I have decided to start using propecia, not an easy decision thanks to online scaremongering and horror stories but at 34 and noticing an increase rate of diffused thinning I decided to take action. Especially after mother saying 'you're thinning like your dad', yeah thanks mum! He was a NW5 at 40 and I'm not quite ready for that. Unfortunately I don't have the features to pull off a buzz cut and look very young for my age. I only want to buy some time so my face can catch up with the ageing process.
Anyway.... I'm going to use this thread as my diary and personal record and maybe someone will find it useful who may be too scared to start using propecia.

Took my first 0.5mg propecia pill before bed, funnily enough I got ball ache before taking it. Ah the placebo effect and the power of the mind (thanks scaremongering) ;-).

Nothing to report during the day. Took another 0.5mg before bed, I will be doing that unless stated otherwise. Woke up in the morning with a heavy ache in my right testicle.

The ache came and went during the day. I think this is pretty much in my head so will preserve.

The right testicle feels like it's taking a beating, coming off for the weekend.

Started again still at 0.5mg.

Nothing to report. No ball ache since taken it again. Could this be my body has adjusted or my mindset (placebo effect) has changed.
