Hi all,
Apologies I have been asking a lot of questions about Propecia on here recently!
I'm 23 and recently noticed my hairline receding (I'll say im about NW2). So I started taking Propecia 3 months ago (1mg a day). I havent seen any improvement in my hair yet and I havent experienced any sides until recently. Seems like all these sides have come in this last week! I didn't notice any before then. But now im experiencing a mild aching pain in my testicles, which is very uncomfortable. Occasionally a sharp pain in my stomach/sides. Sex drive has lowered. Depression has become much worse, to the point where i have had to take time off work recently. Feeling very tired and unmotivated. And now i think im experiencing 'brain fog'? Just tried to have a conversation with someone and i couldnt even think what to say.. I just stopped talking and stared off in the distance, it was a weird experience. Feels like im struggling to think what to say and do.
All of this may not be because of the Propecia. But it's the only medication i'm taking and before taking it i was fine and didnt have anything like this. So my questions are should i stop taking it? At what point do these sides get serious? Starting to scare me a little. What would you guys do? I have started to take 1mg every otherday instead to see if that helps
thanks
