HI,
I'm on finasteride 1.25mg for almost 2 years for hair loss. Recently from one month I'm experiencing persistent nagging dull pain in my groin area on both side. Can this be because of Propecia ? Anybody experienced groin pain while on propecia ?

Thanks

Yes, this was the sign that lead to year long sexual sides even after quitting. It only gets worse, I ended up in the ER they diagnosed me with finasteride induced epididimytis.

Honestly it's a sign that it's time to get off.

Mine showed up about 6 months in.

I tried antibiotics and everything nothing helped. Even gave me Vicodin. Once I quit the drug I was pain free in 2 weeks and it never came back.

Man I still remember holding an ice pack to my nuts because that dull ache just sucked.

For the record I did recover from the sexual sides, just took nearly a year. Some people just can't tolerate finasteride long term, I'm one of them. Seems to me you are too sadly.
