I've been on and off Propecia for the last 3 years, but have consistently started using it again in January 08. During that time, I started getting some hyper-pigmented dark spots on my arms, back, and legs. I went in to see my dermatologist and performed a biopsy. Apparently, the biopsy indicated some "allergic" elements and she thinks its Propecia. Has anyone heard/experienced anything similiar? The spots just appeared, weren't itchy or red.
Her recommendation is to stop using Propecia for a month and re-do a biopsy to see if the allergic elements are still present. Since I do have an HT scheduled for the end of next week, is it advisable to stop now or continue using Propecia for another 2-3 weeks and then start the one month trial?
Frankly, I would rather have the hair and deal with the dark spots.
