Health Do not take finasteride EVER for hair loss.

Up for more experiences with this, I'm thinking of starting minoxidil.
 
I guess that’s the good thing about getting little action — can’t have performance issues if there is no performance.

This shit is toxic poision and drug. Imagine believing that something created to fix prostate and cancer issues, by reducing an important male hormone (that's 5x more androgenic than test) like DHT, is the key and way to slow down/stop hair loss.

Funny thing, it's not even permanent, as soon as you come off you lose the gains. All for what, some hair?

Dumbest thing ever to take this garbage drug which can give cognitive and mental issues, by reducing 5ar inhibitors and neurosteroids (and allopregnone) and sexual issues like low libido, ed, problem ejaculation, sperm, due to hormone changes.

hormones also mess with fertility.

If you're balding, get HT, System or minox + dermaroller and some ok stuff.

DO NOT EVER TAKE FINASTERIDE OR DUTASTERIDE, NOT ORAL NOT TOPICAL.

I'm having issues in nearly all things in my life, due to that.

I will second everything in the post.
 
So did OP have his side effects reversed when he discontinued finasteride?

I took a quarter tablet once and spent the next two days with obscenely sensitive nuts, like someone had booted them and I was in the acute stages of recovery.

I'm hoping minox is better tolerated (and works).
 
If you're bald, just have your wife tell you that you look like Jason Statham to make yourself feel better.

Most sides reversed but still have some unfortunately
 
I’m a friend of TS. He has a few physical limitations. The main ones are:

Bad zygos, prey eyes, negative canthal tilt, obtuse angle at the mandible ramus, and subpar infraorbital bone structure. This is why he gets no bitches.

If someone is getting thinning hair and nothing is working/not worth the side effects, just shave your head.

I guarantee most women will say you look better, because it makes you look younger not having the thinning hair.

Will these issues go away once that stuff is fully out of your system or does it fuck you for life?
 
GL messing with your hormones only to slow down hair loss, when HT and Hair system exist.

DHT, Allopregnolone, neurosteroids etc are all important.



Simple thing is something i put on and don't remember the name,
A hat?
 
I love how guys get so desperate to get their hair back like it's going to prolong their life or something.
 
Perhaps I'm just lucky because I was married and a fair way into middle age before my hair started to thin, but even before that I couldn't imagine spending any money on that kind of shit, especially if there's any risk of side effects. Keep it cut fairly short and just own that it. Or if its really thin, just shave it.

That is very, very, very dependent on context

hair thinning is a decades long process and usually it’s not until the last couple years that it’s worth shaving.
