Hi I am 33 year old male. My problem is I have a very patchy beard. Hairs are present on face but not dense enough. I am planning to use minoxidil 5% to fix this. Just wanted to know if it'll have any side effects. To be honest I did try minoxidil almost a decade ago but didn't continue as I faced some increased heart beat. Is it like I will face that problem again? Or I can give a try again? Please suggest.

Yes. Minoxidil has side effects. We have an excellent hair growth formula which is used for beard also. It's a mix of 3, 4 organic herbal hair oils, serum, spirulina etc. If hair root is intact, very sure of growth. There are some vitamins and other things like traditional methods to be used with this oil. U need to consult. Send pic and talk.
