Hi, I'm 37 and I was originally on topical Finasteride mixed with minoxidil for 2 months but switched to Proscar for price and ease of use. I did not have any sides with the topical but I'm not sure if the topical works, some people say it does others say there is no proof it does work. I have been on Proscar now for 4 days, I cut it into 5 pieces for 1 mg each day. I am having definite Ed symptoms. It is taking longer to get a erection and when I do its only half erect. I'm sure this questions has been asked a million times on here but should I continue with the Proscar for a little longer to see if my body adjusts or quit and go back to topical. Like I said Id rather take a pill then put the topical in every night and the Proscar is much cheaper. Any advice would be great.

thanks

side effects initially are expected when messing with hormones. In the end its your choice, do you wanna live a month, possible two with side effects in the hope of them getting better? If not, don't take finasteride

Thank you for the reply. I can keep going too see if they go away. Does that happen to most people the sides go away eventually after they keep on with it?

It was the case for me, and I recently found out it was the case for my barber who now takes it for 4 months, I just hit 7. I don't have any noticeable sides at this point. If you feel as if the sides are unbearable please listen to your body and stop.
