Propecia (finasteride 1mg) is out of your blood stream in a day. Tissue fixation can occur, but that is gone in a few weeks. You may have to see a urologist about your problem, as it may not be Propecia connected.

Withdrawal from long term use of minoxidil only causes you to lose what you gained from the drug, nothing more. Propecia (finasteride) goes after the actual cause of the hair loss, the DHT receptor that kicks the hair out while minoxidil does not. Propecia is better for men and is only approved for use in […]
That is a very good question. In my practice I generally tell my patients (if they are experiencing any negative sexual side effects which occur in about 1% of patients) to cut the pill in half and and then take a half pill daily. It is better to do this than take one pill every […]
I doubt that finasteride side effects have accumulated or “snowballed” over time. The side effects may NOT be related to Propecia (finasteride 1mg) and could be associated with your smoking (which does impact blood supply to small blood vessels) or even something else entirely (I don’t know your medical history, so I can only make […]
I can not explain what you are reporting. I am surprised at your theory, as Propecia is out of your body in a couple of days (half life of 5 hours for the drug in your blood stream). I can not respond to any of your symptoms from my experience, even on the oily hair […]
Propecia, hair loss, penis detachment, orgasm, ejaculation… OH MY! From the tone of your writing, I can see that you are very concerned about hair loss and sex. Worry not, for I would say you are like most men. If you obsess over something like your hair loss and image, you can produce impotence. Your […]
I tell patients that 1 in 100 men will experience a decrease in sex drive. However, I often find men are very prone to the power of suggestion, especially when it involves their manhood. For example, if there is a mention of decrease in sex drive, they may have a decrease in sex drive because […]
I often receive questions on finasteride (Propecia) from patients like you quoting “adverse” or “major” side effects. All drugs have side effects (even Tylenol), but when used correctly under the supervision of a qualified medical doctor it serves its purpose. I often find people are misinformed from the mass amounts of uncorroborated information available on […]
Stress impacts everything in our lives. Your hair loss and thinning is certainly (assuming you have genetic hair loss) being made worse by stress. Propecia sounds like it has slowed or stopped the present hair loss, but as male genetic hair loss is a progressive process, it is only a matter of time until you […]
If you are asking me if you should stop taking Propecia because your doctor is telling you that there are side effects that you are not getting, then I would say that such advice is not worth listening to and then suggest that you continue taking it. Did you have your scalp analyzed for miniaturization? […]
Just because your friend had a decreased libido with Propecia, does not mean that you will. If you try it and you don’t like it, you can stop it at any time and the problem will correct in a week or so. It is the BEST approach to hair loss in a young man, and […]
If you are not having a side effect at the 2mg dose, then I suspect that you will not see any side effects over time. I do not see a down side to taking the larger dose. The official dose response studies that I am familiar with show that 1mg is as effective as all […]
I believe that like most men, any potential threat to your manhood should scare the hell out of you. There are many ways to answer this question. The official FDA studies show that the difference between the placebo group and those that actual took Propecia, is less than 1% of men are impacted by a […]
Hello, my name is Ali. I wonder if you have any advice for me. I am 25 years old and took 1mg of propecia 5 and a half years ago (one tablet( because I was losing my hair. After taking the tablet I suffered side effects straight away, I developed gyno and have had persistent side […]
from the reports, the answer is yes! I suspect that you would have had to have experienced sexual side effects for some time for this to happen to you. There is still doubt in the medical community that this syndrome may not be real. I have no opinion one way or the other
