My story: About 6 months ago started finasteride. 2 weeks in, painful nipples. Noticed lumps but who knows, I may have always had lipomas there, but may have been coming out more due to the weight loss. Or it may have been the finasteride. Stopped after 3 weeks, because it was too painful...

Any one used this? Seems like just Saw Palmetto and some vitamins - ie. anyone who responds to this would likely respond even better to finasteride. I can't use finasteride due to horrible and rapid side effects. I am currently using revivogen and just praying it works. I was going to try some...

Apologies as I posted some of this in the "My Story" section but as this relates to finasteride, I'm posting it again in here. On finasteride for 1 month now (normal 1mg), and this week noticed sore nipples. No other sides until now. Have also noticed some lumpyness there (harder fat), some of what...

I'm 29, with no history of hair loss in my family. I have two brothers (one older) who have straight hair and no signs of loss. My dad is nearly 60 and still has a VERY full head of hair. My grandfather who is over 80 and has a mostly full head of hair, it's thin but he is over 80. Probably like...
