Hi,
So about a week ago, my doctor prescribed me finasteride, and after a few days, I immediately noticed a change in my body....less libido, problems with erections, brain fog, etc. I stopped taking it when I noticed that, and I still feel the sides, but I hope they will go away within the next few weeks (at least that is what my doctor says). But my doctor also suggested that I give finasteride another try when I feel better. She said it's possible that, after taking finasteride for awhile, my body may adjust to it, and my side effects will go away. Do you think that is a safe option? I really want to take finasteride because of the obvious help it does for maintaining hair, but I am very worried about messing with my hormones. I am 19.
