I've been taking it about 6 years now. I quit it for 5-6 months last year and it got SO THIN that I'm back on it again. I had no idea it was doing so much.

My only "post fin syndrome" was losing a shitload of thickness.

>>511322313 (OP)
I've been taking fin for about a year, no side effects.

The "side effects" most men describe are also just consistent wirh getting old and wowzers that is usually when men start going bald.

>Why am I not a 24/7 fuck machine anymore?
Because you're fat and old and tired and your girlfriend isn't a 19 year old college girl with the world's tightest wettest pussy. She's also gotten old and now she's a fat and lazy like you.

Might be the fish oil, coq10, magnesium, etc, that I take. I noticed the side of my hair is thinning and it's probably from me taking a bunch of creatine last year.

You're probably fine.

Some experts say it increases DHT, some like that woman that goes on Rogan (Ronda Patrick) says it does nothing to your hair. So who knows.

I’ve been on it for 3-4 years. Crown of my head used to be thinning quite a bit. It’s all filled in now. Works good. Does nothing for hairline, but I caught it in time. I only take 0.5mg 2x a week though. 1 gram a day is overkill. It’s just recommended because that’s the dose they used in clinical trials decades ago. So legally, that’s the only dose they can suggest. No brain fog and I can get it up and fuck just fine.

You don't have to worry about taking fin. Don't listen to the trolls who say "tranny this" and "tranny that". If you want to keep your hair, get on it as soon as possible.

> The extent to which selection has shaped present-day human populations has attracted intense scrutiny, and examples of local adaptations abound. However, the evolutionary trajectory of alleles that, today, are deleterious has received much less attention. To address this question, the genomes of 2,062 individuals, including 1,179 ancient humans, were reanalyzed to assess how frequencies of risk alleles and their homozygosity changed through space and time in Europe over the past 45,000years. Although the overall deleterious homozygosity has consistently decreased, risk alleles have steadily increased in frequency over that period of time. Those that increased most are associated with diseases such as asthma, Crohn disease, diabetes, and obesity, which are highly prevalent in present-day populations. These findings may not run against the existence of local adaptations but highlight the limitations imposed by drift and population dynamics on the strength of selection in purging deleterious mutations from human populations.

This should only happen to you if you live a slow life. If you work a busy engaging job there's little space to overthink like that. I worked a tedious job in a lab for a year and was horribly self conscious. When I started bartending it all eased back. Otherwise I guess you're fucked.

I look like the OP's picture when I was 18. It's not that big a deal, if a woman wants you for your hair and she's not a good woman. It's like a filter a good filter that helps you.

If losing your hair or is your worst problem you have consider yourself lucky. Ask yourself who you're trying to impress and if it's worth it. Most people aren't worth it. Only fags care about this shit. A real man don't give a shit.

>>511328804
True but it's also absolutely true that a good fraction of women are automatically less interested in you as a sexual partner which isn't fun. But I'd rather look like an orc than take finasteride at this point. Also maybe back in my teens or early 20s I felt bad about not looking a certain way. But I'm just too comfortable in my own skin to even care about changing something as natural as losing follicles on my head. I mean, man the fuck up already.

>Oh no I have patchy facial hair and I'm bald. Oh nooo. No man has ever dealt with this or looked like this ever. Especially in my ancestry. Noo. Not possible. My life is over now. The guys on /pol/ will say I've died twinkie death and that I'll never ever ever be attractive to a woman ever again nooo. Is it still too late to consume product and buy finasteride and buy minoxidil and buy muh therapy from betterhelp and muh indian folk medicine paste and buy a plane ticket to some Muslim shithole to get my hair follicles frankensteined back onto the front of my scalp? Please I'm dying ahhh noooo I can't cope guys please ahhh

I legit only took Finasteride for a single month back in 2017 because my hairline was starting to recede. I looked up the side effects before taking it and saw that erectile dysfunction was a rare (about 5%) side effect. But those same warnings told me not to worry if it happens because it will just clear up on its own in about 30 days tops once you stop taking it. Seemed safe enough to me, so I asked my (Jewish) dermatologist what he thought. He said it was fine with him and that even Trump was on it. So I started taking 2.5mg every morning. I was thrilled to see that not only was I not experiencing erectile dysfunction and a lower sex drive, but the exact opposite was happening because I was horny as hell and my erections were so hard they actually burned a little bit and my dick was throbbing with pleasure and horniness even when I wasn't touching it. And so I thought I was in the clear. But then I woke up one morning about 30 days in and my dick AND balls were shriveled up and tucked in super closely to my body. They were also literally cold to the touch. It felt like my dick and balls were traumatized, like a professional NFL kicker just kicked me in the nuts as hard as he could and then dumped me into an ice bath. I couldn't get an erection if you put a gun to my head. And so I immediately stopped the finasteride and waited for my dick and balls to return to normal like the expert medical advice online assured me would happen. Instead, this lasted for over a year!!! I went to several different urologists and other medical specialists and did lots of my own research online as I desperately tried to find answers and solutions, but to no avail.

>>511329977
>But I'd rather look like an orc than take finasteride at this point.
Why

>>511330735
I tried Cialis, Viagra, several different types of dick pills, countless supplements like citrulline, several different penis pumps, got my pelvic floor examined, did pelvic exercises, several different types of diets, did lots of exercise, moderate amounts of exercise, no exercise, didn't look at porn or fap, et cetera. You name it I tried it. I even resorted to bi-mix injections - which is considered a last resort nuclear option for erectile dysfunction because it's a serum which forcibly induces erections. That was the only thing that worked. But it only lasted about 6 months because I ended up doing even more PERMANENT damage to my dick by riddling my dick with leaky veins and scar tissue. My dick has lost a lot of its elasticity and blood flow now from all of the syringe-induced leaky veins and scar tissue and shrunk about an inch and a half in length and girth... So now my only option left is to get a fucking penile implant - which are two inflatable tubes that they surgically implant into your dick, a squeeze ball that they surgically implant into your scrotum in-between your nuts, and a fluid reservoir that they surgically implant into your lower abdomen. It's going to cost me like $19,000 and only lasts about 8 to 10 years on average. And so taking finasteride was the worst decision of my LIFE. I'd do anything to go back and never take that poison again. Granted, my side effect severity level is probably rare, but it's not as rare as both medical professionals and finasteride users prefer to believe. There's LOTS of stories like mine that you can find online. I ended up getting a FUT hair transplant a couple of years ago, and it looks pretty good.

(cont.)

>>511330817
Granted, my hair is still shedding a bit because I'm not on finasteride (I am on oral minoxidil without issues though), and so I'm probably going to need a 2nd hair transplant so that it looks completely full. But it still looks 95% full and natural, and you can't notice the smiley face scar on the back of my scalp, because I carefully selected a hair transplant surgeon and forked out a lot of money for it (about $12,000). And so if I could go back in time, I'd just get on oral Minoxidil early (topical is too annoying for me), take a couple of other hair growth supplements, invest in a red light therapy hat, maybe do micro needling at home, and fork out the dough for a couple of hair transplants if that didn't work. But, like I said, that's just me. Your chances of experiencing what I did are probably low. And so if you are going to use finasteride, I suggest the weakest dose possible or applying it sparingly and topically in order to reduce the risk of side effects (topical application still becomes systemic and spreads to every part of your body from what I read). Just be careful out there, bros. Don't trust the pharma Jew.

Finasteride works, but it literally turned off my emotions for the first 2-3 weeks. No problems with my dick or anything. You should also do biweekly microneedling (with a pen, not a roller) at your hairline to slowly recuperate lost ground.

PFS is not real, its a lawsuit scam. I've been on 2.5mg Dutasteride for about a year, maybe a little bit less, and I've had really good results. I was on Finasteride previously for about 2 years which I was a good responder to, its just I wanted more regrowth and I think I've gotten it. I was getting close to a norwood 3, but now I'm probably a norwood 2. Might get a hair transplant at some point and go back to norwood 1.

Trying way too hard.

I’ve been taking fin and min every single day for about a year and zero side effects at all. Don’t be scared. Baldness is just as bad or worse than any potential sides and if they are bad you can stop taking it. Don’t let anyone in here scare you. Getting your hairline back or keeping it is worth more than you know.

I think there’s topical stuff that basically only affects your scalp and leaves your balls and stuff in tact which I’ve considered if I start losing it early, though my hair is fine right now. The pills are a system level DHT restrictor and probably should be avoided at all costs. Something like minoxidil is relatively harmless and can probably stave off baldness for a couple of years although it’s not a long term fix. I’ve also read that you can get to a point where you only need to apply fin every few days to get an equivalent effect for treating hair loss but they usually try to keep you on a daily dose which seems like it’s intended specifically for lowering your androgen levels.

I have really curly hair on account of Celtic genes, my mom and dad both had it and my mom is 100% English/Scottish and my dad is a German/Irish/Welsh mutt

>>511346021
I take 6mg fin a day, 200mg spironolactone, 8mg estradiol

I can't blown loads anymore though, completely dry orgasms

No thanks bro.

>>511346053
i remember reading a study that showed topicals go systemic too, just takes more time, unless you take really really low concentration topical which probably wont do shit for your hair.

OOF LMAO
BRUH not even finasteride can save that.
This guy needs dutasteride NOW, Dutasteride blocks DHT type1, which Finasteride doesn't.
DHT type 1 destroys the hairline,

probably wouldnt recommend dutasteride to a 16-17yo (isnt this the age of a us high school senior?), guy might still be in puberty and generally you dont wanna suppress dht before youre fully mature.

I haven’t seen that. The only studies I’ve found suggest an eventual plateau effect - topical solutions generally result in an overall decrease of ~30-35% DHT concentration overall mainly from the scalp, which occurs after around a year and generally stays there, while oral solutions are more like 60-70% reduction by the 6 month marker.

Generally speaking, the lower your test level is before taking it, the worse off you probably are after as it does lower overall testosterone/androgen levels. If you have naturally high T, workout, eat steak etc it’s probably not going to effect you, but I can definitely see how someone who’s already low T, skinny fat, etc could be pushed over the edge to getting gyno and other issues by further lowering androgen levels with it.

Whether it’s worth it is really a matter of age. I’d say it’s worth preserving your hair if you start losing it in your 20s when it’s still a key part of maintaining your attractiveness which in turn is relevant in getting a partner/dates, moving up in career etc. if it only becomes an issue by the time you’re like 40, when your test levels are already starting to decrease, baldness becomes relatively common among your age cohort, and you’ve likely already reached your peak as far as attractiveness is concerned, I don’t see the point.

>>511346791
No I can literally squeeze it and break it

It helps in bed because most men are so used to giving their dick the death grip that regular sex doesn't get them off.

Stop jerking off so much and if you do don't squeeze it so damn hard because once you get in bed with a gal you won't even orgasm.

I wouldn't worry about hair, my hairline thinned out at 20, but now I'm 45 and I still have all my hair. All my friends who made fun of me now have substantially worse hair loss than I do. You got more important things to worry about than hair, money being the most important.

>>511346845
Finasteride doesnt lower your testosterone levels, it increases them slightly - dht is made from testosterone after all and fin/dut block that.
DHT might have some regulating qualities but it seems its not very necessary for a functioning adult man. Fin side effects are caused by it increading estradiol in some with overly active aromatase, not because it lowers your androgens.

>>511322313 (OP)
>just some schizo bullshit
it's schizo bs. if you're afraid try 0.2 mg every 2 days. if you see no sides you can go to every day, then 0.5, then 1, then 1.25 (5mg pills divided by 4, much cheaper).

>>511343975
I don't know how to feel about this guy.
He gives okay-ish advices.
But he's a massive leftoid and a lolcow, for some reason he hates oral minoxidil despite that is FDA approved because one nigger (allegedly) had an arrhythmia.
He shills finasteride over dutasteride despite Finasteride is fucking inferior.

It sends your shbg through the roof which destroys free testosterone, total test doesnt even enter the equation

Googling high shbg effects is basically the same as googling finasteride side effects

Anyone taking Fin is retarded. You have a faucet and that faucet leaks. So you block the faucet from leaking by taking faucet out. Now it won't rust! Yes Nigga. But your Dick is also getting no water now you simpleton Jew. B-b-but I feel no side effect Senpai. No shit, just like a weakling feels no side effects. He's just weak now. Shave your bussy while you're at it. Faggot.

His only choice now...shave head and grow as much beard as he can...

>>511347496
he admits dutasteride is better, he just doesnt take it because its sold in a gelatin capsule and the faggot is a vegan.
he has some good takes but like influencers in general, he is addicted to attention and says dumb shit all the time because that gets views.

>>511347539

Pleased for you fella

>>511347368
It does lower overall androgen levels. It generally increases free testosterone levels, so accurate there, but that’s because it is blocked from converting to DHT, which means in turn you have much more being converted to estrogen instead. The most significant impact thusly is actually testosterone/estrogen ratio; iirc multiple studies have been done showing a slight increase in free testosterone levels, overall decrease in total testosterone (obviously since there’s less DHT which is still considered an androgen), but most notably a massive increase in estrogen levels (2-3x baseline). Thats basically what you’re pointing out as well

>>511347539
>Just know that you don't have to be a man forever
This so delusional it's hard to even know where to begin. The very BEST, top 0.1% of troons who pass and look good, are only able to maintain that for single digit years before they rot like fucking fruit and enter negative numbers on the 1-10 attractiveness scale. You're literally better off being a 3/10 man just barely not gross enough that hookers don't tell you to kick rocks.

>>511346845
It doesn't lower overall testosterone, you RETARD, it immediately, acutely, stops testosterone from being converted to DHT, thus Increasing testosterone, immediately. Gyno is caused by testosterone being turned to into estrogen, the person needs to already have gyno in order for this extra 10% testosterone turn into estrogen. So having high T Increases the risk of gyno if the enzyme that turns testosterone into estrogen is over-expressed.

Finasteride will be the difference between a baldie 40yo with lower life expectancy, yes finasteride increases life expectancy, and higher test 40yo with a handsome hair. Your post is the lowest garbage possible, go do something else in your life.

Kevin Mann is a faggot that shills castration drugs that trannies take. Take fin/dut if you don't like having a sex drive or a functioning brain or penis. He's literally a salesman in the medical industry and his brother molested his children. That's who you're taking advice from.

>>511347769
See >>511347704

Free testosterone does not = total testosterone/androgen.

>>511347769
What do you think happens to your baseline when your test increases and DHT gets nuked? Estrogen goes up faggot. Fucking retarded half bonobo. Our Ancestors shouldve creampied your kind more for extra IQ points. I'm sorry that we didn't, our bad! Faggot.

>>511347704
>massove increase in estrogen
that isnt generally observed at all. and you deleted a post about fin exploding your shgb which isnt true either.
again, some people do get real sides due to the increase in E, but it is not a massive increase by any means, for most its a 10-20% increase which is unnoticable, and this is well reflected in every single quality study about fins sides too. if tripled your E you would certainly have a lot more men experiencing noticable sides, but even the srudies with the worst results, the side effects are like 5% more pronounced than in placebo group.

>>511343819
I have heard about it. A hair transplant surgeon that I consulted with warned me about it, but ensured me it's probably safe as long as I don't go above 5mg per day - which is what I've been on for the last couple of years. I also lied about having heart-related symptoms in order to get a cardiologist to do a full analysis of my cardiovascular system about a year ago - which my health insurance covered. And everything came back perfect - besides learning that I have slightly leaky vein in my left calve. But I have experienced sporadic chest pains since getting on it - which is concerning. We're talking a sudden 2/10 pain that only lasts a few seconds like once every couple of months. But it's a risk I'm willing to take because I look so much better with a full beard and an almost full head of hair (thanks to oral Minoxidil and a hair transplant that I got a couple of years ago).
>>511344043
I heard it's relatively safe if you use the pen version, as opposed to the roller version, and replace the needles regularly.

>>511348003
>deleted a post

Never did that. Confused with another anon?

But after re checking my sources you are correct. Increase in estrogen levels are real but generally only 15% (though some record as high as 30%). Still significant and something to keep in mind.

>>511347816
t. tim pool

>>511348216
someone else did that then. and i agree that the rise in E can be significant to some and its always a good idea to keep an eye on your hormones, your post was just a bit overly alarmist. respect for your ability to admit being mistaken.

I took finasteride (and dutasteride lol) in my mid-twenties (39 now), and it was fucking terrible. It completely killed my sex drive. At the time, I was so desperate to keep my hair I convinced myself the side effects were the nocebo effect or depression - anything to keep my hair. Thankfully I stopped it. I shaved my head, started lifting weights and never looked back.
