increase in estrogen from taking propecia

[badasshair]

is it true that all men experience increases in estrogen from taking propecia? even after a year of taking the drug?

I've been off a month and I am going for blood tests today.

Will let you know my results Monday.

thanx man. lemme know how it goes.

I can't believe the results are back already. These guys are quick (I gave blood earlier today).

TESTOSTERONE 25.6 (nmol/L 9.8 - 27.3)
17-Beta OESTRADIOL 97 (pmol/L 43 - 146)

Both Testosterone and Oestradiol are within the normal range (Testosterone near the higher end, which is good news cause I'm only 27). FYI, I took finasteride for 6 months, and have been off for 1 month now.

DHT results take a bit longer, I'll post those when I get them.

hey...why did u get a blood test...maybe u have stated it before, but i haven't been on for awhile. Were u having side effects of finasteride such as puffy nips, gyno etc?

No, no side-effects. My shedding stopped a month ago and I stopped finasteride at that point. Thought I would have run of tests to reassure myself that everything is where it should be.
