If you used for under 1 month, post below. Just trying to see who’s in the same boat as me.
I took propecia for 7 days.
~10 days
2 weeks. Big crash, some fluctuating improvements since, but feel new symptoms are emerging with time. For example, brain fog, depression and anxiety have diminished (not gone) and digestion has improved. Still have penis pain/shrinkage, prostate pain muscle weakness and aches. I also have joint pain.
It has been a big relief to me that some of the psychological symptoms have improved, as this was very difficult at the start. Any body who has just crashed, it is important to know that things do get better.
Interestingly, the DHT scalp itch seems to have returned, which I am trying to take as an encouraging sign, although I don’t want to get too optimistic.
I am now at the 2.5 month since crash mark.
I first started proscar that I bought off the web…after 2 weeks I got Dizzy and had nausa, I stopped and I was Dizzy for 2 Days straight then it Went away…thankfully…then out of desperation I bought finasteride 1mg “proscalpin” from the web… took it for 1 month and the “only” side effect I got exactly after 30 Days was “severely dry Eyes” Eye drops didnt even work…I stopped the pills immidiately and my Eyes were BONE DRY 100% dry for 4 Days… on the forth day my Eyes were back to normal… I never had a crash after stopping strangly…because I had a big crash 4 years ago after stopping “saw palmetto” never took it long either on and off for 4 months…even today im not fully recovered from that big crash…but im happy as it is.
I, too, am looking for some advice and feedback. I took 1mg (ONE PILL) one month ago and immediately felt the side effects of dropped libido and ED. I stopped the drug right away and my doctor agreed that the Finasteride wasn’t for me, as my body responding very negatively. I followed a very similar pattern of most users where after 2 weeks, I felt 100%. No ED, increased libido (at pre-fist rates) and just carrying on with my normal life. Last night, I felt the crash. I felt like my body got shocked or something was completely taken out of me. Immediate drop in libido, ED (almost like no attachment feeling) and severe anxiety. I woke up this morning with a little anxiety, ED, and no libido…similar to how I did the first week off the drug. Am I screwed here with full blown PFS or is it possible my body will set itself straight like the first two weeks? I need advice. There’s no much feedback on this site that some can be misleading so I’m looking to talk to users who experienced a similar effect. One pill…go figure.
