So I posted on here a few days ago about quitting but had a change of heart a couple of times. I got 5 days into 0.625mg of finasteride everyday, said I was going to quit because of aching testicles and dull ache in bladder/groinal/abdominal region.
I decided to continue though as I really don't want to be bald and thought maybe I could ride it out. Plus I had to stop taking Minoxidil because it was making me short of breath. I didn't want my hair to be defenceless so the next day I took another 0.625mg. Pain in my bladder returned and little more intensely over a 3 hour period at work before dying down. I also started getting a slightly aching back but that could be because of the physical nature of my work.
Today would be day 7 but I skipped the dose as I'm getting worried. I don't feel any urge to pee but the aching bladder/stomach and sometimes area around my groin still comes and goes. Also when I pee a little bit of dribble comes out afterwards which I don't normally have? I hear stories of Prostasis and wondered if somehow I've done something to my prostate/bladder?
Anyone got any experience? I'm supposed to go on holiday next week and really don't want to have contracted a UTI or Prostasis somehow? It seems unlikely but possible?
