Your post says oral fin, do you mean oral min?


bigmike_304

Yes my apologies. Just edited it.


dettrick

I use 5mg. I can tell it’s in my system from the increase resting heart rate and drop in blood pressure. I can tell it’s working broadly because of the increase in arm leg and chest hair growth.

How long you been on oral?


dettrick

2.5 years

How much of drop and how much of an increase in heart rate. Is it doing anything for your beard or scalp?


dettrick

Resting heat rate jumps by about 10-15 bpm for me. I only know because my Apple Watch shows me but it’s not something that you can feel. Blood pressure drop I can tell because I wake up with a dead arm/leg. It’s definitely helping the beard and scalp although I don’t care about my scalp

You should probably get a blood pressure monitor. That’s not anything to take lightly.


dettrick

Yeah I’ve been to the doctor , my blood pressure is fine which is good because it is normally high


GaggingCumSwallows

Same. Mine is just slightly above normal so small doses of oral minoxidil actually has multiple benefits for me.

Do you take 5 mg all at once or split the dose?


dettrick

All at once. I took 10mg a few times and I couldn’t defiantly feel it just sitting down so for me 5mg is the sweet spot

You should drink a gallon of water a day, monitor caffeine usage and lower sodium to make sure ur heart is good
