!!!! FOR THOSE EXPERIENCING MENTAL FOG !!!!

[Mk1]

i have spoke with an expert who has explained the brain fog for propecia attention everyone i think you might want to stay off foods that contains fat :

"Propecia (Finasteride) is an Anti Androgenic agent. It reduces the levels of Di Hydro Testestoserone in the body and thus stimulating hair growth.

Now, it is seen in rare cases that this Finasteride also reduces the production of Allopregnanolone in the body.

This Allopregnanolone is required for the proper functioning of the neurons of the brain and a decrease in its levels causes a degenerative accumulation of fat on the brain neurons, which causes a slowing of the neuronal impulses and gives rise to the Brain Fog and Weakness.

Now, this process in the early stages can be reversed, and you need to stop taking Propecia.

When you stop taking Propecia, the production of Allopregnolone in your body will rise and correct the imbalance and reduce your symptoms.This will definitely solve your problem.

If you continue to use propecia then your brain fog can detiriorate and mimic symptoms of Nieman-Pick’s Disease, with a progressive demylination of your brain neurons.

For your hair loss, you can apply Solution Minoxidil over the affected areas,
This will be better and without such serious side effects, as it is a topical application and will not be absorbed in your body.

To sum it up, you need to stop the Propecia and use Minoxidil topical application; this will solve both your problems.

I have answered all your questions completely and following my advice will help you with the hair loss as well as decreasing and eventually eliminating the Brain Fog.

Please rate my answer and leave a nice comment, I would really appreciate it.
Also, please let me have the option of contacting you in the future, as this way it will be easy for me to pass on any new information that I get, for free of course.

Sincerely,

Dr.Saurabh Joshi"

Hi Mk,

Yes, we have known finasteride’s effect on allopregnenolone for some time already. Who is this expert that you mention? A doctor, an ND? I suggest you search the old forum at yahoo for Smithpulitzer’s texts, he has a very sensible theory about the whole thing.

What about you yourself? I am curious about what kind of doctor are you? Are you and MD, ND or something else? It is great to get some extra help for the research.

If the brain fog has been very long after quitting the drug, can you mention something to correct the problem? We have a theory about progesterone doing this. I personally will try it in January-February.

Propecia/finasteride is also absolutely known to often cause a reduction in testosterone and a lack of testosterone is called hypogonadism.

Look up the symptoms of hypogonadism and you find a whole host of mental symptoms.

Depression
Anxiety
Loss of concentration
inability to concentrate

etc

In fact a lack of testosterone is implicated in the development of Alzheimer’s.

If you have low testosterone and it is increased on TRT or some other form of therapy then you will often find such symptoms disappear in hours.

…is indeed absorbed into the body. Why else would it sometimes decrease blood pressure?

[The_Ruffneck]

if you are experiencing sides from it it means too much is being absorbed into the body

i reduced my dose from 1ml 2x/day to 1/2 ml/2x day and the sides went away

and there is no way a topical is absorbed anywhere near as much as an internal
