For the most part. I’ll have to examine my dick more, but I definitely haven’t seen it shrivel up lately.

Hey, guys. Just a quick update.
Continuing to see improvements. Back is doing much better. I got some back pain that lasted 5 days after I shoveled a ton of snow a couple weeks ago. I think I lost a ton of muscle in the back and I have to restore it. I’ll look into deadlifts.
I can drink coffee again!!! I no longer get heart palpitations, ball pain and insomnia after drinking coffee. This is a GIANT improvement for me, as I’m a big coffee guy. Feels so good to drink coffee again after almost a year. I am only drinking seldomly incase there are side effects that I might not be aware of. For now, I’m sticking mostly with water and avoiding other drinks until I feel I made an adequate recovery.
I think my libido is also improving. Had a very slight desire to bang a girl yesterday. Didn’t have that since this whole fiasco started.
Hair is continuing to improve. Not sure how I should feel about this. Pre-fin, I could see some thinning on my left corner. It got worse in the initial months of PFS when I got a huge shed. Today, it looks much better than even pre-fin. Not 100% full, but it most certainly looks much fuller than pre-fin. Very, very weird. You would think Test/DHT restoration would make my hair worse. I also haven’t gotten any scalp itch / scalp zits in months now. It’s so confusing. I do feel like my androgen receptors / androgen levels are normalizing, since I get the urge to bang girls and my muscles are coming back, so why isn’t my hair thinning?
Also, why in the world would lowering my DHT cause my scalp to itch like hell, cause my scalp hair to fall off, and cause my body hair to grow? Is it possible that some people have some kind of reverse reaction to androgens? This is all so confusing.
Joints, of course, are doing better. I haven’t gotten shoulder joint pain in a 3 months now. Unfortunately, it still pop but much less frequently than before.
Hope to report back with more improvements.
One thing I would like to tell newcomers is that I feel that my recovery happened without any kind of intervention. I waited patiently. Even when I saw 5 months of no progress, I refused to experiment with supplements. Also note that I was a particularly HORRIBLE case of PFS. I got the whole list of side effects except for depression and suicidal thoughts. I had almost every symptom imaginable.

No cold penis, but my dick looked very shriveled.
I think it still shrivels up when I take a dump sometimes.
Not sure about my balls. No change, I guess.
@ WorriedGuy123 …after 3 month on Fin i lost many, many hairs ( sides and back ). The same happened to you? Will it ever regrow?
Hello, friend.
Yes, in first few months after fin, I was losing hair all over my scalp and I had immense scalp itch. Hairs from my sides and back were also coming off.
And yes, they did grow back eventually, but it took almost 8 months to notice regrowth… I’d say it’s even better than pre-fin.
Now , 3 month without fin, i think, i will loose all my hair.It is thinning very fast and heavy on sides and back.I can’t see small hairs growing.There is nothing😥
Stay strong, man. 3 months is still early.
Ok, but some never had any regrow.Looks terrible
Same for me. It looked like I lost hair permanently.
There is nothing you can do but wait.
Something like that?
Yes. I was able to see my skin on my sides.
I’m not guaranteeing that your hair will come back. All I’m saying is that 3 months is too soon.
Update: Tinnitus hasn’t happened in a very long time. Hopefully it’s gone for good.
Still experimenting on my back. The discomfort comes back every now and then.
Update: Back pain went away a day after my last post. I’m still not sure what caused it last time. Very frustrating.
I started taking vitamins a week ago, and it appears my tolerance has improved since last time. I don’t get any adverse reactions from them aside from slight stomach distension. Hopefully I see more improvements.
I think I was taking my supplements way too long after meals, and that was causing stomach dissension.
I tried eating my multivitamins right after meals now and no stomach issues.
Things are looking up.
Hope you all are doing fine.
I no longer get insomnia after exercising past 9 PM.
Things are continuing to stabilize.
I had an extremely slight discomfort on my back yesterday that went away. The intensity and duration was definitely less than previous episodes. Hopefully it’s a good sign.
Think I had a set back. Not sure what caused it.
More updates:
Hair continues to improve. Not sure how to feel about this. I still get no more scalp itch or zits.
My stomach feels bloated for some reason.
I had diarrhea a few days back and it felt like a lot of symptoms reappeared although in a milder form. I think I’m slowly getting back to baseline.

Hope you’re doing ok
The bloated stomach is still there, unfortunately. Hopefully it goes away.
I’ve also started burping non-stop and I started getting dry coughs again. I think I may have GERD. Gonna have to see my doctor.
