Hey all. Im 23 and in good shape (73kgms at 6 foot) and eat a well balanced diet. I also smoke marijuana a few times a week. I drink alcohol maybe once a month in small amounts.

I quit Finasteride (proscar) about 1.5 months ago. I was on it for 4 years at quater pill a day (1.25gm i think).

Anyway i basically have all the side affects menchoned. Including…

Erectile dysfunction (i can manually masturbate and do so everyday).
Brain fog.
Plus i generally just havent felt myself in a long time.

Ok so i have a few questions to start of…

Is there a general timeline for how long side affects take to go away depending on how long one was on the drug?

Does age and health/lifestyle have an affect also on recovery time?

Im going to the doctor tomorrow for blood tests and alltho i have seen the list for all the recommended tests i can only afford the most important so if someone could tell me the top 5 to 10 in order that i should get done?

Is there a part on the forum where i can fill out some pre written questions to help me out in telling my story?

Also any tips that have helped a larger majority of the people here would be good.

Cheers and thanks for this website/forum…
