What about Propecia... are you taking this too?

Ok... I've been on Propecia for a couple of years and I have noticed a significant decrease in sex drive with less frequent and weaker erections. For what its worth, I just turned 39 so that could be a factor as well. There was a period of time that I was taking Effexor (an anti anxiety anti depression med)... While weaning myself off of the Effexor I always noticed the erection issues.... I am no longer depressed but I am tempted to get back on the Effexor so I can gett good wood again... I really don't want to do this so I had my dr. prescribe a testosterone cream. I am noticing a lot of shed in the two weeks that i have been taking the cream.... I was under the thought process that the dht would be blocked by the propecia.... any thoughts on my conundrum would be appreciated.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay on the pics.... my camera broke right after my HT. I just updated my profile here with 6 week and 12 week pics. Unfortunately, I had to use my phone to get the pics. Tomorrow I'll be getting a new camera and will post some 7 month pics that should look much better. HONEST appraisals only. You can't hurt my feelings!

Thanks Dr. Feller! Let me ask you this.... I am pretty pleased with the result thus far... I'm wondering how much more hair should be expected over months 7-12... 10% more.... 20% more....30% more??? I'd appreciate any input!

Did your kinky hair ever relax and straighten out?

I had my HT 7 months ago and I am very pleased with the results so far. I was a diffuse thinner. I have noticed a few kinky (thicker too) , almost pubic like hairs in my hairline. I also see smaller, much finer hairs coming in along the hairline. I new that the kinky thing happens and it is my understanding that this will subside over time. I've also read that the new hairs are fine, baby hairs that thicken as they mature over time. Which is it? Fine? Kinky? Or a combination of both? What is normal at the 7 month phase?

This week I stated cutting the pills in to 1/4ths.... should I just go cold turkey for a while until my libido returns?

They are 5mg pills.

Bill: Problem has been more than the lack of performance the other night.... I just have not been getting errections at all..... not in the morning... not when I see porn... pretty much never. When I have coaxed it up... it has been letrhargic and weak.... you'd think I'd be able to shampoo a buffalo with so little activity over the last year, wouldn't you?

I've tried Viagra (recreationally) in the past and it made my face feel like it was going to explode.

Sorry for the double post.... I also posted this in the drugs section.... I am in CRISIS mode: I have been on finnesteridae for about a year now. I take a half of a pill every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I had a HT 6 months ago and my hair is really looking a lot better these days. Let me be blunt.... I will be 37 next month. For about a year I have not had a girlfriend or been sexually active. I haven't had a whole lot of intrest lately....... various reasons.... went through a divorce 2 years ago..... had a HT.... been a bit cynical towards women in general. Any ways, I had a impromptu date with this really hot chick last night. She really had it going on... There was a a connection.... definately seemed to be a lot of mutual sexual energy going on. I took her home and things continued to heat up. When the moment of truth came.... I LAID A BIG FAT EGG....I pulled a Bob Dole and could not get it up...... I was MORTIFIED..... and this girl has got to think I am either gay or not attracted to her..... and neither could be farther from the truth. I have noticed over the last 6 months or so that I have masterbated less than before. Additionally, when I have, I have had a semi-flacid weak errection. Until last night I just shrugged it off to the "I'm getting close to 40" self talk...... truth is I am in better physiucal shape now than ever before in my life.... low body fat percentge.... exercise 3-4 times per week.... 4 mile jogs... weights...etc...etc... Now, I am scared to death. Do I sacrifice my sexuality for hair? Is this the choice I am facing? Or, Do I sacrifice my hair in order to get my mo-jo back? The choice seems obvious. I'm gonna have to give up the fin. Now I am worried that my hair will look funny in a couple of years if I quit the fin. I Googled the side effects of Propecia and the first websight that pops up (http://www.propeciasideeffects.com/) scare the living &%#! out of me! Could this be permanent impotence? Any advice or suggestion would be very much appreciated.
