I have a few questions/survey, it would help me a lot if people could answer these.

General Discussion
#1

Been going through post-fin sides for about a few years now. I wanted to make a bunch of questions up to compare my experiences with others to possible gain any insight into my condition.

There is no doubt in my mind fin is the primary cause of my problems, but I want to compare other possible factors that have made me worse or better other than others, or what I have in common with people whose side effects persisted. Please answer as honestly as possible.

[b]1. How long were you on Fin? How long have you been off fin?

  1. Have you improved at all since quitting? Gotten worse?

  2. Discuss your health otherwise briefly, by defining overweight/underweight, diet healthy/unhealthy, alcohol use frequency, smoker/non smoker, stress levels, sleep amount etc.

  3. Before fin have you ever, experienced any kind of sexual “dysfunction” (loss of erect during sex, whatever)?

  4. How severe would you describe your post fin sex side effects? Catastrophic? Diminished ability? Mild?

  5. What, if anything, has helped improve your sex drive/ability?

  6. Has anyone else experienced a cycle of improvement and crashes followed by more improvements followed by crashes and so on?

Gotten worse for the most part. Better than post crash.

Perfect body (185 ripped), social drinker, low stress laid back personality, slept like a baby.
Before fin have you ever, experienced any kind of sexual “dysfunction” (loss of erect during sex, whatever)?
Not even close.

Catastophic

Nothing.
Has anyone else experienced a cycle of improvement and crashes followed by more improvements followed by crashes and so on?
Body responded after two months in terms gaining some weight back (looked like I was about to die, friends and family were very concerned about how bad I looked). Had extreme flu symptoms and couldn’t piss and was given anti-biotics for prostatitis. After which time I had a month of continued improvement to the point where sexual function was coming back. This lasted for a week and then my prostate decided to blow up like a softball. Now I’m a mess again. So yes, this thing doesn’t just die off; its kind of like a slasher movie.

161 lbs, fairly clean diet, had phases of quite a bit of alcohol as I’m a student, non smoker, went through a lot of stress and anxiety around the time I was on propecia.
