Finasteride

Why even take it though? Forced to take it your whole life with a variety of potential side effects and constant financial burden versus just saving for a transplant for long term growth with no potential consequences to your health.

>brain function

never heard of that side effect

You still need to be on Fin after your transplant to keep it, you brainlet.

To be honest, he's not wrong

No you don't.

not him, but that is the reason why side effect can be brainfug and if I remember correctly also depression it is because of the lack of DHT that negatively impact brainfunction. Also that is why taking testosterone will have positive impact on male behaviour

and it only costs me 10 bucks for 100 5 mg pills which can be cut into 1 mg's
so around 10 bucks for 500 pills

brainfog?

and will that side effect go away if i stop taking it?

It's probably cheaper to be on fin indefinitely than it is to get a FUE hair transplant, you'd also have to stay on fin because you will lose hair again otherwise. Most of the side effects are largely coincidental

"A comprehensive review of a total of 73 papers on medical therapies for BPH was conducted, with a focus on the effects of different pharmacological agents on sexual function.[6] The review revealed that finasteride is infrequently associated with problems of ejaculation (2.1-7.7%), erection (4.9-15.8%), and libido (3.1-5.4%)."

I cba doing all the research for you but if you look into ED and other sexual dysfunctions mentioned above, it occurs at greater rates in the general population than it does with people on fin

>you'd also have to stay on fin because you will lose hair again otherwise

You don't. Fair enough with the other points though.

I've been on it for 3 months, my libido is low and i really have to try to even get hard

Why wouldn't you? it doesn't change your hormonal make up, so if you finished puberty at 16 ,went bald at 26 and got a hair transplant, I would think you'd go bald again by 36

God niggers are so gross

Get the fuck over it man your hair is disappearing grow a pair and deal with it.

>constant financial burden
>16 dollarydoos a month
That's one decent lunch user. You can't be THAT poor.

because the hair is physically different. you'll still lose the hair you were going to lose but the transplanted hair doesn't fall out afterwards. its taken from areas that typically don't thin or fall out like the back of your head.

>black women wouldn't look at black men to spit on them
>the same black women get on their knees to worship whiteboys
I don't get it

On it for 7 years, no side effects.

Read studies before parroting non-science. Why you people give advice is beyond me.

how is your hair? and how was your hair before it started

>fin shills
It’s a DHT inhibitor, there’s literally no way it doesn’t lower libido or reduce erection quality you coping morons.

kek. cope blackboi, you will never be able to satisfy that black queen the way a white MAN can

Am him, and this user is spot on.

Im a literal tranny on hrt with no ed and a libido to masturbate 3x a day. How are all of you guys so pussy? ED is all psychological and even libido to an extent. If it was physical Id have ED and no libido cuz I have little to no T or DHT. All of you guys are just beta fucks with no willpower.

>fin shills
>implying every person has same physiology and response to these pills
sorry you have shit genes

did it go away when you stopped taking it

the brainfug or brainfog im not sure what he means

>makes more testostorone flow around the body thus making it easier to build muscle
is there any source for this claim?

I do find it a bit easier to put on muscle on finasteride for some reason, but it sounds like bullshit

I work in the porn industry and know about 15 transgirls. All of them but 1 suffer from incredible lack of libido due to HRT to the point of damaging relationships.

>i took it for like 2 weeks and my balls started hurting
the testicular pain is a relatively common side effect and only lasts a week or two. it is not dangerous. finasteride is a weird fucking drug

whatever increase in test you get will be offset by an increase in estrogen, so it's nothing special

also DHT is a natural anti-estrogen and because you have less DHT you get more estrogen, right? or maybe I'm wrong

Yup. Less DHT conversion, more estrogen conversion in theory.

Also it can mess with your neurosteroid levels such as allopregnenolone which can cause mood issues.

>work in the porn industry
Doubt
My testosterone is literally 5ng/dl and my libido is fine, my dick works fine, wtf is wrong with me then?

Estrogen doesn't make you gain less muscle, you fucking retard. Your test/est levels need to be balanced, a significant decrese in either leads to ED, depression, low energy and other nasty shit.

Kys freak

The rates for ED on finasteride are very low and even lower for prolonged ED. I know it's a pretty frightening boogeyman but it's what you literally need to be on if you want to save your hair. Fin isn't that bad. Nuking your DHT isn't going to turn you into a woman.

you will still lose hair behind the transplant assuming you did a transplant at NW3 or w/e

I've been on it for 3 years with no side effects

Just starting a dermaroller minoxidil regimen myself, wish me luck.

What if I also take cialis or viagra

lmao

are you retarded? You'll still need to use fin & minox after the transplant or it'll fall out just like your natural hair.

I don't think this is necessarily true. I believe the transplant now involves taking the non-dht sensitive hair follicle and putting it in the thinning area. Anyone feel free to correct me

Fin increases test

The increases in test alone are worth it for anyone. Bodybuilders are literally just the dumbest people on earth.

The transplanted hair will stay, but if you haven't halted the balding process, everything behind it is just going to keep receeding making the transplant pointless.
Also, no specialist with any sense of morality will agree to doing the procedure if they haven't treated the balding first.

The occurence of sexual side effects from Finasteride in clinical trials is like 1-2%. Even if you're young its essentially insurance for your hair.

My test levels have went from smack dab in the middle of the "normal" range to the ceiling of the normal range, borderlining on high essentially. The only major changes I've made since my baseline blood work was the finasteride. The one downside is my beard looks less full because of dhts role in beard and secondary hair growth. I teeter on shaving my head and rocking the beard but worry about fin stopping me from that.

Right. I assumed that person meant that the transplanted hair would fall out.

This is just what I heard sitting in on a consultation with a friend who went to a hair specialist. Not trying to feed anyone disinformation.

Cialis and viagra give you a full erection when you're struggling to get one. They do not increase your libido, that stays the same. Meaning that if Fin messes with your hormones and decreases your libido and dick game, the blue pill isn't really going to fix the problem.

>Black men take white women
>white men take black women
Who is winning here?

I just started to get off fin, been taking it for a year.
As soon as I took it I noticed the ED and libido changes even at 0.25mg, but I kept on it.
Now I'm getting off for fear it might be permanent.
The notion that after fucking with your neurosteroids and nuking your DHT doesn't cause side effects is insane.

I’m 23 with no beard growth, no body hair apart from legs/arms/pubes, and have no history of balding in the family. No ED, very high libido, normal energy levels, no brain fog, and good energy levels. I do suffer from intense mood swings, I can go from being on top of the world to seething in a minute. Sometimes my mood changes from day to day or even from just taking a nap. Am I at risk of low test? I don’t really lose much strength or muscle when cutting and gain a good amount of muscle per year. I also have pretty wide hips, but lately that’s balanced out since my lats and shoulders have grown.

Think about what you're asking. Do you really think a bunch of people on this board can diagnose you with low test by a paragraph? Go get blood work done. Its the only way to know.

Yeah I’m going to the doc soon for other stuff so I’ll ask, just figured maybe someone might have experience with similar symptoms and have received treatment for it. It’s been a big worry for me for a while, so I’m just trying to ease my mind. Got a gf and girls always mire me for my boy face so I guess it’s alright.

Even if anybody here has those symptoms and confirmed has low test it doesn't mean that you have low test just because you also have those symptoms. I get what you're saying, though. Ask for a comphrensive blood panel. Most doctors won't order one unless specifically requested.

The Virgin hair transplant vs The Chad bald embrace

Imagine if straight men took pictures like this.

I'm exactly the same as you without the mood swings and I am on the higher end of normal test.
If mood swings can come from taking a nap maybe you aren't sleeping enough? I used to be extremely irritable when undersleeping, have since learned to control it though.

My gf says I stop breathing in my sleep, that’s what I was going to my doc for. I won’t know until I get checked of course, but at least the whole facial and body hair thing isn’t only low test males.

>That's not the way God works son.
>>as soon as you get ED you'll meet the love of your life
So if I cut off my penis my gym crush will want to cuddle with me at least?

Who are you retards and where do you get this info? Moms.faceberg.net?

stop breathing?

because of finasteride?

No I dont take that shit, I just snore a lot and one time she said I stopped breathing. Probably sleep apnea.
