Hey First of all after Finasterid i has No Libido , testicle pain , No morning erection , No spontanes erection , dry eyes severe ,
After 6 months i Take kreatinin and after some days my Libido came Back full, my testicle pain went away also spontane and morning erection came Back but Same time i became new Symptoms Till this day .
New Symptoms started in october 2023 .
Curved erection , left bended Penis , new veins , pain penile . Thats my only Symptoms
My Libido IS normal also testicle pain full away , morning erection 50% and spontanes erection are full Back .
but the new Symptoms are a Lot worse because my erection IS painfull and curved , my Penis Bend to the left Side especially by Walking ITS get worse , dorsal vein Changed and other new veins and pain in my penile flaccid .
My biggest fear IS that ITS never Go Back to normal . I have read a Lot about Libido came Back etc but Changes of veins and bending Penis i never read this Shit or If Somebody recovered From this .
How the fuck can fucking kreatinin do this with my Body wtf ?
Im thankfully for any answer.
