here's a simple method to diffuse your performance issues

DO you get it up when you sit at home and spank to p**rn? Yes

Can't get it up when with a women? YES


p**rn induced ED. (not always the case, but their is possibility)

Allbeit you wont always get a hard on from just making out with a women. Have to be in the right mind set. iv'e had many interactions before where I only had a semi from making out the first time, but when I saw them again it was hard as a rock from just making out. Being comfortable, and turned on is paramount to having a good erection.

It can depend on mood you know. Ive made out with people and not got erections plenty of times, I don't take any meds and I don't have ED. Don't be so quick to blame finasteride.

actually, i put it to the test yesterday, and no 2 minutes into the video and i still didn't get an erection. I feel like i had a similar situation arise when i went to miami in the summer. I got off finasteride 5 days prior to going and had no erections and day 2 in miami i was back in full force. I just hope this **** figures itself out, i wanna get back on finasteride, even if i take it once every 3 days. Im a big hypochondriac but finasteride doesnt really give me reason to show those qualities, i mean i was getting solid erections while dosing .5 a day no problem. Its just ever since nye, given i was completely ****faced and might have done a line or 2 of cocaine, i thought it was the substances but it still persists, stupid me who took 1mg on the 2nd should have waited to make sure everything went back to normal.

but yet i still wake up early morning with an erection. Im just gonna give it a week or 2 for everything to balance out. Honestly the only reason im actually concerned is because i wanna **** this girl, if i didnt have a prospect id happily wait it out.

listen dude, im not "quick" to blame finasteride. i never once complained about sexual sides while i noticed a minor drop in my libido, i used to fap twice a day pre finasteride and moved down to once every day or 2, which i was completely okay with. But now its 6 days i dont get an erection, aside from morning wood, THIS is what bothers me.

Shookwun's right. All the signs point to you being nervous around the girls? As he says unless you actually want to **** them and are not nervous, it won't happen.

I bet if one of those girls was your gf for a while you would have no issues as you would be comfortable. Performance anxiety or worrying about finasteride giving you ED could be a cause.

If you get the morning wood and if you can get an erection without touching your pennis (such as when choosing a p**rn video haha) willl be probably pshycological. It happened to me in summer of 2014 (not even on finasteride or anything). I didnt had sex for about 5 months, since I broke up with my exgf. So I met this new girl and I couldnt get an erection the first time, but for sure was all in my mind, even I knew that then, when I started knowing better her and getting trust bewteen us, the problem dissapeared.

So reading your story it might be your lack of selfconfidence (2 years single, same time since noticed hair loss). I would try meeting that girl and telling her that you are nervous and need more trust with her, at least it worked for me. I don't think the problem is finasteride (and I'm not defending this drug because ive been on it for almost 4 months and only shed...)

Everything seems to be pointing to where I was double dosing about 1.5mg a day (.75 morning and .75evening). I'm gonna give it a week and re asses...

I just want to make it clear that I'm having trouble getting erections alone, whether watching p**rn or fantasizing. The only erection i got in 5 days is morning wood, I can't get it all the way up

well, the streak has been broken my friends, my erection wasnt as big aand bulky as usual but i honestly think i just gave my body too much finasteride in the span of 4 or 5 days. This is basically what i did .5mg/e2d for 6months, sometimes Every Day. Then i had family come stay at my house and didnt have a chance to renew script. so went on a 6 day break. Right after that i started dosing .75mg morning and .75mg night for like 5, might have caused some sort of shock to my body, im gonna stay off finasteride and wait till my erections are normal, but what a sigh of relief knowing i dont have ED.. thanks for the support, im glad it resolved so quick. I just wanna make clear that ive tried to get it up the past 3 days with NO luck, so im guessing finasteride really does take 3 days to start leaving your body and producing normal dht levels.
