Anything not listed in the above questions you’d like to share about your experience with Finasteride?
Tell us your story, in your own words, about your Finasteride usage and side effects experienced while on/off the drug.
well, before i want to know myself first if my disease is mere prostatitis or propecia side effect
Generally if it looks like a rat and smells like a rat its a rat…i love that one proscarred
ok, but you said generally not absolutely 
i say that because before i insist with my doctor i want to show him something undoubtable …
if not he can treat my disease like a prostatitis
u know how actually doctors consider “paranoid” the idea of finasteride syndrome …
My story
when i used propecia, i never had any sides eff.
symptoms started after quitting
only reading this site i have related symptoms and finasteride
if in the future maybe i will say:“recovered” i can’t be sure if was a recovery from finasteride syndrome
that’s all
many of the people here only get the symptoms after quitting - if you read through the site youll notice similarities.
