Bill - Seemiller Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 djdennis, I can't say that I ever heard of this. But I do agree with notgoing2gobald that you should contact your physician. Keep us posted. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member notgoing2gobald Posted January 6, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted January 6, 2008 how often are you taking it (i.e. are you doing the every other day thing or what)? Also, the way you made it sound in the header of this post was as if blood is just pouring out of your nose; but you mentioned that you have been more "stuffy" lately and have been blowing your nose a lot. I don't think that is very strange. But, if your just bleeding like a stuck pig then that is a different story. If it is just a little bit of blood that comes out in your snot rag, then if it were me I would just assume it was irritated and possibly dry from blowing it so much...

Guest josh - b Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 didennis, A common thread on all forums is people attributing all sorts of new ailments to the taking of finisteride. It sounds to me that you're getting slight nose bleeds which really isn't anything to worry about but i would go see a doctor and have it checked out. I really doubt that its anything to do with finasteride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 when did you start taking the medication? I don't know anything about Proscar BUT, I have this same problem in the winter months. For me, it is due to the heater being on and just causing my nose to stuff up and get dry. Well, I hope you get an answer. Sandra Originally posted by djdennis:Has this happenned to anyone else?

Senior Member MrJobi Posted January 16, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted January 16, 2008 No doubt dry air will give you nose bleeds. So will a shortage of iron in your body..
