I NEED ADVICE!

General Discussion
#1

I took this medecine for around 2 months before i read online how potentially harmful it could be.

I had been taking 1mg daily. I quit taking it for 4 days and already seemed to experience some of the PFS synptoms…namely brain fog, nervousness, insomnia.

I didnt think it was possible to feel these effects so quickly? I thought normally if you quit you feel better for weeks afterwards, then often crash

Ive read that tapering is a more healthy way to quit, so after those 4 days ive gone back on the medecine for the last two days, and im hoping to slowly taper down my dose.

Am i doing this right? Or should i just try to quit cold turkey?

I could not surely say what you should do but in this forum only i had read that tapering off is the right way.

Although i myself quit cold turkey and after one month my endocrine system crashed ,for one month after quitting it appeared to be normal or may be i have not much noticed.

Wait for advice from Admin (mew) ,he can surely guide you because of more experience with the subject.

But definitely finasteride is poison which should be stopped ASAP.

Good luck :slight_smile:
