i applied 5% minoxidil foam to my head twice a day for 2 weeks, (i was also on no fap at the time) first week of using minoxidil, i noticed my sex drive was incredibly low, i figured i was flatlining, i didnt attribute this to the minoxidil.
on the 12th of june i realized i had no morning wood, i tried looking at porn and it was like looking at photos of furniture. i barely managed to get a semi erection, it was weak and pathetic, when i jacked off til i came it felt like nothing.
side effects i got from minoxidil: no libido ED shrunk flacid dick (still the same size when hard) orgams feel like 3/10 instead of 10/10 premature ejaculation watery cum, less volume no morning/night time wood brain fog depression emotional numbness/flatness emotionally unstable night sweats lack of appetite joint pains limp wrists/forearms insomnia digestive problems (constipation) muscle spasms
so cliffs; >i took 5% minoxidil foam twice a day for 2 weeks >3 months later i have ED and no libido and depression
( i know most you guys will say "impossible, rogain cant do that to you, its not like propecia" i thought that exactly too, thats exactly why i was using rogain and not propecia, because i didnt want the sexual side effects) just google rogaine and ED and you will find many men with these problems
also im only 21 and never had these problems in my life
please tell me this isnt fucking permanent. i cry every single day, twice a day. i just want reassurance this will get better, because lately it hasnt seemed that way.its been 3 months, and i think of suicide all the time. this is not normal for me, ive never been depressed in my life.
i feel so alone and sad... i know, i know i post this alot but i have no one to talk to. and to all you guys in the last thread giving me genuine information thank you so much, i copied and pasted your advice in a .txt file.
sorry let me correct my self, >3 months later i have ED and no libido and dpression
it's >3 months later i STILL have ED and no libido and depression.
Adrian Edwards
Completely made up in your own mind. You read that there were sides of ed from shit like this, like 1.2% of people get it, and there's actually no evidence to suggest it isn't psycho somatic, such as studies being done where they gave people fake hair treatment and claimed they got ed from it.
You're doing it to yourself.
Tyler Jones
You fell for the rogaine meme.
Consult a doctor brahski, I hope you gonna make it we all gonna make it.
Joshua Scott
i experienced this before i even attributed it to rogaine, no morning wood/night time wood is not in my fucking head. fuck off, this isnt in my mind. ive been a healthy young man all my entire life, im only 21. theres no coincidence i get these problems as soon as i use rogaine. wtf
Juan Cooper
yep definitely did fall for it, thank you for your hopes bro, pray for me. thank you very much
Justin Wright
Protip. Rogaine, minoxidil isn't even the shit that makes your dick go limp. So yes, you are doing it to your self you fucking insecure faggot.
Josiah Young
lol, im living proof it did this to me. google other peoples experiences... im not fucking lying or imagining it... if your dick stopped working magically, u think its in your head or theres something causing it?
Chase Walker
there can be many reasons for this. now you are obsessing over minoxidil, maybe you got sth else, go see a fucking doctor about it if you are worried. but yes, most of it is prob in your head
Sebastian White
it was 100% minoxidil, all this started when i took minoxidil.
Joseph Barnes
You get a semi erection when looking at photos of furniture?
Go see a doctor.
Jeremiah Lee
then why post if you already know the answer? I take minoxidil and still have erections. but they got worse when I was depressed. so that can be a cause with you as well anyway, take maca, eat enough vitamins, take zinc
Julian Thomas
my dick shrank when i took minoxidil. glad you're fine on it, this problem doesnt happen to everyone, it is very rare, but doesnt mean it doesnt happen.
Angel Anderson
>Im living proof
>The only thing i have to go off of is Mt experience with a substance that has never been shown to kill libido and the coincidence that it started happening around maybe the same time
but definitely talk to a doctor about it, one who takes it serious. let your blood be checked. also libido is not always the same. there are just many factors
Chase James
>Its very rare Its non existent m8. You're fucking retarded. You also type like one of low IQ.

Justin Hernandez
this shit aint gonna work bro, people are just trying to get your money
embrace your baldness or short hair, men weren't designed to have long hair anyway
Christian Flores
i been to 3 gp doctors, they told me they cant do shit and its in my head. i then went to a urologist, he believed but told me he couldnt do anything about it except prescribe me some viagra. i got my blood work done, and it all appears normal. my TSH was elevated at first however i got it redone maybe 3 weeks ago and it mid range now...but these problems still persist.
so its completely normal for a healthy 21 year old male to have no sexdrive and a limp dick... riiiight, fuck off
Levi Nguyen
but do you have any mental issues? do you do sports, are you fit? I believe you, because there are other people online complaining. but panic makes it worse! dont use it, eat healthy, try maca and zinc, do a lot of sports. also, the body regenerates over time if you have NO sex drive AT ALL then try another doctor whot akes you serious. also maybe a psychologist, because the mental makes it worse and you could benefit from talking about it
Kevin Bennett
Female here.
Got diagnosed with hormone-caused hair loss. It fucking sucks. I know hair loss sucks for men but it's ten times worse for women. I feel like a freak. How do you people cope with it? The only solution might be taking hormones forever.
Honestly I've thought about just ending myself. A bald woman is one of the ugliest things to look at.
Thomas Turner
also try charcoal pills detox. they take harmful chemicals out of the body. and you could try making some detox juicing for some weeks. my libido was way higher when I made green smothies with CELERY in them, its an aphrodisiac. there are more such foods, look it up
Owen Cox
Why does he do it?
Why does the autist who wrote this post it endlessly?
Is it for le ebin trolls?
What does he gain from trying to get anons scared of minoxidil?
Is it some kind of Machiavellian scheme to make other anons bald so he looks better in comparison?
I will never understand.
Jordan Watson
Are you seriously the same guy who made the "i took 60mg zinc every day for 3 months" thread? You write just like him, even the exact same "3/10 orgasm instead of 10/10" symptom. Either you're him or a troll that copied him.
I told you that you were obviously a hypochondriac and that you need to see a therapist over this shit. Now you've switched the blame over from zinc overdose to rogaine. You say yourself you just want reassurance that it'll get better, so go see a fucking therapist.
Kevin Baker
It's more normal for a 21 year old overthonking faggot to psychosomatically give himself limp dick than a topical substance with literally no history in destroying someone's libido
So yes. Fuck off. You're sitting in this thread waiting for someone to answer all your prayers with some weird trick that'll make all your problems go away when the problem is fucking you, boyo
Jack Harris
im very fit, lift weights 5 times a week. i eat a healthy balanced diet. only "mental issues" ive ever experienced before would be just "ADD", ive always found it hard to focus on things i dont care for, other than that ive been fine. yeah i have no sex drive, but i can get aroused from pornography and stimulation. thank you for taking me seriously bro, means alot
sad to hear, least you can get away with wearing a wig.
thank you so much bro, i will look them up. have you had experience with charcoal pills? im not autistic u nimrod, im just desperate and very fucking depressed.
yeah, i thought it was the zinc but now i know 100% it was the rogain. i have seen a therapist about this and he doesnt take me seriously and implies its anxiety also, so i stopped seeing him.
problem is my body, its fucked up and i want to die... its not in my head... ive been alive for 21 years, i understand that u could have slight problems if its in ur head, but not to the extent where u never think of sex EVER.
Luis Lopez
>where u never think of sex EVER.
Your literally thinking about it right now. Else you would not have typed this.
I've got to be being trolled at this point this is fucking ridiculous
Ryan Johnson
you must be some sort of fucking 10 year old.
Bentley Gonzalez
>wearing a wig
Honestly that's just fucking depressing though. Also no man wants a gf that wears a fucking wig.
Alexander Allen
have u seen nicki minaj? all she wears is wig and i would fuck her in the ass (even still with no libido, i still would) a wig is fine, a good one and no one will even know you have a wig
this chick wears wigs, she has the same issue you does. she looks fine with wigs on
Jordan Sanders
Yes but she has afro hair underneath her wig/ her sew-in. Nothing's cute or femine about a bald head.
Jaxson Baker

OP fuck off pal, we struggle with maintaining a decent board as it is, Inbetween the female attention seeking, every Skinnyfat dyel asking sticky questions, feels, and now this bullshit.
Fuck off and post it on a relevant board, there's a medical board, an advice board, and a miscellaneous board.
I honestly hope your fucking dick falls off you fucking pussy.
Alexander Diaz
fuck your self
Dominic Rodriguez

Julian Anderson
i just wanna know if this is permanent .... im scared for my life and future... im only 21, anyone gone through this rogain on here? or am i 1 in a million :'(
Colton Sanders
for fucks sake mate people have given you loads of advice
you've got an anxiety issue and probably hormone issues
just go on a testosterone cycle with PCT and quit going on about it
you've probably got super high cortisol as well because of all you're whining and worrying
Nathan Gomez
oh and take some cialis and l-citrulline
there, 90% of your problems solved
Bentley Martinez
Tits or gtfo
Daniel Harris
>yeah, i thought it was the zinc but now i know 100% it was the rogain. i have seen a therapist about this and he doesnt take me seriously and implies its anxiety also, so i stopped seeing him.
He took you seriously, I take you seriously. You are not taking us seriously. I take you seriously when you say you have these problems because you know best yourself what you experience, but I don't take you seriously when you blame it on zinc and rogaine because you don't know shit about medicine.
You think saying it's a psychological issue is the same as saying you are actually fine, that it's not a "real" problem. You're not fine you're almost suicidal. The only reason I think it's psychological is because you are describing symptoms much too severe to be possible side effects of rogaine. Your symptoms are extremly typical for major depression and anxiety, that's why all professionals would diagnose you with that. I don't think you are delusional, I just think you're just ignorant and stubborn. That's why I try to explain this to you. A delusional person would not be bothered by the complete absence of reason behind his convictions. He would be able to believe rogaine was the cause of his problems despite not having any reason to believe so even on a subjective personal level. When you say you are 100% sure that rogaine is causing your problems that you realize on some level that it's not possible for you to be 100% sure of that. You can be wrong, I'm really really sure that you are wrong, but I'm not 100% sure.
See a fucking doctor again, he will send you to a therapist, and you need to fucking keep going to him.
Luis Myers
reminder to ignore this pasta.
Mason Williams
> im just desperate and very fucking depressed.
Well maybe that's the cause of your fucking problem?
Leo Bell
well bro it was either the zinc (which is a 5ar inhibiter that in excess gives these symptoms) or the rogain (is what i used when i got all these symptoms) i dont think delusions can create prostate/testicular/penile pain or penile shrinkage and joints to be sore for no reason.
the facts are, i have seen hundreds of people vouch the exact same symptoms as me from using rogaine, so i know im not alone. i just dont understand how this could happen. perhaps i applied too much? not sure, i also read rogaine can inhibit AR receptors, which can gives these sorts of side effects, but idk man, rogaine isnt very strong so im just perplexed as ever.
i just want to be my self again, i have become a completely different person from this experience and i just want to know if theres an end to it, which isnt suicide.
Joseph Kelly
>i experienced this before i even attributed it to rogaine >therefore rogaine caused it
Kevin Fisher
i was meaning i experienced these symptoms before i read about other ppl getting these same symptoms from rogaine. just to disprove that i read about the symptoms first
Camden Richardson
Literally all of your symptoms can be attributed to your depression.
Adrian Hernandez
i understand that but i think the depression is a symptom of some sort imbalance, just like the rest of the symptoms. depression cannot cause penile atrophy... i know it cant.
Michael Hall
>penile atrophy Your penis didn't atrophy, dumbass. You just have ED. Go get your fucking head checked.
Ethan Reed
Depression can cause sexual dysfunction too.
Jackson Morgan
It's a blood flow issue, not atrophy
Ask for some cialis
Luke Russell
my dick fucking shrunk, it has gotten smaller in its flacid state, the skin around it is way looser and i see veins that i never did before.
u think the cialis will make it go to its original state and keep it that way?
Chase Williams
Do you still get morning wood? Or do you not get it anymore since june 12th?
Jayden Anderson
I think OP killed himself.
Matthew Wood
ive had morning wood maybe 3 or 4 times since june 12th, they were all weak except 1. ive had nocturnal erections, though. ive had a few wet dreams too. and sometimes sexual dreams.
Thomas Carter
If you're having morning wood and wet dreams, it's a psychological issue. I highly suggest you see a psychologist. Nofap broke your brain.
Benjamin Sanchez
I ordered some of this a few years ago used it a couple of times then said fuck it and buzzed my head. When I had longer hair trying to conceal the sides receding I had no luck at all with women but since i've shaved it all off i've actually done a little better
Tyler Watson
3-4 morning erections in the span of almost 13 weeks is normal to you? bro im 21, i used to have them every single day, and so hard that i couldnt sit down to take a shit... definitely not psychological.
u made the right choice bro, being natural is what its all about
Cameron Diaz
Order some super male vitality and a water filter
Samuel Perry
>3-4 morning erections in the span of almost 13 weeks is normal to you? bro im 21, i used to have them every single day, and so hard that i couldnt sit down to take a shit... definitely not psychological. It definitely is psychological, you retard. If the cause was physical, you wouldn't be able to get them at all and the doc will tell you the same thing.
Benjamin Long
you're calling me a retard cause you think morning erections are psychological? ahahahahahha, you stupid fuck. even my urologist said to me that me having no morning erections is a sign that there is something definitely wrong with my body.
Joseph Williams
>you're calling me a retard cause you think morning erections are psychological? No, I'm calling you a retard for your obvious lack of reading comprehension.
Xavier Parker
mate, my body is fucked up and i got a tiny dick now. u tellin me its psychological is a joke. its obviously not, its clear as day its not. you just have no answers for me so u try tell me its in my head. cool, but it isnt and i wish it was.
Isaiah Allen
You're dick is smaller because of blood flow.
I had a smaller flacid dick when I was stressed, because stress fucks with blood flow.
Stop stressing so much, do cardio, and take L-Citrulline. Your blood flow will improve.
Luis Roberts
thank you bro, i will buy some L-Citrulline, have you tried it, and if you have how did you find it? you think i can stack macca root, tribilus with L-Citrulline?
Evan Ross
As much as it's fun watching you have a psychotic break because of your hypochondria, I've got shit to do.
Kevin Garcia

Wyatt Sullivan
You're 21. You have no business calling anyone a kid, kid.
Hunter Rodriguez
thought u had shit to do dingus
Easton Brown
Yep, it's pretty good. Made me have much firmer erections, and better morning wood. Made my dick bigger flacid as well.
It would work in a stack, but personally I'd try supplements one at a time to see how they work with you.
For example I've tried maca before and it was decent for energy but gave me insomnia, if I tried it in a stack I wouldn't have been able to troubleshoot it.
Elijah Rogers
thank you bro for your insight and feedback, i will purchase that stuff and give it a go.
Grayson Ward
You're a hypochondriac, like my brother. He puts clothes in sealed bags in fear of mold, puts a shit load of oil on his face to "protect" his eyes when leaving the house (from mold), and believes mold has ruined his physical appearance. He has had numerous blood tests/doctor visits and refuses to believe otherwise
Seek a therapist
James Gray
yea thats why i get dick/prostate/tesciular pain right, cause its in my head. pain is just in my head right? fuck off lol, idiot
Justin Phillips
He says the same exact thing
What would a topical DHT blocker have to do with that? If you visited a doctor and had tests taken, isn't it more likely that it's a mental issue? You're not being logical. We have overwhelming evidence of it not being a physical problem, but you refuse to even acknowledge the possibility of it being a mental one
Logan Hernandez
Stop being a little bitch. You have depression nigga. Stop focusing on sex and live life. Nothing is erong with you because you're still getting boners from porn. Your brain is desensitized from all the extremely hot women. Regular women don't look like that, so your penis is saying "nope that bitch is ugly" when you see women in the real world. You have a classic case of "Snob Boner" you can get erection unless they're naked and look like a model. Easy way to get rid of it. Stop look at pics and vidoes of hot women. All of them, if you're watching a movie or show and are like" damn that bitch is hot" turn that tv off. Look up kegels and vitamins to boost your erection bitch. Nothing wrong with you. You're just acting like a little bitch and you watched too much porn bro.

Well the people who get placebos for fin and min tend to get ED rates in the 4% range I think. You can check the safety studies for fin, I think like 7% or so get ED on fin, but 5% get it on the placebo, so they inferred that only ~2% of the ED with fin is actually caused by it.
