It's really weird. Maybe i should go check my thyroid. Thanks!

Hello! I'm on the 8 month of treatment on finasteride, and I'm noticing a weird side effect. I'm losing my hair on lower legs, and it's not friction from the socks. It's really weird. I really got hairy legs, so it was easy to notice. The area has become so smooth, no hairs on it. And i see...

Yeah, lucky me. But it's a pain the *** too. I just dropped half the dosage of minoxidil to once a day instead of twice for 2 weeks now, and i can already see the hairs falling out, so i need to be at normal dosage. It's a real burden to have that gross minoxidil mix in my temples through the...

Norwegian government banned shipping of minoxidil to the country.. Need to buy it here.

Thanks!

Hopefully finasteride and minoxidil have worked pretty well for me. I'm only receding, and have pretty thick hair. Yeah, it's possible. Every person is different on how they lose their hair. Thanks, man.

How has finasteride affected your beard growth by the way? I still got a developing beard, Dark under cheeks, but white hairs on the chin and don't want to f*** that up. Really want dark hair on my chin too, it's slowly darkening on the chins, but and i hope finasteride doesn't disrupt this procsess.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try zinc and look into kegel exercises. Yeah, i understand what you mean, and I agree. I think i could pull off a buzz cut, but i need to get my bodyfat down (around 18-20% now) and my face does always get much fat when i have high body fat. And of course get more...

Yeah, me too. It's like when you have chest pain and then you go search for the internet and suddenly you have a heart disease and so on. This effect is really strong on people's minds. I'll try finasteride a little while longer, but I'm forced to quit if i can't function 100% sexually. Sorry to hear...

Hey! Sorry for a little wrong info, but I'm not 100% off finasteride. I've reduced the dosage to 0.5. But yes, i think those side-effects are pretty common. It's not that bad, but you can "feel" it. It's a hard choice. I really want my libido 100%, but i don't want to lose hair either. Hard choice...

I don't know mate, im not off it, i have just lowered the dose to 0.5. I actually feel a rise in libido, maybe its nocebo, or not. I can't say how the medicine functions on you.

Yes, i have male pattern balding. I understand good what you are saying, but hair loss comes in different patterns. I'm not disagreeing with you that I'm losing my hair. But i have checked with my family history of balding, and my uncles, father, and mother's father is losing the hair at 20-25...

"Balding" is a kinda harsh word to use. I can ask you why you are scaremongering because using "balding" when young people are receding is trying to introduce fear. A lot of people recede, and not become bald. I see this alot on this forum, every guy is like "hey guys am i receding" and the...

20, becoming 21 this year.

Yes, but don't worry, I'm not a hypochondriac. The sides i wrote I've experienced, especially more acne than usual. My libido is a little reduced, and weaker erections. I'm off 1 week now, and feeling better already. I could live with the side effects easy, and would probably go away. But...
