My Doctor Refused to Give Me a Proscar Prescription

Hi Dr. Rassman

My doctor refused to give me prescription for proscar telling me that the drug will minimize my prostate and that long term use will cause me permanent libido problems. Now i consider buying the drug from internet. What’s your opinion? Thanks.

I would see another doctor. Finasteride 1mg will not give you permanent libido problems.

You need to be followed by a doctor and have a doctor’s prescription for taking this medication. More importantly, you need to have a good diagnosis of what you are treating before you start any medication. I do realize you can buy many medications without a doctors prescription over the Internet, but that is not a smart thing to do, nor is it exactly legal.
