woke up this morning with no wood.
and coulnt complete my last work outs, was too tired and weak.
it is not worth it, and I think my penis may have shrank a little but could possibly be psychological.

this is isn't worth it,
so I am quitting, but I am afraid of post porpecia syndrome.
been using it for 22 days, do you think I will make a full recovery?

Yes you will be fine, don't panic or else you'll start to get paranoid and develop psychosomatic symptoms that aren't there. If you want full advice, tell us a little more about your age, post a picture of what your hair looks like, and tell us what dose you were taking.

FYI: 22 days in, it is very likely that the side effects will subside when your body adjusts. Post-finasteride syndrome is NOT something that has been scientifically established. If it IS real, it seems to affect <0.01% of the population (my own estimate, not a figure I'm quoting from any real source).

ummm sorry no pics, I am advanced nw2 wanted to catch it early.
I am 22 years old.

so yeah I guess it was just psychological.
this morning I got a hard wood, and this couldn't be because of not taking the pill for just one day could it ?

so I guess I would resume taking the pill, how long should it take for the sides to subside?

Sex drive/penis engorgement is a combination of proper ratio of estrogen and dht.

Lowering dht causes free testosterone to increase which may covert to estrogen. So too low dht or too high of estrogen could be a factor.

Maybe get a blood test to see where all your levels are at with and without propecia to find your perfect dose.

This is what worked for me: take some zinc supplements.
I swear by it. I am now able to do my thing several times a day with a good erection.
