I would say it won't work that way, as it's prescribed for daily use. However, you might try the Proscar as it's taken 3x per week. Much cheaper, too, but I'm not sure about the libido thingy. I've been on sample Propecia for 2 weeks and haven't had that problem, but I'm getting the Proscar tomorrow.

Mahillakon,
I know that Dr. Beehner has written on this forum that he suggests his patients who experience libido problems try a smaller dosage. You may want to check with him or get the opinon of another physician on this. Falc To learn about how I restored my hair, read my hair restoration story with pictures. See also my hair loss weblog.

Check w/ your Doc for advice. I've always taken fin every other day based on Dr. Wong's advice. He mentioned that fin actively inhibits dht for a period of 72 hours so a daily dose is not necessary. It works for me.........I had minor regrowth in my hairline, which has stayed, so I'm sure it's helping stop or slow loss in other places which is why I use it.

I'm not going to make any recommendation for you because I'm not a Doc !However, my quote was exactly as Dr. Wong advised me. So, IMHO, daily is not necessary. That's how I've always taken it and I can tell you it works for me. Hope this helps!

after 3 years I havent had any libido issues with propecia, but it has made my semen watery like which can be embarrasing. taking fin every couple of days is worth a try.
