Regular Member Recedinggenes Posted June 22, 2019 Regular Member Share Posted June 22, 2019 Hey guys, I was on finasteride for a few weeks and experienced complete loss of erection and my libido. It scared the hell out of me, then my testicle started to ache and I said no more, so I tapered off of it. That was 4 years ago. After a few weeks my erections and libido came back but the testicle ache and sensitivity never subsided. Went to a urologist and he said everything looks fine just stay away from Finasteride. Here I am today still with extreme sensitivity and was just wondering if anyone on here has the same thing going on and if they had any advice to give me? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member yesplease Posted June 23, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted June 23, 2019 I wish I had something helpful to offer here. I had some similar symptoms, and they’ve lessened over the last 1.5 - 2 years since stopping fin, but haven’t completely subsided. Has your pain diminished at all? Hopefully it will resolve with more time. On a separate note, how has your hair loss been since then? Considering a transplant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairloss has been slowly receding for years but I feel like it’s stopping which is great. Ya I actually have a consultation in a few days with a doc. Nervous as heck lol just wish I never took that finasteride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member E39 Posted August 18, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted August 18, 2019 I’ve had sensitive testes off and on over the years. It started long before I took finasteride. The doc checked me out and said everything is fine. I wouldn’t worry. Just follow his instructions and I’m sure you’ll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
