I'm not familiar with horny goat weed. What might it do for me?

What other topicals are proven to work for preventing further loss? From what I've read on gourmetstylewellness.com's main website, Revivogen and topical Spironolactone (S5 cream) are the go to. But there aren't many threads on this forum of men using those products.

My desire is significantly reduced. And when I do do it, I'm less aroused, and it's somewhat forced. To put it simply: sexually, everything still works in my body, it's just operating at 35% of what it should be for my age. Over the last 2-3 years, there were many times where I'd masturbate...

Thanks for the replies, everyone. Yes, I'm aware I'll likely begin losing my hair. All things considered, it's not my biggest priority anymore. My health is my biggest priority, and inhibiting 5AR-II might be dangerous for my long-term health. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather not lose my hair, but...

Thanks for the reply. Doesn't the research indicate that any amount of finasteride above 0.2mg--whether it's 0.2mg, 0.5mg, 0.75mg, or 1mg--will inhibit most DHT production? If that's the case, wouldn't lowering my dose have little effect? For example, if I took 0.75mg for a few weeks, then 0.5mg...

Hi folks, I've been taking 1mg of Finasteride since January 2006. I was 22 then. I'm 31 now. In terms of hair, it worked great. I have 100% of the hair I did when I started--more, even. However, being a little older now, and a little wiser, I'm beginning to feel that altering my hormonal...

Having thought more about this, I should also report that over the last 4 years, my nocturnal and morning erections have mostly disappeared. I get them about 2-3 times a month, as opposed to every day. And they're soft erections, at best. At 31 years old, I doubt that 2 morning erections per...

Thanks for the responses. And I agree, there are many reasons one can experience a low libido. I do recognize non-finasteride factors (such as age, long-term relationships, having a "grown-up" job, etc.) play a part, but I feel finasteride is also contributing. My main question to the forum...

Hi all, it's been ages since I last posted here--almost 10 years. I came back to write this post in the hopes that some experienced and knowledgeable forum members will read my story and offer some advice. I've been taking 1mg of finasteride daily since January 30th, 2006, which is 9 years + 2...

Alright, so I've been taking 1/5 of a tablet of Proscar daily for the last 2 months (no side affects), and I'm now contemplating adding Nizoral shampoo to my regimen. I've noticed that many of the users on this forum are big proponents of this product, but why? What exactly will using this...

thanks for the link. cheers.

For you people with proscar prescriptions, how do you deal with the irregular shape of the tablets? Merck is adamently trying to prevent people from cutting their pills into quarters. Do you just cut them into quarters to the best of your ability, or has everyone switched off of Proscar to a...

I'm going to start taking finasteride. pretty soon here, probably next week, and I'm a little curious as to when I should start taking minoxidil. Should I take the finasteride. for about one year before adding the minoxidil to make sure finasteride's working? My concern is that I don't want to start both intitially; I'd like...

On Monday I'm going to get a prescription for propecia. I've done a fair bit of research, and I've read various opinions on how long the preliminary "test-run" of the drug should be. Some people have claimed you should take it for one full year to see if you recieve results, does this sound...

You clearly aren't doing too much critical thinking, so allow me to do it for you. With such a statement you're implying a god exists. However, similar to any archetypal theological arguments declaring the existence of a god, you're forgetting that by making a positive assertion such as "god...
