I will begin an extremely aggressive exercise regimen in about a week. I have noticed improvements from exercise in the past, so I have my fingers crossed.
Exercising can increase your hormones if your systems functioning correctly. Though if your hormones are at hypogonadal levels, there not go up to optimum or average levels naturally. Things like a shot of HCG may upregulate your system.
I canāt stress enough about how raising androgens really does help. Whether you try it through a shot of T, DHT, LH. I seriously was at melting point with mental sides,sexual sides and once cycling HCG felt the life pump back through my veins and all those symptoms disapeared. Iām not saying that iām perfect, but i probably do overreact on my comments on posts, but reading every āpropecia did this to meā āmy penis used to be 12ā now itās 1" " āLets do a theory on if left or right handed people, get PFSā just drives me bonkers. 
I skipped zoloft yesterday and didnt feel this way. Maybe its the zoloft. Im asking my doctor to wean me off the zoloft monday. I will ask for seroquel for anxiety instead.
Head Pressure is defintley a symptom of anti-depressants.
Isnāt seroquel an anti-psychotic? I know someone that takes it, itās ment to be pretty strong.
Well, its supposed to work well for anxiety. No sex side effects. Much better than zoloft i think. I guess no medicine would be best, but my anxiety is making it to where i cant function at work.
Does anyoneās head pressure get worse or change at all during or after a jog / running?
Fuck, Iāve had this pressure since 2008 daily. 95% behind my head. Like migraine pressure or a numb area not receiving enough circulation? I NEVER get a ānormal headacheā since PFS, and stopping the poison drug, since 2008. Normal headache = in front of head and forehead.
Head pressures are miserable / painful / frightening, and are definitely caused, by propecia usage, and associated with the PFS purgatory of the horrid anhedonic, dead man walking, zombie, cognitive dysfunction.
seroquel is a dopamine blocker dont do that! ask him for ropinirole instead!
Hey rob, yes I talked to you about this on Facebook, and tried biking today, with horrible headpressure, but it only occurs on the back of my head, and rarely sometimes on my temples or behind eyes, when the headpressure is worse, the congitive shift gets much worse, to the point of almost amnesia, very hard to explain, the headpressure kinda reminds me of some kind of alcohol withdrawal syndrome.
When I took diazepam the headpressure went away, which points towards it being more like alcohol withdrawal syndrome
Any updates from the folks who have/had head pressure?
i have that too. till yet no big improvements. i havent thought that there is a condition that is able to take away the pleasure of reading books from youā¦
I have trouble reading as well. Where is your member story?
maybe we can contact each other i dont have one. i will do it in the next weeks. i think i got pfs from going on/off/on/off but the last time off i really crashed. then mental sides kicked in. while taking the drug no mental sides ( ok depression maybe and a bit brainfog but could read books) . also ejaculation hurted after crashing. and i got prostatitis symptoms. prostatitis has gone away and ejaculation is not hurting anymore. but rest ist still there. very strange experiencr
so every doctor that says its all in your head is a stupid idiot. thats clearly a pharmalogical effectā¦
ah and very strange was that 2 weeks after i stopped propecia i looked porn and felt literally nothing. like an animal movie. that was the first time i have noticed something is not normal with me anymore
Anyone notice their head pressure is worse when laying down?
its worse when its hot in my case

Man this is crazy. I had a traffic incident a few weeks ago, and feared legal problems would arise. Id been feeling ok before that. But as stress built the following week, I ended up with a panic attack. After the panic attack, a few days later I awoke with brain fog and pressure behind my forehead. It has now been over a week with this symptoms. SO I have learned stress can DEFINITELY cause this reaction in our case. I have read about derealization and depersonalization caused from extreme stressful situations such as what our bodies went through. Though I understand that in our case, it is due to nuerosteroid down regulation, I found it interesting that people without PFS have derealization from extreme trauma. Its the brains coping mechanism of not dealing with the extreme event, shutting off except basic functions of breathing and heartbeat, and basic awareness. Though, I am not sure what purpose this would serve in a survival situation. Perhaps to stun the animal to refrain from any dangerous activity except lying still? Im rambling now.

Thanks for that report. I think stress is a major part of my symptoms getting better/worse.
I hope the traffic accident stress has subsided now.
10 days later I feel normal- ok again! Stress subsided
