What about methyl-steroids??

To summarize: Your suggestion is to take boatloads of antidepressants and to exercise? You also suggested sleep medication for people having trouble in that department. Not trying to ridicule, its just an attempt at a cliff-notes summary.

Milando97 whatever is your opinion about Anonymous1968, keep for yourself, make sure to post something valuable instead to be critic.

Antidepressant can increase Neurogenesis, what make a lot of sense to contribute to the recovery, Italy study found impaired Neurogenesis.
No all antidepressant work the same, for example Bupropion.

Is this one shown to increase neurogenisis? Do you have a study showing this for bupropion specifically?

#81

Yep. I’d considered using heavy antidepressants as well, since they alter the chemicals in the brain and with a little luck might actually fix PFS. I decided not to because it’s also possible to make things worse.

That’s the game we play with everything isn’t it?

#83

Did you mean to tag me bruv?

Oh gosh, please be careful with ad’s guys. I guess our endo system is really vulnerable for things that fuck with it.

There have been a couple members flag the opening post for being spam.

While the OP may have posted some content that could be easily construed as spam in the past, he has posted nothing in this particular topic that indicates he is trying to financially incentivise his content on behalf of himself or any other party.

The “TIPS” section of his post has been edited to prevent conveying his supposed methods of recovery as recommendations. The recommendation to take “boatloads of antidepressants” is especially alarming considering the number of people who have been left with a PFS-like condition after, sometimes very small, amounts of certain antidepressants.

@anonymous1968

This makes it sound as if you started recovering while you were still taking finasteride. Surely you meant 2015?

Are you being serious?

Also apparently OP believes that only a boatload will do. One brand seemingly isnt enough, or normal doses. It has to be a boadload of antidepressants.

Bupropion or Wellbutrin are different type of antidepressant, I toke it before for only 8 weeks late in 2016 and help a lot, probably the reason that I am feeling better today, in fat I already ask to my doctor for a new prescription.

So he is not so crazy for what he said, it is just a matter of evaluate the antidepressant before to take it ( and yes most of the antidepressant cause loss of libido and I do not recommend to take any of that classes)

I can vouch for Wellbutrin. higher libido and better mood since i started about 10 mths ago

I just started Wellbutrin but I had a question on dosing. My doctor said to take the 100mg sr once a day but from what I’m reading it’s meant to be twice a day? What dose did y’all take?
