I’m off of Finasteride. Should have listened to my wife when she said that it had side effects. My Doctor told me it would not affect sex drive or erection. I choose to believe him, not her. Now my libido is lousy, and erections are nothing to speak of. I originally believed it was her, not me, even though nothing has changed, if anything she is healthier then when we met.
Well you can resist just so long, and I’m done with Finasteride. What do I do now? Libido is still gone. It’s only been a few days. I tried going off of it once for she begged me to, but libido didn’t change in the two months I stayed off, so I told her it couldn’t be the meds.
What natural treatments do members here know of, to make sure that I do not regress to where I was prior to taking Finasteride. I was taking this for enlarged prostate, and difficulty urinating.
I noted that pumpkin, nettle, zinc, pygeum, and lycopene may help.
Read that I should leave out Saw Palmetto, which is also a culprit for E.D. when dose is high, and may indeed in any quantity lead to irreversible side effects, if indeed you are one of the many who respond unfavorably to drugs or herbs which work by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone into DHT.
What has actually worked for those of you who are trying the above?
Furthermore, I was also informed that taking L-arginine about 1500 mg, one hour prior to intimacy,
may make that erection easier to maintain. Have any of you tried that?
Any suggestions… please no advertisers with erection cure spam… I want to hear from those who went through what I am going through and what actually helped.
