Minoxidil Sexual side effects

[anxiety124]

Guys,

I don't like saying this but your effects are purely psychological. Millions and millions of people use minoxidil, and there is no reported study on permanent sexual side effects. Only one study in India (after 4months) reports sexual side effects TOGETHER with other major side effects including palpitation, chest tightness, dizziness. AND it says that the entire side effects went away when the person discontinued the drug. Here is the study:

If you are having palpitation, chest tightness, dizziness, your body is probably giving an allergic reaction to the drug and of course your libido will go away as well! You cannot have libido when you have chest tightness! Libido is a tricky thing. Being anxious automatically zeros your libido!

This is what happens: you have low self esteem or anxiety for some reason (could be work related or relationship related), you cannot get as hard one time or two times, you think something must be wrong with you. Later, you search for the 'causes' of a temporary erection failure. Da-da! You find minoxidil to blame! Some overthink about erection failure and turn this into a permanent condition due to anxiety.

Notice that vast majority of people who wrote on this forum disappeared after telling crazy things about how their lives are destroyed by minoxidil. Probably they had a good sex once and forgot about all the crazy shit they were talking about.

Some talk about how their libido sometimes 'comes back' and later 'goes away'. If there is any permanent damage, this wouldn't have been possible.

I am writing all of these for those guys who experienced a low libido or erection problem once and googled 'minoxidil and ED' to find these kinds of forums. Friends, it is literally impossible for minodixidl to have this effect permanently on you. If you are too concerned, simply discontinue the drug. Take a rest, relax and try to enjoy your time. Cheers.
