Penile curviness & urinal drippage

So I’ve been on fin for 2 periods, first time lasted 1,5 years from 6/2006 to 1/2008. Since quitting I felt pretty damn good (at least a lot better than I did while on fin) for roughly 3 years (no scalp itch which was the most annoying side IMO) before a sudden change early this year. My skin went crazy, scalp itches on NW5 area, hair is dull and dry and skin feels very dull and “slippery dry” overall. The skin situation is hard to explain, it just feels so dull and dry, it’s hard to get a proper grip when weight training and also other objects seem to slip through my hands from time to time.

So to make a long story short, I panicked and got on fin train again. I started 4/2011 and since I didn’t notice any improvement whatsoever, I quit again about a month ago. My worst sides have been itchy scalp, gyno, sensitive breasts, tiredness, curved penis (it was slightly curvy before fin but now it’s curved way to the left and down), and worst of all: urinal dripping after peeing. The urinal dripping was way worse the 2nd time around, I could get like 2 teaspoons of urine in my pants after peeing. It’s like the prostate doesn’t empty properly. I went to a test 1.5 yrs ago to get it checked but the x-rays showed that the prostate did empty. But the test was done in the morning and for some reason I don’t usually get the urinal dripping in the morning. Anyway, this was my story so far… waiting if I’ll ever get back to normal again. ATM I’m also very tired and fatigued, I hardly can arse myself to go to gym twice a week! And I was ultra-active. And no, fin hasn’t helped my hair one bit. Has anyone else experienced this urinal dripping thingie?

Yep, i was experiencing it earlier today SO bad.

Do have urinary urgency or otherwise involuntary urination?

Yeah I sometimes feel that I have to “go” a little bit too often. But this urinal dripping happens straight after peeing. I go and take a piss, get back to what I’m doing and if I f.eg. sit down, there comes the pee! It’s like it’s trapped inside the prostate and when I sit down, bend forward or anything like that, the pee gets released straight into my pants. At worst I’ve had to change my clean underwear that I just recently changed.

I had a similar problem- a tendency to leak slightly after urinating. The amounts weren’t great, but enough to be distressing. The urologist I consulted could find no abnormality and recommended kegel exercises.

[Warning- embarrassing suggestion coming up] Try pressing the area immediately behind your scrotum when you have finished urinating. There’s a section of your waterworks in that area where urine can collect. Sorry to be disgusting, but it might help alleviate the problem.

In my case, the problem has subsided. Hopefully it will for you, too.

Yes i always get that nice wee (no pun intended) patch on my nickers after i urinate.

Same here. I pretty much ignored the sexual and other sides while I was on Propecia but the piss leaking after being “done” kept getting worse and worse to where I finally quit. Its improved some but it still happens to me every time I take a piss, just sometimes its worse than others.

It’s “good” to hear that I’m not the only one getting this side… just to know I’m not imagining things like the pro-fin ppl always say.

I know this thread is so old but @ghg has this problem persisted for you? Did you try any other treatments? Cause I’ve experienced exactly what you’ve described for two-ish years and it’s getting worse. Again, I know this is a really old thread but I’m freaking desperate here. Nobody in the Canadian medical system believes me. They all say it’s “anxiety” and will get better, but it’s gotten much worse and I’ve waited two months for a scan and they haven’t contacted me at all.
