 1  Hair thinning Dizziness, vertigo, insomnia, erectile dysfunction, panic attacks Say far away from this poisonous drug. On the 2nd night I had an unnatural urge to CONSTANTLY masterbate which I thought was odd. On the 5th night I had a panic attack due to the dizziness and vertigo... I had insomnia that night too. The pendulum then swung far in the opposite direction and I had erectile dysfunction after that night. 5 days since my last dose I still feel dizzy and panicky quite often, however, my erectile dysfunction is already slowly improving. I hope my body can figure itself out in time. I have no idea how sexual dysfunction is not documented as a side effect of this toxic liquid. M 23 5 days

 1  Hair loss Libido vanished saw a user say this..... “Hey guys for cure i'have been used B-hcg, clomifen, tamoxifen for about 1-2 months and it really helped me. Drugs prescribed by the endocrinologist of course. Sorry for my grammar...... / My Endo just put me on just clomiphene to see if it “resets” things. (Dont’t go to your doctor without printed out reports and things like this, THEY WON’T TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY) I suggest also talking to your own endocrinologist He specializes in hormones, sends you a monthly subscription of stuff You can checkYouTube as well look up: Low T Nation M 28 2 months

 1  Hair loss Ed, shrunken penis, numb penis, difficulty breathing, fatigue After 4 months of use I began to have diminishing hardness of erections until I could not get erect at all. My penis shrunk and felt like it was paralyzed. I had no feeling there at all. I quit minoxidil after reading on this and other forums that this may be a side effect. For the first 4 days or so after quitting my penis hurt and swelled up. Over the next two weeks my penis regained feeling and I was able to get erect after two weeks. I decided to use minoxidil again and after one use my penis lost feeling within a couple hours and erections were not going to happen. I quit minoxidil again. It has now been 4 days and I just went through the pain and swelling in my penis again. The feeling is starting to come back. The loss of feeling in my penis and inability to obtain an erection was extremely disturbing. I will never use minoxidil again and hope I regain the full use of my penis. I write this only to help prevent others from experiencing this. No amount of hair is worth the loss of your penis. M 50 5 months

 2  Hair loss While on minoxidil (heavy dandruff, weak erections, reduced libido) while quitting minoxidil (complete impotence, sexual dysfunction, penis and testicles shrunk, constipation, anxiety, sleep problems, complete loss of libido, muscle spasms, penis and testicular numbness) I bought a generic version of rogaine at a local pharmacy. Started applying twice a day. I do have to say that I did apply more than the suggested dosage so maybe that is why I got all of the side effects. The product did stop my hairloss but at the end of 1 month I started noticing that my erections were pretty weak and that I was not interested in sex as I usually am. Minoxidil was the only thing I was taking and a quick google search confirmed that several other men were having the same issues as me. I quit cold turkey and felt no issues for the next 2 days. Then my penis completely died for 4 days. I could not have an erection no matter what I did! This was followed by stress and anxiety because of not being able to have an erection. (I also have a history of anxiety problems ) on the 4th day my erection came back at about 70%. On the following days it gradually got better until 1 day I crashed and returned to my original state of not being able to have erecrions. This only lasted 2 days and then once again my erections came back at about 85%. each day that went by they got better and during this time my libido was either at 0 or at 50%. Even though I was improving my anxiety did not go away and neither did the muscle spasm at night. I am currently 1 month off minoxidil and I am 90% recovered. I can now get erections that range from 90% to 100%. All other side effects have dissapeared except for the low libido. I am hoping this improves in the upcoming months. For recover M 28 1 months

 1  Hair loss Loss of sex drive, weak erections, no pleasure from orgasms, low ejaculation volume, smaller looking penis, tingling sensation in testicles, feelings of restlessness, mental fog. If you value your sex life at all DONT take this stuff. This is literally poison for your body and the FDA sweeps it under the rug. Do not believe the whole “there is no clinical study connecting ED with rogaine use”. Read what people say on here because this is as unbiased as it gets. I have stopped using rogaine foam for 2 days now and no improvement yet. Hopefully I’ll reclaim my sex life after this stuff took it away. It really isn’t worth it at all. Just take lots of vitamins that promote hair growth and eat healthy. M 22 1 months

 1  Hair loss Heart palpation, anxiety, shaky, weakness, brain fog, bad memory, trouble focusing, lower libido, erectile dysfunction. Thick hair growth on head. Have been using twice a day foam application for 2 months. Began to notice I didn't feel like myself, and erection were very soft after 1st month of use. The heart palpations and other side effects began almost immediately. I thought it was stress from work until I've read everyone's posts. Have thrown it out and hope to recover normally. Libido has only been slightly lowered thankfully and can still get hard erection some of the time while on the product. So hopefully will go back to normal after getting off of it. M 29 2 months

 1  Thinning hair The last post was mine. After the initial improvements, I have crashed again. It's been 2 months and my sexual function has not returned. All of the other issues are resolved. I get strange tingly feeling in my testicles and prostate. Minoxidil has recently been proven to be an antiandrogen which blocks 5ARII and suppresses the androgen receptors. I have zero libido, but am able to get a 100% erection which lasts with lots of effort, however the genitals are completely numb. I think there must be an existing pre-desposition and that's why this issue is so rare. Contact me if you have recovered to give me hope. M 26 40 days

 1  thinning hairline temporary erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, low ejaculate volume, dark circles under eyes, dry skin, diziness, headaches, low BP, puffy face, bloodshot eyes, increased sensitivity to light, long-lasting contraction of pelvic floor muscles (most likely the cause of ED), irritation to the urethra, anxiety, collagen depletion, insomnia, second line of eyelashes poking my eye, shall I go on? Holly Molly, I am not surprised they don't use this as a hypertenstive anymore. This stuff affects both your bloodstream and nervous system by raising Adrenaline and contracting some of your (smooth) muscles. A week after stopping, my libido is coming back and I can get a rock hard erection, morning wood and an occasional erection while seeing an attractive woman. The sensitivity is not back yet. However, I can see improvements every day. The volume of semen has also increased, but it is not back to normal. The bloodshot eyes, puffiness and the rest of sides are almost gone as well. If you're suffering from ED after taking this drug, ask your urologist to take a look at your pelvic floor. Some people think the ED could be due to contracted corpus cavernosum, but I would bet on the pelvic floor. M 26 40 days

 1  To reduce thinning hair Some hair regrowth on the crown but seems to have caused some ED and loss of libido. Before taking the stuff I had great EQ and libido and since taking it interest in sex has plummeted, sexual stamina has decreased dramatically and my sex life has suffered big time as a result M 38 2 years

 1  Balding Completely fried my penis. Have no sex drive and don't feel orgasim at all. This is permanent. I'm a worthless man and i will be dead because of government(FDA) corruption / complete incompetence and greed by big pharma (Johnson & Johnson). It's all about the large sums of money being made off of desperate hairless sufferers.They have known all the true side effects from early on. And the doctors are arrogant, greedy and incompetent common sense lacking imbiciles. M 35 5 months

 1  for facial hair growth Only used the product for 5 days but am still experiencing erectile dysfunction side effects 8 months on!! After only a couple of days on this poison i thought it was odd my penis was looking smaller/feeling different. then on the 5th day i felt horny so went to masturbate and couldn't achieve an erect penis. was at about 25%. this had never happened before either in sex or masturbation. this alarmed me and then i realized i hadn't been waking up with morning erections since i had been on it. so i immediately stopped the rogaine as i knew it was the drug causing it. the sexual side effects immediately improved over the first 6 weeks. however they have leveled out and not got any better since. I rarely get morning erections and when i do there at only 50%. very rarely get involuntary erections during the day when before I would get at least one a day. during masturbation or intercourse my erections have not returned to 100%. maximum they go to is 75% and it goes down very quickly with M 29 5 days
