I’ve been on finasteride since 2011 following fair hair loss in my early 20s. It went great. I’ve lost minimal hair over the course of 9 years. Had a period where I grew some back.
I have been lucky as I have never experienced any apparent sides. Libido and everything all good. No gyno etc.
That being said, I experienced depression in 2014 but worked through it that year. Since then I’ve had on and off anxiety. I was always a little bit anxious but it has been a bit more apparent in recent years. I still live a functional life and have many happy days though. But I’m left wondering am I contributing to my anxiety?
Now I’m left with a dilemma. Do I drop finasteride in hope that it can improve my anxiety. If It doesn’t work then I’m left an anxious mess with no hair but if I don’t do it I’ll never know.
Is there a way I can work out if it’s effecting me?
Thanks.
Mark
