Thanks, I'll try this!

I was taking 1 mg a day. I don't use any other meds for my hair but i may start on minox foam. I'm just scared of the crazy shed.

Be very careful taking propecia. I'm 23 and have been off the stuff for a week after a long 16 months. Still experiencing sides. I don't want to scare you as it works differently for everyone, but I didn't do too well on the stuff and now I'm facing the consequences.

Hey guys, My very first post on this forum, I've been reading/browsing through these forums for about a solid year or so now. I'm a 23 year old male, started noticing my hair loss at 19. I began taking propecia 16 months ago, sometimes would miss a day or two but 99% of the time I'd be on the ball. I seemed to be emotionally fine when I first started using the drug. These past few months(4 or so) I've noticed that I haven't been myself, I've been experiencing the following; - extreme depression - suicial thoughts - lost spontaneous erections(morning boners, random car boners) To add to the erection part, I can only achieve an 100% erection when I haven't seen the misses for 4+ days all my other erections seem to be very weak and I tend to go down a lot during sex. So, it's quite obvious that this has impacted my life in a negative way. I didn't think the medication was working on my hair very well until now. I've stopped using the drug and I'm sitting on day 6. I've noticed a lot of shedding today, combed my hair and counted 20 hairs in the sink(usually only 2-3 fall out which made me post on this forum). I'm also still experiencing the sides I've mentioned above. I'm asumming some of you have experienced these sides and I was curious to know how you got by this shitty situation? Does this go away? Losing my hair faster also amplifies my depression even though I was well informed that it would after stopping the medication. It makes me want to take it again but I don't want to keep feeling like this. Cheers guys
