Long time reader of HairLossTalk.com, first time poster; finasteride + nizoral has really helped to maintain, (I thank this sight for the hair I still have.... paying 70 a month sucks) My question is wieght gain (6-4 220) Its has been a lot harder to keep of the lbs since I have been on 2 of the big 3, Does anyone think wieght loss pills will counter act the finasteride? I workout about 4 times a week and still look good but would like to have brad pitt from fight club abs (dont we all) and for all newbies get on finasteride as soon a you get that first shed!! I remember, I was in the libary at my college (4 years ago) messing with my mop of curly thick brown hair when I saw like 50 hairs fall on top of my poly sci book... that sucked!! But back to my question what supplements do all you guys take to stay in shape? Also no side affects when i am sober... but I think when I drink alot I meet a girl for a one night stand my whisky dick comes alot since I have been on finasteride. Good luck to all!!! I also think the shaved look is a good look and will go that way when it comes to that... hair transplant is only an option if you are rich, Bald guys do get hot chicks, you just have to be tall and in good shap Im luck yand have that option to take when it comes to that and I know it soon will....

Hey jay,
Brad Pitt´s body in Fight Club was the reason why I started working out. One day I wanna look like that, no matter how much it takes. Well, I can´t say whether finasteride actually caused weight gain for me. When I started I was anorexic and it was normal for me to gain and lose weight all the time. But I have switched to Dutasteride now and I am quite ok with my abs for now (see Avatar, still hoping for improvement though). As supplements I take L-Arginine and Green Tea, now I also wanna start Acetyl-L-Carnitine as well.

i also noticed some weight gain on finasteride (1/4 proscar a day). Im not too sure whether its from the drugs or just plain pigging out and storing up the fat for the winter period. Either way i dont like so i have cut down my dose to 1/5.
on a side note i have also noticed an increase in semen during ejaculation, does this mean finasteride is doing the opposite?
Maybe i should try dutasteride? Is it different from finasteride and how does it work?

dude you are clearly gay...you obviously like guys more than girls.
Maybe because you never had one.
I have noticed more flab on my torso since I've been on finasteride, about 7 months now. Not that I'm fat, just more soft in general. I don't like it obviously. I guess I just have to be more careful about my calorie intake than before. Drinking a few beers every night obviously doesn't help.

Drinking a few beers every night will make you fat even if you do aerobic exercise every day.
I think weight gain when starting Propecia could be connected to the raised T-level. When I was training alot I hear from the muscle dudes I know that high T levels was good for fat burning, so I wonder what happends if your T-level is constant 8% higher than normal. But I have no good answer, maybe Bryan would now if that a good thing or bad thing when it comes to weight loss.
But mostly weight gain is common with 25-30 year old men. Its just something that happends with your body when you get older. Look at all those superhot chicks you remember from high school, how many of them have gained quite a few pounds because they was just having fun and don't exercise. The answer is many.
Just start exercising or train harder than before. Or you could quit Propecia and lose your hair and maybe be a little thinner. Its up to you
