Finasteride Side Effects After 2 Weeks

[vinnievandall]

hi,

i have been taking finasteride since the 9th of june 1 mg a day.
the first week i didn't really had sides
but now on week 2 i have very weak erections a very low libido and i have pain in the base of my penis after an orgasm.
i would like to know if any of you guys had these problems on finasteride and if i should stay on the drug or just quit it.
also i'm sure it isnt a placebo
also when i quit the drugs when are the sides going away ?

ps sorry for my bad english

I did experience the exact same side effects the first week i started using finasteride. Penile pain is real.

Sides will probably go away upon stopping the drug but you never know.

I experienced the same sides but I continued because someone on the forums said the sides will go away, I stayed on finasteride on and off after 4 years and to this day I dont get morning wood anymore, I can get boner but I really have to focus, before Id pop a woody with ease and it would stay hard now it goes limp.

Also depression, and testicle pain.

My memory is screwed up from finasteride as well, I used to have amazing memory but when on it I got bad brain fog, I been off finasteride for over 7 years and still have the sides, the depression and insomnia is gone but I got some brain fog from time to time and the low libido.

I might have to get on TRT now.

of i stop finasteride now do i have more chances to recover from the sides or are these permanent ?

Those are pretty much normal side effects for some first time finasteride users, including me. But after 2 months it all goes away for me and now everything's back to normal. It's up to you if you wanna continue it, I stayed on it for 4 months and had good results, actually got my hair back on top

I didn't have problems "getting it up" but it took longer than usual for me to c*m. Yes I did experienced that, and lost all morning boners. But like I said it all went away after 2 months.

I stopped. Now i am very diffuse NW5 and i shave my head so i am a bald guy to an average person. I'm 23 btw. I have a good skull shape and wide shoulders so these helps but nothing compared to my full haired self. I chose having a libido and perfect erections over my hair. I tried finasteride 2 times and got severe sexual side effects both times so i had to quit.

Do i regret it? No.
Would i be much happier if i kept my hair with intact sexual function? Yes.

What Norwood were you when you started using it? Im a diffuse NW1.25 right now at 21 yrs old and been on it for 9 days. So far I experience low libido+ no more random boners.

Man if you want to keep your hair you can use it, but if you want to enjoy life and have boners Id stop using it

Man it sucks I have to focus to keep my boner up, the erections go limp unless im holding it and trying to focus, before Finasteride id have rock solid boners its almost like the blood isnt flowing anymore

I heard its because it messes with your testosterone. I might have to get on TRT.

I dont get morning wood anymore, and I will get depression off and on especially at night ill feel like a loser or failure and cant sleep

I never had this before Finasteride.

I even did the every other day and half a pill method.

The thing is it really did keep my hair from falling and I was one of those who actually had regrowth after a half a year, I shaved my head to the skin when I started taking it and let it grow out and it grew thicker I saw the small vellus hairs growing on the front of the scalp after a year they were getting thicker and thicker. I shaved my head again in the summer and they fill in

now 7 years later I have jude law hair line the hair fell out and my scalp is greasy it sucks.
