Hello everybody, I am very happy to make this post and say that I have recovered from the side effects of propecia. Here are the details of my story as follows:
I took propecia for only 8 days, and on the 7th day my penis went completely numb in that I could not even feel it. I was absolutely freaking out, however not enough since I ended up taking one more pill the following day before quitting the drug. I was amazed at how messed up my system was after just taking this drug for 8 days, and my symptoms are as follows:
- Numb penis
- Absolutely NO sex drive whatsoever (Not low, nothing at all)
- Weak erections
- Constant pain in testicular region
- Low energy levels
Needless to say, I was very scared and felt as if there was nothing I could do about it. My penis literally felt as if it was dead most of the time, and I had this awful pain in my testicles that was just terrible. It took approximately 7 weeks before these side effects subsided, and I felt like everything was working properly down there. The most positive signal for me, was there being no more testicular pain. Once that stopped, things went back online within a couple of days.
In any case, I just want to say that imagine it took nearly 2 months for me to go back to normal with just being the drug for 8 days, so don’t lose hope. I actually did not change my routine at all (Sleeping, eating etc.) to accomodate my side effects, the most important ingredient was time. Take care of your bodies, and remember that hair transplantation is the safest and most effective way (Although not cost effective) to treat your hair loss.
