I'm sorry to hear that. Your priorities are all wrong. Cancer or mental illness I could understand. Hairloss, no. My mother lost her hair on chemo a few years back. She didn't give a crap about the hair, was glad to be alive and grateful for the treatment. I guess I just don't get depression...

Hi kpat, gosh, you do have a lot going on. It must be exhausting for you worrying about your physicalities and image. I hope you are working through this with support and not trying to figure this out on your own. This is something which goes back to your childhood. I can't imagine what it must...

Hey Dark Link, love the post about the tooth plaque. Funny thing is, I read my own post and yes, I agree it's nuts... but it is honest. What were the odds? Pity it wasn't the lotto. You really don't believe that finasteride can be dangerous? My husband did have to attend a psychiatrist after...

so why did they start listing depression as a side effect in 2010? They didn't do that lightly. It's not safe. At least, not for everyone. For the majority, it does appear to be. For the unlucky ones (and we don't know how many there are) it is very very dangerous. At the end of the day, the...

I know. This is the predicatment I'm in. No one can say for sure that finasteride caused this, even me. It's the timings though, something deffo went pear shaped when he started on this drug. You must understand though, he did go mad while on it. I've known him for years, we were in school...

He was prescribed this by a consultant at a private hospital with an excellent reputation. I agree. He should have been medically supervised while on it. Depression was not listed as a side effect in 2009 when he started taking this. There were a series of flaws that led to disaster. There was...

my husband took it and within 3 weeks I had noticed strange behaviour. He will tell you it took 5 months before he realised something was wrong, I disagree. In hind sight I would not advise anyone to take this "medication". 14 month psychosis was the end diagnosis. That was 3 years back. I...

your doctor is right. this stuff is dangerous. u might be one of the unlucky ones that gets side effects, believe me, you dont want to go there. please, just be aware of what this drug can do. it's dangerous.

its credible... I'm sorry to be adding to this boys, but I can't keep quite any more. Husband went nuts on this stuff...14 month psychosis. Off it 3 years now, but I think paranoid schizoprenia is the end result. (I want my husband back but he's not the same person since finasteride episode)...
