    Default Is Rogaine a dht blocker??

    I just received my rogaine, and I've been reading on the net about sideeffects and all that, and apparently it is a dht blocker? that really scares me, could you have impotence? I'm 33 right now. It also talked about aging in the face? God, what a nightmare hairloss is.

    No, it is not. Propecia is a DHT blocker.
    Rogaine has minimal sides, Propecia causes impotence not Rogaine

    Thanks, I just had read it on an article online and thought it was weird. Is there anything that works better? The info on the package says it won't even work for hair loss in the front of your head.

    The only thing that will work better is finasteride, but it has side effects that a lot of people dont want to deal with.
    Rogaine may work in the front of your head. If its an area with at least a slight amount of hair left, theres a chance.
    I use Rogaine and its been very effective for me, in a short time.

    I still have a little hair all over but it's little.

    I hate to say it but it sounds to me that finasteride (propecia) will be much more effective for you. And if you use both at the same time it could be very effective. A lot of people do take finasteride with minimal sides, the majority. Maybe it would be worth consulting with a good dermatologist about.

    I don't know, is it really worth it? I googled the results for Rogaine, and it's not very impressive, I also started to get some headaches?? Not actual headaches but like a tightness around my head.

    I'm also getting a twitching in my left eye when I wear it, and maybe I am paranoid but I haven't woken up with an erection or had any erection since I began, just rather weak ones.
