Switched from Propecia to Finasteride 2 months ago. Admittedly, I lost alot of my libido/sex drive while on Propecia for 8 months. Did not see any results with Propecia. Switched over to Finasteride (much cheaper) , been on it for 2 months...still the same no results...but it made my sex drive jump 3X what it ever was in my life. I am very confused.
I am pretty concerned about this. Any help would be appreciated.

It doesn't matter.
Perhaps there was a break in the time inbetween switching from brand name propecia to generic finasteride, and this caused your brain to adjust the DHT-testosterone levels in your blood serum.

No, there was no break. That's what I dont understand. Is there something else Propecia has in it that Finasteride does not ?

Hey, 31PRASAD... shut up. Seriously. Thanks.
Anyways, I'll be switching from Propecia to Proscar (as soon as I start taking Propecia again in a week)... it'd be nice if Proscar actually didn't give sides.

propecia gave me side effects too so now I use finasteride instead of propecia, it's the generic version of it. dealgeneric.com is where I get it.
Now i am satisfied and regained my confidence. Hope it helps you too

Propecia is finasteride at 1MG. Proscar is finasteride at 5MG. If you are feeling different from a generic or a bought-over-the-internet version of finasteride (i.e. Finpecia), then it is possibly nothing more than a sugar pill. See the link below. Dr. Rassman recently had a post about how finasteride is one of the most faked drugs.
