Were you hypersexual before finasteride?

Before i poisoned myself, I would definitely characterize myself as being a hypersexual individual with definitely an above average desire for sex. Just curious if this is a common theme among people who are at risk for adverse affects from 5ar inhibitors…

Yes, I was a sex freak and always horny, just like every young man

Absolutelly YES. I think even more than most of my friends. And it was even higher right after stoping finas, before the crash.

Maybe our AR were already more sensitive (our natural AR expression was higher than other guys). My dick for example was WAY above average, when I crashed my dick shrinked permanently and is now just Average size.

High sex drive for me too prior to this shit normal pecker size :slight_smile:

Kind of what I’m getting at. Seems like if you find the common denominator of what makes a person hypersexual you can narrow down the affected region. I’m too dumb and uneducated to know the answer.

This is very common it seems. The surge of androgens during withdrawal is surely the cause. I remember when I quit, orgasms felt absolutely insanely pleasurable, I was lifting more at the gym, all around felt much more masculine and sexual.

I thnk more then 90% of PSSDforum members who answered the same question, reported a hypersexual activity before PSSD, including myself.

I was not before Accutane. I would call myself “normal”. But i do remember i could get horny from just simple clothed pictures of girls on instagram etc. I wasn’t hypersexual.

Extremely high libido. Couldn’t read a book for more than an hour without urges to masturbate. Would bounce out of bed to masturbate and watch porn on weekend.

And thats why you guys took Fin. Because DHT makes your hair fall out. Of course Fin users were hypersexual because of DHT.

Yup. Probably true in at least a lot of cases.

One strange thing for me is thinking back I was actually still pretty high sex drive wise the year or so before all of this. I remember having PE issues because I was so ready to go. Not anymore, haha.

also extreme libido

Male pattern baldness is caused by genetic sensitivity of the hair follicles and not by high DHT per se. Although there might be a correlation between high androgens and hairloss.

Yes, he’s right

Yes, to the point that I ended a relationship because my ex had zero libido and I realized we weren’t compatible for that and other reasons.

I was more of the over sexual nice guy hypersexual behind closed doors

Kinda the same you dont think its reversible to get size back?

Some people have reported recovery of size, some people seem to think it’s permanent.

Most of us were young males when we took Finasteride. So it is not surprising that we were highly sexual. Comparisons with our peers are difficult, since we obviously know when we have sexual thoughts, feelings and urges, but cannot always tell those of others. So to us we may appear more sexual than others, although that is not necessarily true.

Personally, I think it is normal that young males on average are highly sexual.
