Few people get ED when using Proscar, and few get low libido. But in order to find out if the tablets are the cause, can one just stop taking the tablets and instead use finasteride gel for a while?

I came across a study where gel was as effective:

What are the chances that the gel could give the same side effects as the oral finasteride?

You got ED or Low libido?

If Low Libido, it should be normal after some time if not you can boost it with suplements.
If ED, then i bet DHT is decreased too much with pair of bad dht:estro ratio. The only way is throwing finasteride, or switch to half dose.

sides are real, we all know that. the fact that you guys think you're gonna die when you feel a side effect from finasteride is what gets people worked up over here.

is this a topical gel? ive used topical formulations with fina inside and it may just be the way mine was compounded but i found it did more harm than good to myhair.
