    Oral Minoxidil- Experience and Results

    After contemplating and researching for a long time, I finally started Oral minoxidil 1.25mg daily on 21/3/2024. I am at close to a month now. I was thinking about continuing my old hair transplant thread but made a new one as I thought it will get more views. The plan is to increase it by 0.625mg every month till I reach 5 mg and watch out for all side-effects.



    Its already been close to a month and I have upped the dose to 1.25mg / 2.5mg on alternate days i.e have increased the dose by 0.625mg from the previous month.



    Sideffects: Keeping a close eye but none reported so far

    Results: Too soon. But there was a surprise, I can say with surity (Not a Placebo, for sure )that around the 20 day mark, my hair shed had reduced. I wasn't shedding much previously. It was just that when I used to comb my hair, bath etc, there were 5-10 hair on the brush etc. these are close to 1-5 now.



    I will keep the thread updated. Will also add pictures.

    1st potential side effect (unsure ) after 1 month:



    Guys has anyone noticed an itchy scalp after using oral minoxidil ?

    I know its a side effect of topical minoxidil but I think I am experiencing the same with oral minoxidil.

    I tried searching on google but couldn't find anything.

    Its not a big concern but worth noting nonetheless

    Will keep you guys posted
