quite nasty.
What happens if you’re taking minoxidil and you later decide to get a hair transplant because you don’t want to commit to taking it every day? Would the hair transplant still be effective given that shedding is likely to occur?
@@cjbolan8059 if you don't mind i have 2 questions for you 1} you are using any other drug finasteride or Dutasteride besides Minoxidill because if you are you really can't say which one giving you the benefit . 2} how did take to see results , what i mean the smallest of hairs
@@PeakMotionOfficial Not according to my doctor (who is a hair specialist). She tells me that it's a myth that everyone sheds. Some people do shed, some don't. I did not. The reason I know my minoxidil was working for me is because my hair grew back.
Really appreciate all this expert information for free! My aussie dermatologist recently introduced me to oral minoxidil and he felt it was far more efficacious than the topical form. Curious to see if I make any beard gains as well
Yes you lose everything on your head. Not sure about beard or other body hair though. There's a few people I've seen like with minoxidil beards who've been able to keep around 60% of their new beard follicles

Oral minoxidil is so potent that u can get away with using just oral minoxidil and u don’t even need finestride that’s how potent it is. It’s levels more effective that topical minoxidil
@suraj dhar i can't say this for sure, because i take it that a long time already.....even after a few years of use my hairloss got stronger again, but i'm sure it works to maintain my hairs, better than the minoxidil lotion
@suraj dhar yes..of course....you have to take both, not only one, take minox but don't stop fin, they work together better than one alone.....that's the only combo still now that really works, and i tied them all....cb0301 will come in a few years, it also works (i ordered it from china and did my own lotion)
What's the long term(10-20yrs) safety, efficacy and efficiency of low dose(2.5gm)oral minoxidil!

Doctor, great video thank you! Just wondering how many people in your clinic between all your doctors have you prescribed oral minoxidil? im just trying to get a gage for the level of experience with this medication. Thanks
@@kingsultantv8332 you can take it orally too( one spoon per day) as it has other benefits like it is good for lungs health. And for hairs, you need to apply it on the scalp daily.
Finasteride does not affect penis size. However, it can affect your erection potential. Your penis won't be any smaller than it used to be, you just might not be able to get as strong of an erection, before you started taking Finasteride. These side effects aren't very common though.
start with Pantostin(alfatradiol) mix it with ru58841 first for like 4 months then use minoxidil. reasons why you don't want to start with minoxidil is because you don't want your hair to get addicted to it and have to you it for life. Also minoxidil doesn't deal with the root cause of Hairloss thats why I recommend Alfatradiol and Ru58841, if you're scared of using ru58841 or it's a pain in the ass to use just use Alfatradiol and minoxidil after 4 months of Alfatradiol. If you are 18 years old add topical finasteride. then when you are 20 years old take oral finasteride. Watch this youtuber Kevin Mann, he will tell you everything you need to do when loosing hair as a teenager.
@@kingsultantv8332 what is alfatradiol nd ru....till now things I heard for male pattern baldness are finasteride, minoxidil and saw palmetto...can you explain what above two medicine are and how they actually help to stop balding

@@lud6441 The only side I have had (and still have) is that sometimes during ejaculation, nothing comes out. The feeling/sensation is the same.. closing my eyes I would not be able to tell if something came out or not. It's maybe 33pct of the times that nothing comes out. The remaining 67pct the ejaculations are normal. No change in libido afaik. Other than that no noticed side effects, other than my hairloss has completely stopped. I don't think I have much regrowth, but hairloss is stopped, I would say. I am introducing Oral Min to see if I can get some regrowth. My hairloss is kinda diffuse so I appear to have a full head of hair, but it's very thin.
Have a similar question. Have been using topical for 2 years now and it is inconvenient and leaves hair sticky so I would rather switch to the oral even with the possible sides. Thinking to start oral while slowly decreasing the topical until I run of my supply. Thoughts anybody?
slayer1200 same here using topical minox since 2 years but its pain in a** everyday. Thinking to switch oral minox. We all let eachother know if anyone got any info 🤙
@@tahamuqtader353 check out the new minox. Q&a video from this channel. Apparently you can wash hair like an hour after putting it on because it is absorbed in 30 minutes. Also said once per day should be enough contrary to the directions on the packaging. That makes things a lot more convenient.
slayer1200 thanks for letting know. I watched that already i have been doing it partially since i started i apply foam version of foligain(used regaine, kirkland foams aswell) once in a day & keep for 8 hours while sleeping. But all foams make my hair little dry, frizzy & greasy too. Seems in long run spoiling hair quality so iam thinking to move lower oral doses & see how it goes but scared will i be alive to see results lol
Maybe. Everyone is different. I had no shedding myself, either when I first started topical minoxidil or when I switched to oral minoxidil. Not everyone sheds.
my question about oral minoxidil is that what if you are not a diffuse thinner, but a receding hairline kind of guy. won't oral minoxidil affect you because with topical you can apply directly to the receding hairline ,but oral will affect your the whole head.
That is why I start on 2.5mg oral minox as I'm a diffuse thinner. I have a full head of hair, it's just very thin (I'm 52 so I guess that's aging for you). we shall see if it helps. I've been on DUT for 3.5 years which completely has stopped any hairloss/thinning.
Need a further video on possible side effects with low dose lonetin and since studies are limited, perhaps your own experience prescribing it to patients. Thank you!

Hi doctor, you spoke about young, fit people in good health... But what about not young people (always in good health) as 50 years old people? Can they take 2.5mg per day safely? Thanks
I'm 52 and starting 2.5mg oral tomorrow. Already on DUT for 3,5 years now without any issues. If you're in good shape you should be good.
@@LarsRyeJeppesen hows ur experience with oral?
@@DOCFIT_09 So far so good. 6 months in. I do experience higher heartbeat. I can definitely feel it on my system but diesn't bother or hinder anything. Hair has thickened a lot, it's great.
@@LarsRyeJeppesen my condition is very pathetic… I started to use Kirkland minoxidil around 3-4 years ago when I was 22-23….at first the results were great…i also tried different brands of minox and it worked for me….but after 2-3 years i lost around 40-50% of hair which i gained from it regardless of applying it daily at night…after that my hair growth became totally stabilized like no more regrowth and hair also became very thin…few months ago i consulted a dermatologist and he gave me dutasteride with minox….after taking dutas for 4months still no improvement in hair and growth….so i started finasteride now 6 days a week with dutasteride 1day a week…and also started oral minox 2.5 mg from yesterday…!
@@DOCFIT_09give it more time, it all depends on the growth cycle of your hair. I only improved on Dutasteride daily, after about 10months.
If you want to lower the side effects, take 2.5mg in half doses twice a day. I take 1.25mg every 12 hrs. The half life is very short.
So if we use oral minoxidil there will. not be further shedding like 2nd shedding? Plz rply.. Am currently going thru 2nd shedding(topical. Minoxidil )
Sir can you please make a video on sublingual minoxidil
My doctor prescribed 1mg of oral minoxidole...is this a proper dose?
Hi Doctor , where can I get oral minoxidil.? Please advise thanks
How long do I have to take oral minoxidil to see effects?
3 months to a year
Hi guys i enjoy your channel and find it very helpful. I have been using finasteride for a year and i am now considering using minoxidil as well. Will i experience shedding and lose my progress?
YEp yEp
me as well, ive been using fin for almost 5 months and no results so I was wondering about MIX as well

Hi. In your opinion how common are the oral minox side effects...
The side effects are typically associated with the higher doses. Stick with 2.5mg or less and you're unlikely to experience side effects if you are otherwise in good health. With oral minoxidil, a bigger dose isn't necessarily a more effective dose. It just increases the risk of side effects, some of them quite nasty.
What happens if you’re taking minoxidil and you later decide to get a hair transplant because you don’t want to commit to taking it every day? Would the hair transplant still be effective given that shedding is likely to occur?
does Oral make you shed at first before growth , as does Topical
It depends on the person. Not everybody sheds. I've used both topical and oral minoxidil and I never shed. Had great results with both.
@@cjbolan8059 if you don't mind i have 2 questions for you 1} you are using any other drug finasteride or Dutasteride besides Minoxidill because if you are you really can't say which one giving you the benefit . 2} how did take to see results , what i mean the smallest of hairs
It should make u shed, that’s how u no it’s working initially
@@PeakMotionOfficial thanks for the answer ,, could you tell me when you start Oral minoxidil when does shedding begin
@@PeakMotionOfficial Not according to my doctor (who is a hair specialist). She tells me that it's a myth that everyone sheds. Some people do shed, some don't. I did not. The reason I know my minoxidil was working for me is because my hair grew back.
Hello Doctor do you use Oral Minoxidil for your patient like Monoterapia ? How the results ? Wich dose are you prescriving ? Thank you
Did minoxidil help you?
You sure effect of hair loss at start is same with oral, cause my doctor said it would not make you lose hair at start?
Can you do a video about medication caused hair loss? Like ibuprofen.
What.. Nooo.. I don't think painkillers taken occasionally affect hair
Oral minoxidil with finax 1 mg can be used?
Really appreciate all this expert information for free! My aussie dermatologist recently introduced me to oral minoxidil and he felt it was far more efficacious than the topical form. Curious to see if I make any beard gains as well
How much more efficient, did he give you an indication
All the best!
Does oral minoxidil has a brand ...if then which company ?
@@bhaskarkumar4642 It is generic now.
@@TheHairLossShow do you have an email address to be contacted in at all?
Any side effect on using oral minoxidil + finesteride? Suitable use together as long term ?
For most men who are on them, no; but there's always some who get side effects.
@ytsux9259 based on the dosage they take right? If they take low dosage, I think they might not get any side effects
Hi Dr..what dosage do you recommend starting off with to minimize shock loss and shedding? Later i could just increase the dose? Thx
Did minoxidil help you?
Rick did it work?
Do you lose progress gained with oral minoxidil even if you stop using it?
Yes you lose everything on your head. Not sure about beard or other body hair though. There's a few people I've seen like with minoxidil beards who've been able to keep around 60% of their new beard follicles
Can you tell me What is Hue? Is it any different than other Hair Transplant? Please answer?
Even after using finasteride I am having hair loss
How long have you been on it for?

I'm also using Lonitab 2.5mg for 1.5 month and the shedding has really kicked in hard
@@Offsetwala i am on lonitab 2.5mg for 4 months no shedding phase it has completely reduced hairfall but no thickening
How much to combine fin and min together, how/and amount? I'm taking fin now mon wed and fri.
talk about RU doctor.
Ok, but which one works better? Because 4 months of topical minoxidil did nothing for me
did for me also nothing...even the sheeding never stopped in my case.........5 mg oral is much beter.....
Oral minoxidil is so potent that u can get away with using just oral minoxidil and u don’t even need finestride that’s how potent it is. It’s levels more effective that topical minoxidil
@suraj dhar i can't say this for sure, because i take it that a long time already.....even after a few years of use my hairloss got stronger again, but i'm sure it works to maintain my hairs, better than the minoxidil lotion
@suraj dhar yes..of course....you have to take both, not only one, take minox but don't stop fin, they work together better than one alone.....that's the only combo still now that really works, and i tied them all....cb0301 will come in a few years, it also works (i ordered it from china and did my own lotion)
@suraj dhar at least minox don´t make your hair thinner...the best option still now is minoxidil and finasteride as a combo...
What's the long term(10-20yrs) safety, efficacy and efficiency of low dose(2.5gm)oral minoxidil! I am21, NW3, planning to start on Oral minoxidil (as topical is too time taking and needs consistency which I obviously lack).if I start on it I would potentially be taking it life long as long as to keep my hair! So long term efficacy and safety does matter to me!
If you want to keep your hair you will have to go on finasteride too!
Omkar Pohankar hey bro , where are you from and could you please mention the brand that you’re planning to take . Thanks
@@JJ_JJ23 tugain and Kirkland are best to go ....if using topical minoxidil...better to go for foam topical minoxidil....way better with no other scalp irritation nd side effects
@@greymind0072 I wanna know about the oral minoxidil brand bro , I'm started taking it from today!
you think topical is that hard to use? Have ever even tried it? Use the foam, it dries instantly the whole process takes like a minute, twice a day. youve got bigger problems if you cant get that done, tf is wrong with you
This was very useful. So it shouldn't hurt if one takes oral minoxidil combined with oral finasturide ???
Doctor, great video thank you!
Just wondering how many people in your clinic between all your doctors have you prescribed oral minoxidil? im just trying to get a gage for the level of experience with this medication. Thanks

Does the oral minox age the skin??? related to colagen

Can you talk about finasteride effect on teens 16-20 I’ve heard it has effects on penis growth and height
penis yes Height I don't know about that. Just take it when you turn 20 years old that is what I did
Stick to natural oils such as Saw palmetto oil or Black seed oil and after you turn 20 start finasteride
@@syedroohullah3980 black seed oil, i didn't know it helped with hairloss. Should it be taking orally or topically
@@kingsultantv8332 you can take it orally too( one spoon per day) as it has other benefits like it is good for lungs health. And for hairs, you need to apply it on the scalp daily.
Finasteride does not affect penis size. However, it can affect your erection potential. Your penis won't be any smaller than it used to be, you just might not be able to get as strong of an erection, before you started taking Finasteride. These side effects aren't very common though.
Do you prescribe oral minoxidil with a diuretic?
Not usually... if for no other reason, because the dose of minoxidil that I use is so low.
Does one need to get a prescription for oral minoxidil? Or can I just get it at my local pharmacy over the counter?
Can you also please give a hair loss routine teenagers can you use to maintain their
Hair
start with Pantostin(alfatradiol) mix it with ru58841 first for like 4 months then use minoxidil. reasons why you don't want to start with minoxidil is because you don't want your hair to get addicted to it and have to you it for life. Also minoxidil doesn't deal with the root cause of Hairloss thats why I recommend Alfatradiol and Ru58841, if you're scared of using ru58841 or it's a pain in the ass to use just use Alfatradiol and minoxidil after 4 months of Alfatradiol. If you are 18 years old add topical finasteride. then when you are 20 years old take oral finasteride. Watch this youtuber Kevin Mann, he will tell you everything you need to do when loosing hair as a teenager.

Can you pls let us know about biotin too?
Is it good to take it with Finasteride 1mg?
As pills or shampoo?
What you recommend?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Finasteride remains in your system for atleast 3 days straight....so 0.5 mg of fin daily will do the job with very less likely of side-effects..... checkout his other videos on finasteride
@@greymind0072 Thanks for your comment, I'm already in Finasteride 1mg for the last 10 months. My question was about Biotin alongside Finasteride
I've been on finasteride 8 months and i went through the shedding phase. If i decide to start minoxidil, will shedding happen again?
I am starting 2.5mg daily oral minoxidil today, have been on Dutasteride for 3 years. If I remember, I will report back
@@LarsRyeJeppesen what is your dut dose?
@@lud6441 It's Avodart, so it's 0.5mg Dutasteride daily. I haven't started the Oral Min yet, as the package arrived too late (I am travelling now). I will be back the 22nd and then I'll start the Minoxidil. Of course I am curious/nervous how much I will shed :)
How were your sides during first few months on avodart doc has me starting at 3x a week to see my reaction or sides to it
@@lud6441 The only side I have had (and still have) is that sometimes during ejaculation, nothing comes out. The feeling/sensation is the same.. closing my eyes I would not be able to tell if something came out or not. It's maybe 33pct of the times that nothing comes out. The remaining 67pct the ejaculations are normal. No change in libido afaik. Other than that no noticed side effects, other than my hairloss has completely stopped. I don't think I have much regrowth, but hairloss is stopped, I would say. I am introducing Oral Min to see if I can get some regrowth. My hairloss is kinda diffuse so I appear to have a full head of hair, but it's very thin.
I am using topical minoxidil for the past two and a half months ...what if i shift to oral minoxidil ... Is it ok
Also interested in the answer to this
Have a similar question. Have been using topical for 2 years now and it is inconvenient and leaves hair sticky so I would rather switch to the oral even with the possible sides. Thinking to start oral while slowly decreasing the topical until I run of my supply. Thoughts anybody?
slayer1200 same here using topical minox since 2 years but its pain in a** everyday. Thinking to switch oral minox. We all let eachother know if anyone got any info 🤙
@@tahamuqtader353 check out the new minox. Q&a video from this channel. Apparently you can wash hair like an hour after putting it on because it is absorbed in 30 minutes. Also said once per day should be enough contrary to the directions on the packaging. That makes things a lot more convenient.
slayer1200 thanks for letting know. I watched that already i have been doing it partially since i started i apply foam version of foligain(used regaine, kirkland foams aswell) once in a day & keep for 8 hours while sleeping. But all foams make my hair little dry, frizzy & greasy too. Seems in long run spoiling hair quality so iam thinking to move lower oral doses & see how it goes but scared will i be alive to see results lol
I heard that after 2-3 years, topical Minoxidil will loose its effect. Is it also the Same with oral minoxidil??
Dr.What is the highest oral dose you are willing to put your patients on ?
2.5 milligrams a day
Does there is shedding of hair when we start taking oral minoxidil ?
yes
@@Cartman5101 for how long ?
@@samuelcamiloquinonesangulo2979 He literally states this in the video.
Maybe. Everyone is different. I had no shedding myself, either when I first started topical minoxidil or when I switched to oral minoxidil. Not everyone sheds.
is Nicorandil has the same results or benefits of Minoxidil its also a Potassium channel opener
my question about oral minoxidil is that what if you are not a diffuse thinner, but a receding hairline kind of guy. won't oral minoxidil affect you because with topical you can apply directly to the receding hairline ,but oral will affect your the whole head.
That is true.
That is why I start on 2.5mg oral minox as I'm a diffuse thinner. I have a full head of hair, it's just very thin (I'm 52 so I guess that's aging for you). we shall see if it helps. I've been on DUT for 3.5 years which completely has stopped any hairloss/thinning.
