Despite being top shape, I used to get sick a few times a year. Sick enough to make me miss school/work for a day or two.

Post Finasteride, despite always feeling run down and fatigued, I cannot remember a single time in 7 years that I have been sick enough to have to miss school/work.

Anyone else experience the same??

This has puzzled me too. I used to have moderate colds at least a few times a year. Now I'm never really "normal" ill. I think it's a clue that the immune system is involved in creating the PFS state.

Me too... Even my sister pointed that out another day. In six years, not even a flu. I used to have rhinites before, and don't have it anymore. I read somewhere that when the total testosterone goes down, this affects the immune system, so it becomes more active. Maybe that could explain it?

I feel like I rarely ever get sick anymore.

I've had food poisoning a few times, but not just like a regular cold or fever.

The first year after I quit I got sick a few times from cold/flu symptoms. But in the last two years, almost nothing at all
