    dark circles under eyes?

    Been using fin and rogaine for about 6 weeks.. is this a common side effect, possibly just a coincidence, but have never noticed circles under my eyes before.

                Yep, it's a minoxidil side effect, i'm sure of it. I didn't get it bad and noticeable this time, not as bad as last year when I was using kirklands liquid twice a day. It might wear off, or it might stay like that. My advice is to ride it out for 4-6 months and see what happens. It might be our body reacting to minoxidil and getting used to it?

                Back when I was using a lot of kirklands minoxidil liquid twice a day(like 4ml a day), in my worst times, I had friends asking me if I was in a fight, because of how bad I had dark circles. They wore off months and months later, I had no dark circles at all. It happened again this year when I restarted it, and again it wore off.

                  Did the dark circles wear of while you were using minox?

                    I used minoxidil for a few weeks, twice a day and noticed more shedding and bags under the eyes...stopped using it and now just finasteride (0.25 mg/day) and oral GLA (borage oil)
