Dear members and Moderators,
I started using the drug Finasteroid(Finax)since 20days. From last 3days i'm facing testicular pain. I hope this is only because of the drug.

Could any one suggest me what to do at this situation please?

Thanks,
Aanibus

Aanibus,

Testicular pain is a possible side effect of finasteride. Stopping the medication should eliminate this. I know some physicians suggest stopping for a time and then starting up again at half the dosage as it may minimize/eliminate the risk of the side effect while still benefiting you by treating baldness on some level. You can also find information about finasteride's potential side effects at www.propecia.com.
But consult with a physician for medical advice.

Best wishes,

Falc
