This is something you need to bring up to your primary doctor or the doctor who prescribed you the medication. Side effects you are attributing to the medication may be something totally different and you may have other health related issue. If it is a sexual side effect, many men in their 40’s have sexually […]

First and foremost, please follow up with your doctor and address your question to him/her. I have some issues with your history and you need to follow your doctors recommendation. If you are a Norwood 1 or even 3, I question if you should have been on Propecia. Propecia does not work to prevent a […]
First and foremost, I am not your doctor and I do not give personal medical advice on Baldingblog so this is not a place for you to obtain answers for your medical issues. If you do have erectile dysfunction, and you need to have that checked out as it probably has little to do with […]
For all practical purposes, the half life of Propecia (finasteride 1mg) in your blood stream is about 4-6 hours. This means the drug should be out of your blood stream in one day. This is why you need to take the medication everyday. Some believe there is a component of tissue fixation where some residual […]
Nothing has changed in recent times. For clarification, Propecia is a brand name of a generic drug named finasteride in 1mg strength. Proscar is also a brand name of a generic drug named finasteride but in 5mg strength. Avodart is a brand name of a generic drug named dutasteride in 0.5mg strength. Propecia is the […]
I have seen some men report an increased sex drive on Propecia although this is not common. Yes, once a man is freed from the burden of balding, they may be better on their sex side of life. Self confidence is necessary in good sexual performance.
A half a dose will work about 80% as well as a full dose. I would try one more time at the full dose but if the pain comes back, stick to the half dose. Have a doctor check out your chest and shoulder pain.
I doubt that there is any connection unless your protein shake has steroids in it.
1.) There isn’t science that shows finateride permanently alters your endocrine system, as far as I’ve seen. There is anecdotal evidence and claims by lawyers, that may point to this but this is not scientifically based. 2.) The sexual side effect of Propecia occurs in about 2 % of the men who take it. Chances […]
Yes, you should have him visit a doctor who uses the HairCheck device, which is a bulk measurement tool for the hair. I believe that this is important, because it tells us where he started from, then in a year when the measurement is repeated it will tell us where he is going with his […]
When the Propecia (finasteride) studies were performed that eventually led to the medication’s FDA approval, various doses were tried. The 1mg dose gave the most consistent results for treating hair loss. Above the 1mg daily dose, the results were no better than the 1mg daily dose; however, below the 1mg dose, it was found to […]
I suppose you could try it. To be thorough, I’d talk to your prescribing doctor before you make any changes to your medication. In two weeks, I doubt that you will lose the benefit of taking the finasteride over the past 4 months. The side effects should be gone by then (I’m not sure which […]
I don’t think I’ve met anyone who complained about experiencing premature ejaculation from Propecia (finasteride). I don’t see anything in the medical literature about it either, based on a few quick searches. It’s easy for people to pin random side effects onto finasteride, such as too much sensitivity, too little sensitivity, premature ejaculation, no ejaculation, […]
You need an examination of your breast tissue if you think you have gynecomastia. While it is a very rare potential side effect of Propecia, gynecomastia can even occur in young men who are NOT on Propecia. Having only taken the medication for a couple of weeks, it would seem even more unlikely. That said… […]
I’ll break your questions out to make it easier to answer — 1- Does medicine like propecia and minoxidil (medicine with the potential of regrowing hair) operate in cycles? ANSWER: Probably not 2- Are my small hairs shedding in order to make way to healthier, thicker hairs? ANSWER: I doubt that is the case 3- […]
