So far this is the best and most inspiring story on the board.I’ve templated my recovery regimen on this story. Softie…do you have any updates on your condition? How are you doing?
yes, how r u now?
because this is a somewhat active thread, I’ll post here.
The problem, I believe, that many of us are having is that skin and genital tissues (and probably other internal tissues) were de-sensitized by the use of Finasteride. I have no explanation beyond this, but I firmly believe that the way that the entire post-Finasteride undead state gets ‘cured’ is by somehow becoming re-sensitized, or sensitive again. Also, if you were to find a way to re-sensitize one area of the body, hopefully the sensitization would spread throughout all organs affected (brain, prostate, derma, testes, penis, etc.).
I know this type of post is really for the the “theories” section, but I’m not sure that all of you who are currently viewing this forum are checking all of the thread topic areas. Those who are trying to boost androgens need to be aware that doing so may not work for all of us. Big Softie states that he lost no penis size, but some of us obviously have–including myself. I believe that the painful sensations I felt after quitting Finasteride was neural damage in the penis and testes which have never recovered.
I’d like to add that I took a product which further de-sensitized my penis although it was designed to reduce Estrogen production (Inhibit-E). I would suggest all of you consider carefully what you do with hormone supplements because the results aren’t always good; sometimes things get worse.
how do you know it was the inhibit e that made you penis shrink more? maybe it was still just shrinking anyway
To inhibit E
The aromatase inhibitor 1,4,6-androstatriene-3,17-dione (ATD) reduces disinhibitory behavior in intact adult male rats treated with a high dose of testosterone.

Abstract
Anabolic androgenic steroids and high testosterone doses have been reported to induce impulsive behavior in man and behavioral disinhibition in rats. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether aromatization of testosterone to estradiol is of importance for the behavioral disinhibiting effect of a high testosterone dose in adult male rats. Testosterone administered via five testosterone-filled silastic capsules implanted subcutaneously (s.c.) to non-castrated, group-housed rats for six days induced behavioral disinhibition in a modified Vogel’s drinking conflict model and yielded supraphysiological serum levels of testosterone and increased accessory sex organ weights. Moreover, concurrent administration of the aromatase inhibitor 1,4,6-androstatriene-3,17-dione (ATD; 60 mg/kg/day s.c.) decreased behavioral disinhibition in testosterone-treated rats (without affecting accessory sex organ weights) while behavior was not significantly affected in sham-treated animals. Since some reports indicate that ATD, in addition to inhibit aromatase, also may affect the binding of testosterone to the androgen receptor, the effect of the non-steroidal androgen receptor antagonist flutamide was investigated. Flutamide treatment did not affect disinhibited behavior in testosterone-treated rats. However, in sham-treated animals, flutamide (50mg/kg/day) produced behavioral disinhibition. These results suggest that estradiol is of importance in the mechanisms underlying behavioral disinhibition in non-castrated rats treated with a high testosterone dose. Speculatively, aromatization may be involved in pro-impulsive effects of high testosterone doses in humans.

It didn’t shrink more (noticeably); it became even less sensitive… and I mean it was clear and within 5 days and effective from then onward.
Anti estrogen products are not to be taken by Pfs suffers basically what it does a shrinks the testicles and the penis it completely shrinks them don’t know why but it does it has happened to me and also other Propecia sufferers I hate what has happened to my body basically looks like a ladies body I used to be a very muscular man but today my body has morphed into almost like a lady’s body
^^ Didn’t happen to me and I see no reason why that would happen. Even if you crashed your estrogen it’d eventually recover.
So big softie recovered?? Did anyone talk to him after the claim??? All he did was to use the sustain alpha?
big softie, what about facial recoveries?
- dry grey hair recovery?
- sunken eyes recovery?
- subcutanous fat loss recovery?
- feminin facial features recovery?
5day finasteride
stop finasteride
Starting crash…
One year later
i’m not recovery…
i wan’t die…
help me please…please…please…
I can be there any recovery?
I do not want to live.
This on true!!
After my pfs started one of the things me any endo tried was clomid. During my approx year and a half of being on clomid my estrogen was to high. I had such an awesome response to clomid, my LH and FSH went increased a lot as did my total and free testosterone. Anyways at one point during my clomid treatment I also went on arimedex to lower estrogen. At that point my penis shrunk and my ed got worse never to recover back to my post arimedex days .
The only good news for me is sense taking that arimedex which made my ed worse and caused penis to shrink (which was also first time I noticed actually shrinkage) pfs onset never actually caused shrinkage just ed I have gone back to normal testosterone levels both free and total. This has caused some of the arimedex induced shrinkage to improve both flaccid and during erection.
But still ed caused my pfs than worsened by arimedex has not yet improved.
So deff truth to is being said here. For some reason estrogen reducers can make pfs suffers worse
Hey can you link me to what the dermacrine sustain product looks like?
Are your orgasms came back to pre-fin state? Can you get full contracted, mind blowing orgasms like you used to? And how about your semen\ejaculation volume? I hope you are really, fully recovered. I’d like to know the answers of my questions from your view.
@Cooper Hey there, check the dates on those posts. @Big_Softie (I assume that is who you’re
asking) hasn’t signed in in 7 years so you might not get a reply anytime soon.
