Finasteride Questions//Results

sirfartsalot · Apr 21, 2015

Hey guys,

So I've been taking finasteride for close to 4 months now. I started with taking 0.5 mg every other day for the first month, then decided to bring it down to 0.5 mg every 3rd day for the 2nd/3rd month. For the 4th month i brought it back up to 0.5 mg EOD. My sides have been weak//diffuculty achieving erections and no nocturnal erections.

During the 2 months that i brought the dose down, my erections had started to become stronger and had mornng wood. I was wondering does my body need time to adjust to the 0.5 EOD? I'm 4 months in now and don't know if I should drop it or struggle through the sides. Will they go away with more time?? Also i realize these doses are very low so should i change them?

Thanks

how's your progress? personally i think you should just take the 1 or 1.25mg a day.

I had been shedding a good deal, but it seems to have stabalized. Have lots of hairs growing around the hairline, but overall my hair feels thinner all over. Im just about at the 4 month mark now and am still experiencing sides. I dont know if i should drop it or give it a few more weeks because it seems like the sides have been getting a little less serious. Also changed my dosage 3 or 4 weeks ago so wondering if thats part of the reason

*facepalm* It's been 4 months you know nothing yet. Give it a full year of 1mg a day and then reevaluate. Get off the forums and quit reading about sides you are psyching yourself out. Put that energy towards going to the gym which will naturally boost your testosterone a little and you will feel and look better than ever.
