I can’t get testosterone medication, but I heard minoxidil can help. But I need some advice on how to start.

I can’t get it anywhere except for a drug store over the counter or amazon. I can’t get a prescription by myself and if I get it from a special store my parents will find out if They check out my card and thats not good for me.

What drugstores sell over the counter minoxidil? I live near a CVS and a Walgreens. If I have a bad chance of getting it there, what kind is good on Amazon? I have a lot of questions about it so list them out.

1. Is there really a difference between men’s and women‘s minoxidil?
2. should I get the oil, foam, cream, spray, or pill? I would rather not pill because of trauma related to them that causes extreme emotional reactions, but if it’s the only kind that actually works I’ll take it anyway.
3. Is there any risk in a cheap minoxidil? Not like normal side effects but like if cheap stuff will damage the skin it’s good to know.
4. If anyone gets it on Amazon and It works please link it.
