Brief Answer: No need to worry. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your query. I appreciate your efforts for medical consultation in so much distress. Minoxidil works by helping the blood flow to the hair follicles and increasing follicular size and hair shaft diameter, stimulating and prolonging hair growth. Minoxidil is not linked to erectile dysfunction. Even many researcher tried it in treatment of erectile dysfunction also with non conclusive result. On net any person can write about the side effects they experienced but we should not take them on the face value as other factors (temporal relationship, use of other medicine, psychological factors and presence of other medical issues) need to rule out to confirm side effect with some medicines. Always believe in research findings mentioned in some authentic website like PUBMED and NCBI. Even side effect with medicines do not occur in all patient like in your case. In my view there is no need to worry in your case. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups. Wish you good health. Regards, http://bit.ly/Dr-Ashish-Mittal
