Hey guys,
Typical hair loss story here. I have been on finasteride for 4 years. It worked very very well and significantly increased the amount of hair I have.
HOWEVER, last year I started a medication called pregabalin and started developing pseudogynecomastia. I stopped pregabalin, gyno still there. Doctor said to stop finasteride.
One week off finasteride, and yesterday I had a rock hard erection, which I have not had for a while. This was while watching p**rn, for scientific purposes.
The last three times I tried to have sex this year, I either couldn't get it up, or lost the erection midway.
Yesterday I maintained a rock hard erection all the way through orgasm.
So here is the question: If I reduce finasteride from 1mg everyday to 0.2mg, can I retain some benefit without getting bad side effects? Anyone tried this?
Another side effect I've been dealing with for the past several months is extreme fatigue, soreness for several days after gym, lethargy, depression, anxiety, loss of muscle tone. I don't want to be too quick to blame finasteride, but yeah.
