Hi, as you can see I´m a new member on this forum and I hope I can get some advice on what to do after experiencing Propecia- side effects.
I´m 21 years old and 4 days ago I took my first ( and last!) Propecia pill (1 mg). Not even 12 hours later I felt a strong burning sensation in my chest, especially the nipples. Also, i immediately noticed the first signs of ED and the next morning I woke up without my usual “morning wood”. Now, i know it´s only been 3-4 days since i stopped taking the drug, but I´m still not able to get a spontaneus/morning erection without touching and even then I feel it´s not hard enough and it goes away pretty fast. I´ve also noticed that I have to urinate very often. The only thing that´s gotten better over the past few days is the chest tenderness; I still kinda feel it, but it´s not that intense anymore. So, my question would be: are there any meds I should start taking or should I just wait a couple of days/weeks and see what happens? In your opinion, is it possible to have permanant ED problems after taking just 1 pill of Propecia that contains 1 mg of Finasteride? I would be very grateful for your opinion and advice.
I dont think it would hurt if you went on a multi, vit D3, vit C, vit E and a low dose of zinc while waiting it out. Any vits that support/regulate your hormones and endocrine system would be good.
Thanks for the response, guys. I wish I found this site before I took that damn drug, but I guess it´s too late for that now. Regarding those vitamins and zinc, are they proven to be helpful in this situation and more important, is it 100% safe to use them because the last thing I want to do right now is make things worse.
jux, any update?
