Look at the bright side. If you're impotent, you don't have to worry about premature ejaculation! |

I am experiencing a lot of the side effects from Propecia. My wife is starting to complain.... But my hair looks good. (LOL)

Bad side effects. I was told that they were rare. Well, I guess I'm in the minority (a 1% chance? BS!)....
I'd stay away from the stuff if you want your crank to crank. |

I thought there were higher rates of side effects with Avodart, I'm surprised your better now. I wonder if maybe you were just in better shape 7 years ago?

Hey Guys,
There are not a lot of reported side effects with the original propecia, however the generic propecia has more reported cases of side effects than that of the original. My advice is by the original, the extra cash it costs is worth it. (Signature removed by Falceros - Co-Moderator of this community due to promotional material.

I'm not anti-finasteride - obviously it works well for a good number of people.
But I think Merck have not been entirely honest about the <2% quote of side effects. (Obviously there are a lot of ways to fudge numbers to sound better.) Anyway, my personal experience is that I took it for a week, after 2 days there were side effects (weaker erections). It's definitely not psychosomatic. I'm not going to go into detail, but you'll just have to take my word for it that I was (and still am) pretty confident, sexually and the side effects just blindsided me. It took me a while to put 2 and 2 together. I thought about just taking it and riding it out, but some of the horror stories of guys in their 30's who are completely finished, sexually put me off. They say that continuing with the treatment helps and the side effects will go away after a few months. But there are whole communities on the internet of guys who have suffered side effects that have not gone away. That scares the crap out of me. I want to keep my hair, but I want to keep my sex life even more, and I don't want to risk persisting with finasteride. |

Wow dude...this is a really old post. Mr. Jobi is probably the only one still active here.

Oh sorry. I was just doing some more reading on Propecia and viable alternatives, so I was doing a search. I didn't even look at the datestamp.

xxy,
I'm exactly in the same situation as you. I started taking finasteride a month ago and my libido has definitely decreased. I've decided that i'm going to start taking it every other day to see if this helps me with the side effects. Its definitely very scary when it happens to you. I've just had a hair transplant and don't really have that much native hair left. The only reason I am taking it is to see if it helps with the crown and to keep the sides strong. Some people have suggested that the side effects subside after using it for a while. Has anyone experienced side effects early on and persisted with the medication? If so have the side effects gone after a while??? I know this is an old topic but still very relevant to a lot of people suffering from these side effects. Most people are lucky not to experience sexual side effects but if you do experience them its quite a shock to the system. Being a youngish guy it can really depress you make you feel very inadequate. The whole reason to getting a hair transplant is to build your confidence but if it means losing my libido by taking this drug then I don't want any part of it. I just hope its temporary. My next step will be to incorporate a strong exercise program and better diet/supplement regime which may help to increase my libido. Any thoughts guys? |

I've stopped taking proscar now its been 5 days and i'm still experiencing decreased libido. I'm hoping this will go away by two or three weeks.
Joker28 you would need to make your surgeon aware that you cannot take finasteride due to sides. Then you would need to get some advice from him as to how he will address future hair loss. I'm in the same position and worried about it but i'm going to start using minoxidil and see if that helps. Just my opinion. |
