Why are you trying to get banned? Whatās your purpose for posting here if you donāt care? It appears as if youāre simply seeking attention by trying to be a ābad boyā. Getting banned from a faceless internet forum is not cool and cluttering an information source for people who are truly suffering is a rotten thing to do.
You have suggested that a number of users should try taking finasteride or other 5AR2 inhibitors again because it worked for you temporarily.
Hereās a suggestion, instead of posting random statements in as many threads/on as many websites/under as many usernames as possible so no one can follow you, why donāt you [Size=4]POST ALL OF YOUR EXPERIENCES IN YOUR OWN THREAD ALONG WITH THE SUBSTANCES YOUāRE TAKING.[/size] It would help you build some credibility.
Your timeline is incorrect and not everyone developed the sides after quitting, many people developed sides before quitting. The hormonal surge typically happens around 10-14 days off finasteride and the crash starts about a week later when the hormones are suppressed again. And yes, most of us seem to think that taking this chemical poison again is crazy judging by your lack of support.
I donāt see the reason to be concerned as Proscar is usually given to men of a much older age bracket, an age bracket in which sexual side effects from propecia are more easily confused with the natural aging process. In addition, most of these men may not be as familiar with the internet as they didnāt grow up with it.
Bluecloud, itās very apparant that you have a problem and are seeking attention. Unfortunately itās not clear that this problem was related to finasterideā¦at least before you began to retake the drug. We all have problems or we wouldnāt be here and I donāt think anyone has the time to give you the attention you need.
While I donāt want to drive away anyone thatās been damaged from finasteride, I agree with the multiple members that have suggested it may be better for you to take a break from the forum for a while. You post contradicting statements here constantly and have on multiple occasions recommend very risky theoretical treatments to new members.
Why donāt you take a break while your presence here is still salvageable and come back when you can offer a calmer, more focused, and more rational perspective on your experience?
I would very much like to know if bluecloud is having sustained improvements from re-taking Dut. Does anyone happen to have his contact info (email or else)? If so, please PM me. Thanks.
4 capsules of Avodart left and right now i am feeling 100% recovered. Since waking up at 9 am this morning i have been popping spontaneous erections bordering on priapism every 20 minutes
I am getting a lot of yellow head spots like i would as a young teenager - i am guessing that the Avodart has indeed drastically boosted my testosterone levels.
I am also feeling perfectly normal mentally. No internal tremors, random anxiety, weak legs and other strange symptoms that would usually ruin every waking moment of my life. I wake up and move on with my day like a normal human being.
I will update you all once that i am a few weeks/ months off Avodart. I really do think there is a chance that i have gotten myself better but only time will tell. If i happen to slip back into āPFS modeā after the Avodart therapy then i will consider another 30 days on the drug.
this is speculation⦠but it sounds like PFS is our body somehow adapting to having the 5AR2 inhibitor in our body⦠and by taking it again⦠you are realigning the proper balance that was left damaged⦠hard to say what will happen when you get off though, thereās so many random theories iāve read⦠but this is really, really interesting at looking at the mechanisms taking place⦠in fact, it doesnāt really explain other theories at all like those involving digestion⦠this is mind boggling⦠i wonder what type of scientist or professional would be able to understand this type of dataā¦
Could it be that the avodart is blocking any remaining DHT in your body from attacking your hair follicles or what else it does, thus putting it into your system, thus the result you are feeling is an increased DHT being diverted to other regions in your body like your penis and bloodstream. This is why many members on this site and including myself had an increase in their sex drive, erections, and overall sexual performance just prior to crashing while on fin. I hate to say this but what is happening to you, is the same old. You are elevating your own natural DHT in your body and soon your body will compensate by shutting down when it detects your elevated DHT levels. Or boost its estrogen or cortisol output to compensate for the increased DHT / test. I really, really, really hope I am wrong and you are on your way to a recovery and not just another crash to soon follow.
Just a side note; before crashing on fin, my last 6 to 12 months I started to notice my hair was filling in, I was actually regrowing hair. Previous to that the first 2 to 3 years on fin I thought it really didnāt do anything maybe slowed down my hair from falling out. But it wasnāt into my last year on it that I was saying that fin really worked, the back of my head was completly filled in better than when I started 3 years ago. Then that last year my sexual performance was like I was in high school all over again. I had great hair and a hell of a libido and sexual prowess in all areas. Then the crash. Could it be that for some, your body takes a while to react to fin, it builds up. Because the first few years sexual I noticed no change but also no or any change in my hair falling out. It was the last year, after being on fin for 3 years when it seems the body could not tolerate it anymore and the build up was too much then everything get out of balanced. Likewise, for some it took less time and others more time for this to occur. Thus, by restarting DHT blocker all you are doing is setting yourself up for a crash again.
speculation here⦠but maybe you should try not masturbating AT ALL⦠since others have reported crashes happening post masturbation⦠maybe if you donāt masturbate for like a month straight, you will avoid the crash and you will go back to normal ānaturallyā post taking the 5AR2 inhibitor the way the lucky people do (unlike us who were screwed by merck)⦠?
Pleased for your progress but I canāt help thinking youāll be back to square one when you come off. I was mostly ok on fin, all the problems came on stopping.
I was exactly the same. It is a whole different ball game now that we are officially PFS sufferers though. If i had to put my money on it then i would say that this is going to happen, yes. All i can do is try it and see what happens.
DHT is intercellular hormon. it is created in the cells where needed, not like testosterone which circulates in the blood. you are wrong in your assumption.
I think itās safe to say that the sexual recovery at least, is over. However my sleep and mood still remain better than usual and my hunger is really ramped up.
I am glad that i tried this but i wonāt be taking my experiments with 5 AR inhibitors any further.
Yes, i did feel a brief period of almost full recovery. I can only speculate on why the Dutasteride lead me to feeling better rather than worse. As i have mentioned previously, it can raise testosterone levels and given my super oily skin and yellow head spots while using the drug, i suspect it did just that. I have read that DHT levels take weeks and can even take months to normalize after using Dutasteride so it will be interesting to see if the return of DHT causes any changes.
Once again i would like to make my reasons for this experiment very clear as i know that on paper it seems completely ridiculous and dangerous
The finasteride induced recovery i experienced in the summer. It was a remarkable recovery and so i couldnāt just let that go. I actually think that using finasteride has made my penis shrinkage much worse in the end but you just never know with PFS; my best natural recovery which occurred in the summer made me 10x worse once it ended.
The user Denarion (recovered using finasteride apparently) and of course the user az123 who actually paid $50 for the dutasteride for me to try as he believes that it has helped him
Dutasterideās ability to raise testosterone levels
Kennedyās disease and sufferers using Dutasteride
I donāt care if some of you do not agree with my reasoning. I was curious and happy to take the risk given that there are men on this forum that have lived like monks and feel just as bad/ worse after 5+ years off the drug. If my use of dutasteride causes problems in the future then i will just have to pay the price.
When my sex drive was healthy, my skin was oily and i woke up with an erection i really thought i might have cracked this. Sorry to disappoint you guys.
āFrom what we have found in the first round of experiments, it is very pretty clear why substances that REDUCE AR activation can (initially) improve symptoms. The question is for HOW LONG, and if taking such substances can even make you worse in the long term. Wasnāt there some guy that claimed to have felt better after taking finasteride? Or the chap in this thread that is feeling great on Avodart? Itās basically the same story.ā

I am still curious about what Awor found in the experiments?
