Loss of libido is not even on a list of "very rare" side effects from minoxidil (OR from Loniten tablets). I have never heard of anyone (besides you) complaining of loss of libido from minoxidil. Are you using anything else that may cause this effect - saw palmetto, Propecia, Dutasteride, Beta-Sitosterol, etc.? The lack of evidence that minoxidil causes loss of libido is probably the reason why you have not received any replies - I don't think anyone was ignoring you. Maybe you have seen loss of libido on a list of side effects??? I only checked on a few sources including the Mayo Clinic and Merck.

Minoxidil and erections??
Post reply

I don't recall ever hearing somebody complain about a loss of libido with minoxidil usage, but I _have_ heard about something else that's along somewhat similar lines: the use of topical minoxidil on the penis, to help stimulate erections!

That was mentioned a few times in years past on alt.baldspot, and it was (supposedly) something that really did have such an effect. Haven't heard any more about that in a long time, though. The whole idea may be just an urban myth.

Actually, Ive never experienced this but my brother is taking this now and says he is experiencing this so I thought I would post that here and see what anyone else thought.

Hi,

Minoxidil can cause decrease of sexual ability or desire ( But very rare and occurs only if too much of medicine is absorbed in to the body).

I think there is more involved here that he is not telling me. Ive been using Costco brand Minoxidil with no problems but according to him he is using rogaine. I dont think there is anything different but???
He knows my issues against propecia, I had some bad sides from it and I warned him against trying it. Im wondering if he went ahead and is taking it.
Thanks for the link
