Hey I need some advice
Ive been on propecia for about 2 and half weeks now of every other day .5mg
Im thinkin of stopping due to this irrtated chest feeling i get mostly on my right side..should i wean myself off the stuff?..or does it not matter since i havent been on that long..just ttrying to avoid anrogen upregulation Also I might go back on propecia in say 2 or 3 weeks time but just start taking everyday this time..would that be ok for me to stop now..in hopes the chest pain goes away then began again in say 2 or 3 weeks?..of course im hoping if i start again i may not get this feeling in my chest just trying to be safe..it could go away even if i dont stop of course..

jason, I think that the gyno that can possibly happen from propecia takes much, much longer then 2 weeks to appear. I don't want to be one of those guys that says.. 'its all in your mind'... but...

Im not gonna discredit that..
could be..but my chest definetly feels funny..whether it will adjust i hope so..I could pay to have an estrogen level checked out to be safe but im sure at least my gut instinct is that the test would come back normal..
I have been getting some acne lately too nothing serious but i dont get acne so..but i have a zit on my nose at moment..and i know its the propecia but i dont have an elevated sex drive so its not hyperandrogentic or anything..if it was id have other signs like acne increased sex drive very oily skin..knock on wood..lol
Im just tryin to be careful is all..and thought if im going to quit i should do so now..then start up again in say a month and just take the damn pill everday rather than doing what iam..which i feel is playin even more with my hormones ..by takin a pill skippin a day then takin a pill skippin a day etc..and im cuttin it in half too...5mg..anyway i just need some advice from people who have a great deal of pexerpeince and knowledge with this..
