Hi SoN.
I have been on Finasteride for 12 months now and i was as sceptical as you before i started. However, I was rapidly loosing my hair (started when i turned 20) and last year at the age of 22 i decided that i had to do something. I started on 1mg Finpecia together with a daily mineral/DHT blocer pill from Hair Club together with a daily Minoxidil 5% topical solution applied on the entire scalp. I have seen INCREDIBLE results, and I wil say i now have 95% of my hair that i had at the age of 19 so basically a full recovery for my part. To get back to your question:
1. How long have you been on Finasteride?
12 months - 1mg daily.
2. Have you experiencing side effects? If yes, what are the side effects?
I have expirensed a decrease in seemen of abt 30% which is still the case. Not that i bothers my at all and i know for a fact that my seemen quality is still very good. I have NOT had any troubles getting an erection. Minor drop in seemen is all the sides i have seen.
3. Did you quite the drug once the side effects came up?
No (read above).
4. Did the side effects go away after you quite?
It is told that they will, and i will assume that. Not planning on stopping as results are amasing and have no sides really.
5. What is your overall feedback on this drug?
To be honest: Very very good, it has helped me very much, not only getting my hair back but on my general selfesteam of having a full head of hair.
Hope my comments can help you in some way.
I am using Finpecia via International drugmnart, with is a generic of propecia produced by Cipla in india.
