Propecia Might’ve Bent My Penis… But It Might’ve Been That Way Before
I have been taking 1mg finasteride to treat hair loss for more than a year. I have been facing problem of reduction in sperm quantity. I also get stomach upset and gas trouble on the next day after i masturbate. After reading about the side effects in internet i have now decided to quit. Will the side effects go after i discontinue?? I also find that my penis is bent sidewards (dont remember if it has become after i started taking the medicine). Pls advice
Where is your doctor in dealing with your problems? That is where you should be evaluated, not on the Internet. Starting and stopping finasteride is not something you should take lightly if you are really balding. Sounds like you are psyched up from taking this medication.
With regard to your penis, many men have a bend to their erect penis and this is normal, that is, unless the bend makes it non-functional, in which case you need a doctor to address the problem. The reduced sperm volume with finasteride is a well know side effect (not low sperm count, just a reduced ejaculate), but there is no way that your penis will bend from finasteride.
