Since early July I was taking a generic called Procepia but I stopped taking it because the place where I got it from had really bad reviews so I went on to do some research and found at Dr in the UK who would prescribe me Finax.

 

Since I started on the Procepia I noticed within a week that I was getting less random erections and without sound disgusting, the semen quality and quantity went down.

 

I don't want to have a knee jerk reaction with this but should I stop it or will my body eventually get used to it? shall I cut the dose down?

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

I am not sure if I am going to keep on taking it, I will stick with Minox for now but I am not sure about the side affects for fin.

 

In a way it's a vicious circle for certain man, your either going to loose your hair or loose your sex drive. :(

As with many medications, side effects will subside the longer you are on it.

Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily

Avodart 0.5 mg. daily

Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily

5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily

Biotin 1000 mcg daily

Multi Vitamin daily

 

Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1? :D

I had to come off it after being on it 3 and a half years. Massive crash in libido and all those symptoms you mention.

 

Not worth the risk. Im off it almost a year now. I can say now although i didnt notice at the time it was dulling my sex drive over the time i was on it.

 

It has now returned to far in excess of what it was whilst i was on it. The changes happen subtley and gradually people forget how they felt before they started on it.

 

Good luck whatever you do.

Since you are off it, what other treatments have you been using?

Minox foam.

 

Is it working for you? I just got some of the foam today instead of the liquid, dried more or less instantly!

Minox works for a lot of people yes . Go with the foam as next to no irritation with that.

 

Ive buzzed my hair down short now while i ponder my next move.

I have been considering dutasteride, but I think it will have the same affect of Fin.
