Taking Proscar for My Prostate and Noticing A Smaller Penis When Relaxed
i was reading about the men who noticed after using dht blockers their penis felt tighter or smaller. its interesting, i am 43 and take testosterone due to low testosterone. i was given proscar to keep my prostate smaller because testosterone can sometimes enlarge the prostate. i switched to generic finasteride approx 2 years ago when proscar was too expensive. i also noticed a tighter feeling and smaller when relaxed only my erections are still rather tight and large.
but know this, i am rather large for my size my doctor always said i was in the top group for large penis size (i am not trying to brag i just want to explain all details). i still have large hard erections but i felt when relaxed i wasnt hanging as heavy and it was more tight. lately i added ginko biloba and ginseng and saw palmetto herbs and noticed the sag heavy feeling came back. those herbs increase circulation. what finasteride may do by blocking dht is slow blood flow to the penis, therefore resulting in its feel or size. but my question is, has anyone gotten off the drugs and did the penis go back to normal? thanks
I have no studies to reference your question, nor have any of my patients reported a smaller penis from the finasteride. A limp penis is normal and it changes based upon what you do. Go into a cold shower and it will shrink even more. It seems to me that you are taking some control in what you are doing but really do not know what works, right?
