I don’t think so SP - have you heard about many heart side effects?
Plus, if finasteride affected DHT everywhere and other organs we could be seeing far more people with persistent side effects.
Do you think everybody who used 5ARi in this world is on thie forum?
just got a pm from monty
he tried to take fina again
he is not recovered
is back to beginning
I have been speaking to him. He was never cured anyway, the guy is all over the place.
I don’t suppose any other hopeless soul has got the balls to try this? i really would be interested to see if others reacted the same way i did.
Blase was telling me a French guy got better using Saw Palmetto. There is also the dude i have talked to privately who used Dutasteride to get better!
it’s pretty interesting that this happened to you… however, I think it’s pretty risky to retry taking this drug. The thing that is most concerning to me that makes it a risk is that it’s impossible for anyone to know exactly at what “crash stage” you were at when you saw a positive effect from it. For example, some people only have sex drive issues, other have penile changes, other lifestyle factors that can play a part in where you are at crash wise, all of these factors I would imagine have an effect as to how someone would react to retaking fin.
And since there’s no single scientific factor where we can tell where we are at, since so many systems are effected, we would just be going off what you said… which is basically impossible to interpret to ourselves unless we went over every system, which at this point we are not 100% sure of.
just out of curiosity, do you remember what type of crash stage you were at right before you took it? like maybe how you were for a few days before leading up to it?
Bryce, you hit this one on the mark. These are anecdotal reports from one user recommending 3 different substances known to be harmful and, in fact, the reason most of us are in this mess. Following bluecloud’s wishes we would just be going off what he said which is incredibly worrisome because in another posts he admits:

Furthermore, there are many reports on this forum of men starting and stopping finasteride, having their sides resolve, and then repeating the process only to have side effects become persistent.
No shit guys.
It presents a risk?
Really?
NO SHIT
I am on 6 capsules of dutasteride daily at the moment and feeling fantastic. Will update soon.
Jesus, man.
I really worry for you (genuinely). I really hope the dut doesnt mess you up.
I personally think its a crazy risk.
Keep us updated, anyhow.
You are out of your f&*king mind.
Yeah seriously man… 6 capsules of duasteride PER DAY? i read something from a chinese doctor that he believes propecia deacivates 5AR2 in the liver… the more you use it… the more damage you could be doing to your 5AR2 receptors… you want them to turn back on again, not keep pushing them to turn off, get the hell off and at least give a try to extreme diet before you take this measure man for the love of god
I think he was joking, to get a rise out of people. At least I hope he’s joking.
No, I don’t think he was… I talked to him over PM about 2 weeks ago and he told me he was going to try it
I have the same feeling judging by the PMs.
Who cares let him go, hes a sandwhich short…
I agree with you 
You really could have some fun with this functionality
This is going really well… I can’t tell you how great it feels to sleep through the night and then wake up the next day actually feeling like a normal human being. My mood is up and stable, i feel motivated and i am starting conversations all the time. I woke up with a proper morning erection today also, you know the ones where you have to push your penis down to urinate? wow, it’s been a long time since i have had to do that.
I will give a final update in a month or two because that is when things should get good, apparently. It could all go very wrong so i am not going to jump the gun
Stop pulling our leg, please.
I was pulling your leg when i said 6 but i genuinely am taking 2 capsules per day. I swear to god.
I went ahead and tried it because the guy who got better using this method actually paid 80$ out of his own pocket to get me brand name avodart. I figured it must be worth a try if he is willing to do that.
Does my reaction tell us anything? maybe we can assume that low DHT or 5AR is not an issue for us as i am currently suppressing both very heavily. Rather than get bitter and moan about this, maybe we should all try and take what we can from it. If there is anything?
You guys need to understand that if something helped or cured someone, then i am prepared to try it myself no matter what the risks. I have already stated that if i had the resources then i would visit Goldstein or Crisler and a naturopath like Emerson, however i don’t have the resources, so instead i am trying what seems to have worked for others going by anecdotal evidence on the internet. Dutasteride happens to be one of the things that has worked for someone, whether you like it or not.
I am not actually expecting this to work but at least i am giving it a go…
