PROPECIAHELP: Persistent Finasteride Propecia Proscar side effects info & discussion forum

Is this fucking possible?

I haven't taken any substantive action yet but i still feel "somethings going on" down there.

WTF?

My prostrate can be sore at times, my balls have ached the past few days (and rarely had in the last 7 months!!) and even my penis has had pains in it. Secondly, i think ive shrunk somewhat the past month. I aso reckon my semen is getting worse - more watery and pathetic. Im just after mastubating to a semi-hard penis!!

Mother of God is this possible? Its ironic that just in the past month when ive started taking this thing seriously (getting bloods done, went to endochronologist etc) its got worse.


Do i need to wait and see "how bad things get" or should i just go balls to the wall with things now?


FML ~ I'm going to overcome this bullshit and i cannot wait in the recovery section. But for now (And forever) - f**K you finasteride.

I am eight months off and have periods of getting worse. I started taking thyroid/adrenal support supplements and eating a 100 percent clean diet about two months ago after I had a second crash. I had felt improvement, but hit another extremely rough patch a week ago. I had problems sleeping again, night sweats, testicular shrinkage even more, weak feelings. This was triggered by playing basketball once for an hour straight, some added stress at work, and drinking a few glasses of wine twice with dinner. I have had a decent day and a half here so I hope I'm improving again, but I have gained more fat in the breasts and stomach within about 4 days. Also, it seems like genital numbness increases in waves as time goes on. Long story short, in my case this has gotten worse as time progresses. I hope this weight I've gained isn't a bad sign of worse things to come in the way of an uptick in estrogen etc that will hold. It doesn't make sense that it would shift suddenely. Maybe my body is trying to produce more T and therefore the E went up or maybe my body is just shifting in favor of E like many have reported. Who knows.

It seems like the highs get higher and the lows get lower if that makes sense. I feel the best I've felt at times and the worst I've felt.

I'm in the same boat. I have had some of my best days in the 8 months since crashing but generally my condition has worsened. At times I now have 0 libido, Impotence (not ED), and shrinkage has also occurred in around the last 4 months. I ask the same question. How the fuck is this possible? It's like living in a nightmare, I still can't accept that it's happening to me.

I am approaching 7 months off fin now and i have been getting more and more numb each month. THis very week i have lost the last bit of sensativty. I can actually push something inside it and would not feel it.

Has anyone recoved from loss of sensation?

Many people have (From what i read)

Have you been taking anything to rectify the situation?

Im going to stop this raising estrogen in its tracks, mark my words.

I like your attitude and I am with you on that one.

So far I have had an examination to check my prostate which came back normal. I have also tried the broccoli treatment which did nothing for me.

I have tried various supplements. Tribuls pro works well for night time erections and I have the most amazing dreams. Other than that I take 100mg of zinc a day for 2 weeks then drop to 50mg and on times some vitamin D.

I am not sure where to go from here. I kind of don’t want the libido back if I am unable to do anything because of the numbness. I just hope its reversible.

Its the penis pain for me / shrinkage which i fear the most.

As for numbness, i duno, people say it comes back but i guess it would take time.

I imagine if you can get rock hard and you can regain good dopamine levels you should be close to where you were before. If your prolactin is high you should try cabergoline to reduce it which should help your dopamine levels...
