Question about Finasteride

[SilverShark]

Hi,
I'm 24 y.o guy from Serbia and I recently started using finasteride (devided Proscar) about 3 days ago. Something strange happend that first day of using...
I got a pimple, first one and then they started coming out. Now there are seven. These are painful subcutaneous spots. Is this normal at the beginning of using finasteride? Is this happening to you, Is this a bad sign?

so you just started using finasteride? and got a pimples right away?


honestly doubt finasteride can cause a pimple in it first day use.

It was a second day... Today is my third day of using... It is strange that I've never had that kind of pimples

The same thing happened to me when I started finasteride years ago. They go away once your body gets used to the shift in hormone levels.

Thank you so much Beaner. You encouraged me to continue with finasteride. Just tell me if you managed to stop hair loss and growth new hair?
I recently found a good lotion that has redused the irritation created by minoxidil, dandruff is completely gone and the scalp does not itch me more ...

...

Yes, using both finasteride and minoxidil I have stopped my hair loss completely and it's been slowly reversing over the last 6 years.

Hey, now It's my 33th day on finasteride. At first, it reduce itching but today it's happend again. What do you suggest? Do you think that I need to go up to 2,5mg?
Right now, I'm cutting Proscar into 5 peaces...
