Propecia dosage question...

[try2beme22]

currently i'm taking 1 mg of propecia and am experience slight sexual side effects... i was wondering if i dropped the dosage down to .5 mg will the medicine still work and ease the side effects.. i've been on propecia currently for about 10 months to a year

I've read that it still works in smaller doses so it is certainly worth trying. Have you had much success with it?

In theory, yes, this would be a wise first move for someone experiencing side effects
