After 3 months or so on propecia, I can feel my hair growing back thicker and stronger and seeing less of my scalp. I\'ve been feeling better as I feel it\'s working but I feel my libido has been diminished. It\'s not bad but I can tell that it\'s not the same. I can still get erections but not as strong. I guess there\'s always going to be a give and take when it comes to medication

Have you tried generic finestride instead of propecia? I heard its less sides.

I use the generic now. Its been a couple of months. Haven\'t had any issues. The dr. doesnt even recommend taking it daily anymore.
It could get way worse. Symptoms can persist indefinitely even after drug cessation. Damn! Why won\'t you fucking listen to me???!!! Perhaps you should up your dosage and grow more hair. You\'ll look fabulous and uber sexy. Too bad you\'ll have no libido, irreversible impotence and androgen resistance. I told you to Google the side effects. There\'s thousands of young men in their 20\'s (sexual prime) that will never have sex again without a penile implant and likely won\'t even be motivated to do so. DHT does NOT cause hair-loss!!!!!!! It is very important androgen in men. DHT is only a piece of the puzzle in androgenic alopecia. Try a topical or PRP or spring for a transplant. Systemically inhibiting DHT is extremely harmful. Sorry if I come across as condescending but I fucking warned you 1,000 times.

Medilock, I write this as someone who stood in your exact shoes.
I took propecia for 1 year, and had some sides. Yes I did look fabulous and uber sexy as miracle puts it. I did have a full libido, but my body didn\'t always respond. I Went off of it for a while. Everything went back to normal, as is the case most often. I decreased my dose, which is working fine for now. However I still consider not taking it. I was just at a bar and saw myself in the mirror. Thought I might look better with a 1 shaved head.
In your situation medilock, I really don\'t think age and baldness have a correlation with your ability to pick up women. To say that because you are young and bald you are screwed and won\'t get any chicks is irrational. Check out these guys, they could get tons of pussy. Yes, I know some of them have shaved heads, but most of those shaved heads are because they have significant hair loss.
If you have been taking propecia for at least 30 days and are taking 45 minutes to get off, or experiencing weak erections let me save you the time and tell you it probably won\'t get better. You can try for another 30 days if you want, but if there is no improvement after 60 days its not gonna happen.
My suggestion to a guy in your spot would be to quit the drug. Watch Fast Five, then the entire fast and furious franchise. Considering hitting the gym and make some serious diet and lifestyle changes to get down around 10% or bellow body fat and put on some lean muscle. I wouldn\'t recommend steroids as they will fatten your face, but I would def recommend working out and getting cut. Your gonna have to pay attention to fashion, and get some sort of style. If after taking some time off, when your sex drive returns, and you are still worried about hair loss, buy a pill cutter and try taking 1/4 of 1mg every other day.
This is kind of stupid, but I see hair on a guy is an equivalent to tits on a woman. Hair and tits play no functional role in life or sex, but a set of DD tits (lucy pinder), or full head of hair (brad pitt), are elements of physical attractiveness. That being said, there are plenty of hot women with no tits. I would fuck the shit out of mena suvari, kate bosworth, keira knightley...etc. I\'m sure women feel the same way about martin kampmann, ilari sahamies, ville kinos, freddie ljungberg, matt holliday, jonathan statham, and of course vin diesal. etc. ( I mean listen to the women in the crowd in the first vid, or the hosts dripping their panties in the second. Probably soaked from 2:50 on)
Finally don\'t give me that, those guys are famous bullshit excuse, you would still drool over kate bosworth whether she was a movie star or a waitress. Those hosts would still get wet whether jonathan statham was a movie star or selling fake gucci bags.
But if hairloss still bugs you, like I said, after you go off fin, and everything returns to normal, consider lowering the dosage, which I do. However I still am not sure its worth the trouble and occasionally debate those thoughts I just shared.
Thedude thanks for the advice tips and also to miracle a well. I deft don\'t feel good about having to take the drug the rest of my life in order to keep my hair. I feel uneasy about it especially the past couple days. I\'m gonna try pro for a few more days and see if my libido returns and orgasm comes back.
I just feel like I look like an alien with a complete bald head. Even when I buzz my head to 1, you can see my norwood 6 balding pattern even with hair buzze that close which sucks. I would have to completely shave my head with a razor which I don\'t want to do cuz it looks ugly and aesthetically un-appealing

In that case do some cardio in the a.m. to rule out brain fog/depression or general lethargy. Buy some l\'arginine at gnc, or order it over night on the web (same price). Don\'t force yuorself to get an Erection, rather wait till your in the mood lol. Thats all I got.
After I quit I first thought I was good after about 2 weeks. Looking back now I would say I was fully recovered after 4 weeks.
I just completely bic\'d my head. It\'s such a bad look I don\'t think I can go out walking around with my bald head. It looks pathetic. Anyone have success with propecia besides kingpin?
