Scalp Sweating

Symptoms Physical
#1

Been off Propecia almost a month.

Since starting Pro i noticed my scalp began sweating more and more and now if i do any activity such as working out my scalp sweats like crazy,

Usually from the temporal regions and the back of my head
New hair began to regrow in these places

sometimes i dont even do much and im all wet in that region (that sounds bad)

Anyone else experience this?

I am trying to isolate the problem
Is this due to Propecia opening up sweat glands and regrowing hair?

i tried researching but came up with nothing

Thanks

Likely a form of “reflex hyperandrogenicity”, where your hormones (particularly androgens, after being blocked) swing back the other way to extremely high levels.

A few guys on various hairloss sites have complained about sweating/oily scalps/acne while on, and after quitting Fin. Here is one post about it on this site: propeciahelp.com/forum/viewt … ght=reflex

Also read these threads:

“Reflex hyperandrogenicity not only involves an increase in testosterone
levels, but an increase in androgen sensitivity. E.g., a gross increase in local androgen receptors is reported with finasteride. This causes the tissue to become more sensitive to other androgens besides DHT itself.”
