Propecia - side effects?


Recommended Posts

Hello!

 

I have heard that there is a few side effects from using Propecia. like impotens, lack of desire to have sex and you have to use condom ect? Has anybody any comment on this or?

 

Isn't it quit expensive taking Propecia?? (price??) Is there a cheaper "copy-product"-available?

 

And last...how about Regaine?

 

Thanks

I read somewhere on the net where it said that pregnant women should stay away from propecia... it said that even the touch of it could cause major complications for babies... making me wonder if male users are more prone to having kinds with problems ie: deformations etc...

Also, i'm sure it speeds up other hair growth like facial and body hair. Anyone care to share?

1. Huge man tits

2. Your dick falls off

3. Testicles shrink to pea-size

4. Loss of memory

5. HAIR LOSS (actually kind of true)

6. Horrendous gas

As long as the moon shall rise

As long as the rivers flow

As long as the sun shall shine

And the grass will grow

Let me listen, I will learn to speak

The old language

Yes, I yearn to bathe in blue skies

And fall apart from the world of machines

Regain my feet and my pounding heart

Well I think these last several posts just scared the pants off of the new people. Way to go guys icon_wink.gif!

 

There are risks of side effects with Propecia and sexual side effects is a possible one. Though it is rare, it is something to be wary of. Tender chest is another very rare one. The good news is, if you start to take the medication, and you notice that your sexual drive is going down or having other sexual side effects, all you have to do is stop taking the medication and within a few months, the side effects will go away.

 

I've read a post on here where someone was convinced that it's more psychological than anything else. For me...I was convinced that my sex drive was already so high that if I took it and my sex drive dropped, at least I'd be normal icon_biggrin.gif. However, fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, my sex drive is exactly the same and I've experienced no side effects whatsoever.

If a hair loss reduction pill causes sexual side effects, then a question I have is whether a hair loss prevention pill (propecia) can be taken along with a sexual problem remediation pill (say viagra or similar pills).

 

Personally, I have been taking propecia for about 2 months now and have not really experienced any side effects. I do not have much knowledge of the sexual remediation pills either, as I have fortunately not had the need to use any so far.

 

If I had to choose one over the other, obviously, I would prefer hair loss over sexual side effects. But, ideal situation would be to avoid both, if possible.

Considering that this may be a situation to contend with in future, would anyone have any information on taking hair loss and sexual remediation pills (say propecia and viagra) together or are they known to cause any problems when taken together?

There is another proven way to stop hairloss; Castration.

In my opinion this would be an extreme measure and I'm not recommending it unless you thoroughly think about the pros and cons.
