anyone know how long can propecia stay in your body after you taking it nearly a year and stoped by now?
It’s half life is 6 hours, so if you take 1mg, 0.0078125mg will be in your system after a week. In other words, it’s physically excreted quite fast, however it can leave long term damage, fondly referred to as PFS.
According to Merck, any side effects should subside within 2 weeks after quitting the drug. Apparently, that’s how long it takes for the hormone values to return to baseline. However, finasteride is an irreversible inhibitor, which means that the reductase enzymes becomes defect when the drug binds to them. The body has to replace the enzymes, and the half-life of this process is around 30 days according to patent information. After one month, 50% of the enzymes should’ve been replaced. 75% should’ve been replaced after 2 months, and so forth. Note: they should have been replaced. We don’t know if that’s the case, considering that we’re left with the horrible side effects long after quitting the drug. However, I’ve found a way to prove whether or not they’re working, and another guy has already delivered an urine sample for the test. We’re currently awaiting the results.
We should not trust what pharmas tell us. We will have to find our own ways to find if 5AR inhibitors are still in our body or 5AR enzymes are working normally after stopping 5AR inhibitors. Over time many studies/researches have been proved engineered or fraudulent. After all still a big part of Medical Community does not believe pfs. I personally believe after 5AR inhibitors binds to receptors stay in our body tissues.
Bind? I think wipe out receptors
I’m in doubt between two theories: toxicity (Propecia still on our body) or autoimmune disease (the body produces anti-bodies to inhibit the enzyme)
I had a full temporary recovery with arimidex. There is a some people with temporary recovery here.
how some people have temporary recovery if propecia is inside our body?
