Hi @josefhair I made a thread for people like you who are weighing up taking finasteride and aren’t sure what they should do before starting the drug. I too thought only using 0.25 mg would mitigate the risks; this turned out to be very wrong...

@xX_HairlineRecede_Xx I'd strongly advise you not to use finasteride, particularly as you have developed sexual side effects from the use of an SSRI medication. This 2018 article questioned whether the two conditions were the same https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29675596. It is hypothesised...

https://www.hairlosstalk.com/interact/threads/post-finasteride-syndrome-a-broad-overview-of-this-devastating-disease.123852/ Have a read of that before making any decision on whether to take finasteride.

It does entail the same risks. As you may be aware, finasteride has a practically flat dose response curve and powerfully lowers DHT levels even in minuscule amounts. I used 0.25 mg doses four times for a total ingestion of approx 1 mg. I then suffered a horrific crash three days post cessation...
