You should try reducing the dosage to 0.5/0.25 everyday if the side effects persist,and give it another month to see if the side effects go away or not.I tried 1mg everyday for 20 days and my side effect was I couldn't ejaculate at all so I stopped.Now I started it again but at 0.25 everyday.It's been 5 days since I'm taking it,didnt see any sides yet.

Around a norwood 1 and decided to take finasteride 1mg daily to recover/prevent further balding.

Been on it for around 2 months and experienced the following side effects

- Libido (rollercoaster)
- Sleepiness/fatigue
- Skin rash
- Increased appetite
- Lightheadedness/brain fog

Will these side effects subside within time or do I need to reduce dosage/get off it.

Yes, it is likely they will disappear. Once you f*** with your hormones you start the homeostasis which can take up to six months. Just be patience and dont put yourself into a hypochondriac state by reading crappy forums like propeciahelp(literally the shittiest thing you could do now).

A lot of ppl seemed also to have success by topical delivery. If you start minoxidil just drop 3-6 (0.25-.5mg/ml) tabs into it. Other ppl didnt have sides on dutasteride either.

But that being said, you also seem to be a bit oversensitive. Your call to stop/try something else.
