Very good presentation. Thanks a lot.

I have been using XYON 2.5% topical finasteride with 3% minoxidil gel daily for the past 1.5 months. After the first 2 weeks I noticed some sides such as loss of sex interest and more importantly loss of morning erection (which I used to have daily before starting the topical gel). To exclude the psychological effect, I kept using the gel daily hoping things would change if it was only in my head. Unfortunately, It’s still the same sides. My concern is that this 2.5 % is super high dose (=25 mg finasteride on scalp). So even if very little absorbed, say 5% of the 25 mg, it means 1.25 mg goes systemic which is like an oral dose). Any insight or feedback ?! On a side note, not sure if it’s of any relevance, two weeks after starting the gel, I experienced problems in the two arms joints (shoulder and elbows) little pain and stiffness especially at night. This never happened to me before so I wondered if it’s related to the finasteride or it’s just a coincidence!!

How much finasteride is in their topical solution and what else is in there
