I Read That Breast Enlargement Reverses Once You Stop Propecia
I was just wondering about the doctor saying that going off the medication does not reverse breast enlargement. That is, frankly, a bit scary. Websites like Livestrong.org (not exactly Encyclopedia Brittanica but I’m tempted to trust it) say that all the side effects of propecia are reversible. Can you clarify?

In my experience, the few patients who had breast enlargement did not always reverse. I find that this one complication is the most persistent of all side effects and some of the patients ended up treating the breast lumps with surgery.
Doctor, your response doesn’t exactly allay my fears, though sounds like incidence is very rare. What I wanted to know is if there are signs of breast enlargement that occur before breasts actually enlarge? In other words , are there signals you could experience that might tip you to jump ship and get off propecia before you develop noticeable breasts? Other commenters have helped me with this question but I’m curious for your opinion. When things are irreversible their rarity is a little less comforting. Thanks.
