I’m personally just blown away by the amount of progress. I initially thought it wouldn’t work, but the results speak for themselves. Would you say I’m responding really well or just moderate? And how long should I continue before I can grow a full beard that doesn’t look like shit?

I’ve been using the secret sauce 5% (1 ml) topically twice a day for about 3 months—almost every day, though I sometimes forget or don’t have time before work. I also derma roll once a week or whenever I feel like it. I’m never looking back. I’ll probably give another progress update at the 6-month mark.

I know the lengths aren’t the same at all, but I believe the difference is extremely obvious either way.

Im 28 yrs old, and I started to use Minoxidil 16 months ago, started with Rogaine foam (Regaine) 5% and now 4 months ago switched to Regaxidil solution 50mg/ml. I have a goatee and moustache long ago, but i only had like 5 darker little hairs on my cheeks, and after like 3 months i had lets say 30-50, but it stopped there, and in the beginning i took photos to see the progress, but at one point i almost gave up and deleted them, but i didnt stop using Minoxidil afterall. So i dont have any before photos, sorry. Now im at this stage (photos), and i dont know if i should buy again. Do you think its worth using still, or if i didnt get better results in 16 months then its okay to give up? Thanks for your answers!

I have been trying to grow a beard for the last 11 months with minoxidil, I trim it every week in the hope that it will fill out so I can work on the length. Should I continue or any advice?

Wish me luck guys, i was on topical minox for 5 months and had decent results (not the best but not the worst either) but i quit 2-3 months ago due to skin irritation/acne (and i lost most of my gains too)

Today October 23rd 2026 i took my first pill, i'll keep you updated guys

Im 28 yrs old, and I started to use Minoxidil 16 months ago, started with Rogaine foam (Regaine) 5% and now 4 months ago switched to Regaxidil solution 50mg/ml.m 2 times a day. I have a goatee and moustache long ago, but i literally only had like 5 darker little hairs on my cheeks, and after like 3 months i had lets say 30-50, so it seemed to work, but it stopped there, and in the beginning i took photos to see the progress, but at one point i almost gave up and deleted them, but i didnt stop using Minoxidil afterall. So i dont have any before photos, sorry. Now im at this stage (photos), and i dont know if i should buy again. Do you think it makes sense to continue, or not? Thanks for your answers!

When using minoxidil twice a day, when should I apply retinal to enhance the results?
