Hi everyone, this is a question to all of you who are/have been on finasteride. The sexual side effects of finasteride are well known, but I've recently read about the other thing - the brain fog. There are some complains about the mental side effects, worse perception, deteriorated memory etc. Therefore I'd like to ask you - did you experience any of these? I wonder if messing with 5AR influences indeed the cognitive performance. I've seen some opinion that the "depression" side effect, as the Merck company has put it, is a lighter notion for all those mental-related sides (although it smacks a bit of conspiracy theory). Is it really true, or just an exaggerated claim? [And if it's true, is it a frequent symptom, or a seldom one?]
Many thanks for any answers, and good luck to all of you
