Hello! I am new here

Hello!

I would like to share my story and ask you whether you can help me. I am 32 years ol, male with 6’1 and 170lbs.

I have taken Propecia from 2008-2012 and stopped taking it since 2012. Since stopping to take it I have these symptoms:

frequent urination
weak urinary stream
problems with having a hard penis when I want to have sex (I have to use cialis)
weak orgasm

I would be glad, if someone could say a few words to my problems.

Thanks!
