Started Generic Propecia. Normal Side Effect?

[kebas239]

Hello,

I started on generic Propecia a few weeks ago. I take 0.5 mg by splitting the pill in half. I have not really had much in way of side effects except one: I feel tightness in my testicles. It's not a pain or even an ache - Just a "taut" feeling. It sometimes makes it uncomfortable to sit in certain positions and I have to keep moving around. The feeling is more pronounced on my right side.

Anyone know if this side effect is common or if it is a warning sign? If it's nothing to worry about, should I expect it to go away at some point?


Thanks!

This is nothing to worry about, you're at a tiny sub-therapeutic dose. If you find it persists for a few months, see a doctor, but it is likely nothing.

I started with the same side effect . And it does not end well . Here is my story https://www.hairlosstalk.com/interact/threads/my-story-with-propecia.100035/
About dose do not try to draw conclusions because in inhibition of dht no difference. Very little of this drug is a lot.
