>>74201019
realisticly these people don't even take fin, they are so scared of taking it they keep making these types of thread to get a reaction

no, even in the very odd chance that your dick go limp you may want to try to intervene either in your lifestyle to improve your libido or hormonally
>>
>>74201019
Side effects are reversible in every single case. Finasteride has a half life of 6 hours and your hormone levels will go back to previous levels within 3 months of stopping the drug.
What baldcels don't tell you is that like 30% of young men naturally develop some form of ED and then go on to blame it on finasteride/accutane/SSRI...
>>
>>74201051
>in every single case
No. There’s some case were it’s irreversible, but you’ll probably don’t account for them since it doesn’t suit your narrative.

OP, talk with a doctor, ideally a specialist (dermatologist or endocrinologist). Maybe Cialis will get the job done, maybe you’ll need another treatment.
>>
>>74201019
There’s more threads about fin being a magic treatment with absolutely 0 side effects that every man should take just in case like really, 0% something bad happen when you take a hormone blocking pill everyday for years.
It’s like minox, I’ve done 1 year of minox, at first it was alright but at the end I kept having acne on my forehead, the dermatologist told me to start yet another treatment for acne caused by hairloss treatment. Fuck that shit.

>started dut last november

>could only maintain an 80% semi at best

Feels bad bros. I'm not quitting but fuck me. Haven't tried dick pills so fingers crossed.
For the record I do have performance anxiety with new girls but I know this bitch's vajajay like the palm of my hand and she's an absolute semen demon. If she can't get a full chub out of (you) there's something wrong with the piping. Simple as.

Also 2 guys at my gym used to be on fin but experienced similar issues and now run minox exclusively. One got a hair transplant recently but refuses to get back on fin. He made a point about having absolutely zero libido so maybe he didn't experience ED per se, I didn't push it further.

IMO the libido/ED rates are seriously downplayed. 1-2% must be the number of guys who have completely shot off dicks. My guess is that couch potatos and boomers forgot what erections are supposed to be like and are happy with their half-chubs.

wish I didn't have to take fin but I have no choice. luckily no sides that I've noticed, still get it up with the gf, but I'm young and know it'll fuck me up long term. but once during a balding-related breakdown I shaved my head and kept that for a year, the attention I got from women went to 0, I had women on nights out actively laugh at me when taking my hat off before (cold where I live), balding is a curse and wouldn't wish it on my worse enemy, any man that's bald before marriage is probably going to stay single forever, it makes me feel like I've got a strict clock on my life and time is running out, I fucking hate it

Time to hear from people who took a drug and didn't personally perceive any negative effects so they assume nothing bad is happening and nothing noticeably bad could possibly happen to anybody else. Just follow the science from these FDA trials in 1997 that were funded by the manufacturer its perfectly safe and effective, only 1% of people get side effects! just a coincidence that actual trannies love this drug. absolute morons

Extremely vocal minority, as is the case with anything. There's hundreds of millions of men on fin worldwide just being quiet about it who are living normally. I've been on it for about 5 years now and I still get a blowie every morning from the gf then plap her cheeks 5-6 days/week. Our primary sex hormone is test, and that actually goes up by a few % on fin since it's not being wasted aromatizing into DHT, so getting ED from fin doesn't even make any sense. The "don't take these tranny pills it will give your ED!!" shill voices are just too loud and are noceboing a fuck ton of young guys

>1% of cases, 99% of which are temporary
Big pharma runs self reported studies like this that are designed to underreport side effects. I noticed this when I was researching adderall. A side effect for adderall is loss of appetite, ask anyone who takes adderall, this is something that everyone who takes adderall experiences, the studies that big pharma runs on adderall say stuff like "14% experience loss of appetite" no, that's not how it works, everyone experiences that side effect, people underreport it because they like the drug and don't want to get it taken away from reporting bad interactions. If a study says a side effect is present in 5% or 2% or whatever, then it's probably just an actual effect of the drug that everyone experiences

Just because it does one thing doesn't mean it can't also do another, also DHT is a complex molecule with a wide range of effects similar and relating to testosterone

retard any /fraud/ poster will tell you that you can't have a T increase without affecting any other hormones. If you're on fin and reduce DHT by 70% your T will spike by 15% on average and so will your estradiol which is the cause of the ((rare)) gyno and ED sides. Ofc the 15% is just an average for some people it'll be less, some healthy men post bloodwork with +30% T and 2x increase in estradiol and prolactin after they started fin. Some fin users even take aromatase inhibitors to counteract that/

If your est or prolactin are already high fin can push you far beyond the reference ranges and cause all kinds of shit.

Stopping fin should fix any hormonal issues in 30-60 days but don't be delusional you're severely impacting your hormones and you have to be careful.

Fin works for many people but don't be a retarded.

It's not surging more test to compensate, you simply just aren't wasting your free T molecules floating around that bind to the alpha-5 reductase enzyme
>>74206699
I never argued otherwise against anything you posted. I said testosterone is the primary male sex hormone, which is a fact, not that it's the ONLY hormone that plays a role in our bodies. An increase in testosterone is typically synonymous with an increase in sex drive, and if someone is aromatizing too much T into estradiol, they probably have some other health issue, as you yourself admitted to people having elevated levels of such prior to fin.
>Prolactin
Don't call someone retarded and try to make a retarded point that fin fucks with your prolactin, when 99% of men are busting daily nuts and surging prolactin high and low.

I’m not lying. I’m almost deaf from genetics, hearing aids on both sides since I’m 5. Balding since 25. I do have pretty nice facial and physicals features tho, but more importantly I’m not a blackpilled incel. Of course on tinder I won’t get many matches if any at all, but once you’re in a friends group and go outside, do activities, go to parties, you met a lot of people and eventually you get to know a girl who match with you, despise your flaws.

A hairdresser told me when I was 28 that I wouldn't go bald in the back, without a prompt or anything, she just felt my hair and looked at it and said it. But I've always known I would get receding temples, slowly but surely, but I've just kept it long up top and short in the back and on the sides and thought that I could just shave it closer to the temples and keep it long on the top for at least 10 more years.

Now I'm 34 and my dad told me two weeks ago that it's starting to look a bit thin in the back, and sure as fuck, I basically have a bald spot there, so the plan for my hair and to an extension my life went all blown to fucking hell.

not if you're also suppressing DHT by 70% - the most important hormone for sexual desire, and increasing estradiol by as much as your test

lmao the effect of ejaculation on prolactin lasts up to like 4 hours, whereas with fin you can reach permanently elevated levels
also ejaculation during sex has a larger impact on prolactin than jerking off, if you wanna become a monk be my guest

Again finasteride isn't the devil, but you have to test your hormonal levels before hopping on and every few months / years after or you're playing a dangerous game.

funny you even mention procreation when finasteride users have to stop using fin for at least a month before trying to conceive and women have to be careful not to touch topical fin liquids / fin tablets or the risk abnormalities in the male fetus. that's also on the finasteride label that you didn't read

This is in addition to finasteride ruining your sperm count & motility and often making you infertile while you're on it
>4,400 men on finasteride... The mean duration of treatment with finasteride was 57.4 months, and mean dose was 1.04 mg/day. There was an average 11.6-fold increase in sperm counts after finasteride discontinuation.

This is super interesting. I’ve felt like my cum has changed recently and I’ve been using fin for a while.

It is much stickier in contact with water than it was before. When I cum in the shower it is super annoying to get rid of it. It sticks everywhere now.

I never considered that it could be the fin because I use topical

what concentration fin topical do you use? Topicals still go systemic but if you use low concentration you can inhibit serum hormones less than scalp DHT

can you use minoxidil to grow back certain spots then use fin to stop balding AND keep the gains from minox?

if you stop minox you lose all the scalp hairs that you gained from it, those hairs depend on minox.

Been on fin for a year. No side effects and my hair has grown back. Stay losing, baldcels.
>>
>>74211620
>No side effects
right, now check your hormone levels & sperm count
>>
>>74211546
The proper way to do it is to take fin only for like a year. If you're not satisfied with the hair regrowth, then start taking minoxidil too.
A lot of guys make the mistake of starting both of them at the same time. Some guys grow all of their lost hair back on fin alone, but they'll never know that if they've been taking min since the beginning too.
Its better to take 1 medication per day (just fin) than 2 (fin+min) if you don't have to.

>not if you're also suppressing DHT by 70% - the most important hormone for sexual desire
aromatase inhibitors suppress libido despite increasing androgens. the most important hormone for sexual desire is estradiol. you ask then "why men have higher libido". because in the brain areas responsible for libido aromatase is expressed very strongly, and men have a shitton of the precursor to estradiol, meanwhile women are cucked by cycling hormones + progesterone which suppresses libido even in male monkeys dosed simultaneously with testosterone.
if finasteride and dutasteride lower libido, it's because of allopregnanolone/other progesterone-derived neurosteroids which also require 5α-reductase

You do get some regrowth. If you're in the early stages of balding, fin may be the only thing you need.

>However, estradiol, the predominant form of estrogen, also plays a critical role in male sexual function. Estradiol in men is essential for modulating libido, erectile function, and spermatogenesis. Estrogen receptors, as well as aromatase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen, are abundant in brain, penis, and testis, organs important for sexual function. In the brain, estradiol synthesis is increased in areas related to sexual arousal.
>In men with diminished testosterone, the administration of exogenous estradiol has been shown to increase libido.6 This finding is supported by rodent studies demonstrating that castrated animals given exogenous estrogen show an increase in sexual activity in a dose- and temporal-dependent manner.7
>In 2013, Finkelstein et al. looked at the effects of testosterone and estrogen on male sexual function. They found that the administration of testosterone with and without aromatase inhibitors markedly impaired sexual function when aromatization was inhibited.18
>Most compelling is the fact that in men with serum testosterone <300 ng dl-1, sexual drive was seen to be markedly higher when estradiol levels were >5 ng dl-1.

it is in the fucking name... estrus + gen.

>The Mondaini group28 have proved that counseling about sexual side effects generated a higher rate of sexual adverse effects due to nocebo phenomenon. One group was informed about the possible adverse effects of finasteride whereas the other arm was uninformed. The group that was informed had a 3-fold higher incidence of sexual side effects as compared to the uninformed arm.
>Dutasteride and finasteride are relatively well-tolerated drugs. On comparing parameters of sexual dysfunction, primarily altered libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders, there was no statistical difference between finasteride and dutasteride.19 In fact, Debruyne et al discovered that dutasteride is better tolerated, with fewer adverse events, in a study period of 4years.24 Moreover, adverse effects of 5-ARIs gradually disappear with continued treatment, over time.26, 27 A Phase III dutasteride trial demonstrated that dutasteride was well-tolerated, with a general trend toward a reduction in incidence of the most common sexual adverse reactions over a 4-year study period. Patients initiated on dutasteride therapy after 2years have a similar pattern of AEs to those starting therapy at baseline, with diminishing incidences over the 24 to 48-month period. (6.0% in year 1, 1.7% in year 2, 1.4% in year 3, and 0.4% in year 4).24

btw there's an interesting study on prostate cancer patients given an androgen receptor antagonist bicalutamide which basically gives you hormonal profile of a woman, not even an eunuch. the groups were heteros and fags, and various measures of sexual functioning were taken. somehow it was the faggots who felt worse while heteros were fine. fucking imagine it. boomers with wives, forcibly trooning out due to cancer and they're fine with it, "intercourse satisfaction" even increased.

>>74213644
NTA it doesn't block 100% of DHT spasticated faggot.
>>
>>74213685
Another dipshit that misses the point hard. Even if it blocks 70% like fin does, or 50% or even 20%, the "most important sexual hormone" should hypothetically absolutely murder your dick if it get suppressed, but DHT inhibitors cause ED problems in barely marginal levels over control groups. DHT is vital in 2 stages of life 1) being a fetus in your mom and 2) during puberty. Afterwards, it's a junk molecule floating around that sends your hairline into the shadow realm, grows hair on your shoulders, and causes cardiac cellular damage (DHT could explain why men live on average shorter than women). Cope and seethe.

Too late for microdosing. I take dut 3 times per week and my hairline is barely hanging on as it is. If I moved to fin I'd have to take it daily to get a similar effect, and even then you can lose ground because you're fucking with hormones and that shit's complex.

You little niggers are doing it wrong. Grind up your fin with a mortar and pestle and dissolve it in ethanol/minoxidil solution that you can get online, then apply it topically for minimal side effects. I've been doing this for a year now, got small but noticeable regrowth, and I haven't had any noticeable side effects. I'm still just as much of a gooner as ever.
>>
>>74214628
Daily 0.25mg fin would be WAY less harsh for you hormonally than split up dut. Idk how you niggers are hopping right on dut, when it's usually considered a second line of defense when fin hasn't worked.
