| 5 | Hair loss | Started taking 1/4 of a tablet every other day after 2 months switched to 1/2 tablet everyday then full tablet daily. Been taking for 15 months great results and no side effects hair is clearly thicker in fact the results are quite incredible. I have gained my confidence back after loosing significant amounts of hair over an 18 month period. People now say what great hair I have for a 30 year old 😊 I mulled over taking propecia due to all the negative reviews but then I though how many people who have success can be bothered coming back and writing about their success story which is why have. I spent months trying to find good reviews only to find hundreds of bass ones. Taking Propecia was the best decision I ever made all my mates are bald and I have a full head of hair | M | 29 | 1 years 5 | 6/4/2014 | 1 | Stop hairloss | Constant but minor testicular pain, penis is limp, has shrunk, softer erections and takes longer to be aroused. Only 3 weeks into taking this and already I am terrified. Losing your sex life at 21 is no life worth living. Going to talk to doctor for ANY other alternative to prevent hair loss and committ. | This site is full of men who are saying this drug ruined their lives. I am going to back out now before it happens to me. | M | 21 | 3 weeks 1.25 1X day | 5/11/2014 | 1 | Hair fall | I hv taken this med for just one month and i am experiencing problem in erection now its been 4 weeks i have stopped taking fin i think i am getting my erection little back and i am taking homopathic treatment for that. Wish these go away as early as possible | M | 23 | 4 weeks 1xD | 4/25/2014 | 5 | Hair Loss | Nothing adverse. Hair regrowth, a better image of myself, it gave me back a smile on my face. No erection problems, no fertilitty problem. | Loosing my hair was a nightmare. This drug saved me and I would never want to stop it. | M | 39 | 13 years 1 MG 1X day | 4/22/2014 | 1 | hair loss | extremely tired and weak, dizziness, dry eyes, no interest in women (very odd), depression, breast enlargement, very moody. | took me six months to recover. congrats, if it works for you. I cannot recommend it, however. | M | 36 | 3 months 0,5 mg 1X day | 4/17/2014 | 1 | Hair Loss | The very same day I began taking the medicine, I started experiencing side effects in my testicles. It was an aching sort of pain, one that you don't really feel when you are walking about and doing every day stuff. They were the first warning signs. I had to start skipping a day or two between daily dosages because the pain started to increase and so I began looking for similar experiences online and heard that it subsided after two weeks or so. Around 12-14 days of taking Propecia, I started to notice that I wasn't getting morning wood any more, I wasn't getting any solid erections, and even those erections would produce a dribble of semen. The alarm bells were ringing. I feared that I was one of those very unlucky ones who react badly to the drug and end up with long term damage. After 17 days of the drug and my anxiety of having permanent damage at the age of 22 years old. I decided to stop taking the drug. Twelve days passed since I stopped the drug and none of my symptoms | It is a very tiny pill, but it is a massively powerful drug. I was one of the lucky ones who managed to escape taking this drug without any long lasting side effects, but that is probably due to the short time I was taking the drug. I spoke with my GP (Doctor) during the days after stopping the pill, and he told me that there is a reason why doctors do not prescribe this drug for hair loss, and why it is sold my businesses. They cash in on peoples' fears. Be very careful guys who are thinking of taking this drug. There are undoubtedly those who managed to use this drug in the long term with very successful results. But be warned, this mistake could cost you your sex life for the rest of your days, especially if you're young. | M | 22 | 17 days 1 mg 1X day | 3/30/2014 | 1 | Hair Loss | Insomnia, shrinkage and numbness in genitalia, cognitive impairment, memory loss, dry skin, body chills, slower metabolism, fat in chest, stomach and hips, floppy forearms, reduced strength and stamina, severe depression | This is poison, stay well clear, without exaggeration, A rapist would face a lot more suffering and anguish than serving time in prison. Like many of the guys on here, it destroyed my life and that isn't being melodramatic. Lost my job, family and university education due to this shit. Going through this hell isn't worth all the hair in the world | M | 24 | 2 years 1mg 1X day | 3/18/2014 | 5 | hair loss | not bad! my hairs are growing back n i havent seen any other changes in my body yet! | M | 25 | 4 months 5 | 3/12/2014 | 3 | 1X day | 3/11/2014 | 1 | Was | Please don't even think about take this! I took it for a year, now my erection is gone!!!! I'm have been trying to clean up my system since I stopped taking this poisons 8 months ago, and no changes at all!!!! Please, if someone get any solution, let me know, thanks. | M | 39 | 1 years | 3/1/2014 | 1 | Hair Loss | Fat all over upper body, no connection between my brain and my penis, depression like I've never known, feel so empty, random erections, half-erections, zero interest in sex/masturbation, i am officially at rock bottom in my life. my face looks different, i used to have fat there, it's all been stripped away, this thing has aged me so much. | I'm crying as I type this. I'm just so depressed. I think back to anything in my life before this nightmare started and I cry. I think of the future and I cry at its emptiness, its bleakness. In a really dark place. | M | 34 | 2 years 1 MG 1X day | 1/22/2014 | 1 | Hair loss | At first I felt good and my baldness had go away, after 2 years of propecia I experienced heavy anxiety, memory loss, weakness and depression. I have stopped taking this drug for 3 months and I feel better now. (I had to quit drinking coffee and smoking because of severe anxiety) | M | 30 | 2 years 5 | 1/21/2014 | 5 | Hair loss | None | Around 25-26 I started using Propecia due to concerns over my receding hairline. I have had no side effects and my hairline has stopped receding. It's a shame that people are trying to ruin this drug with baseless lawsuits. The likely reality for these people is that they lost their hair, lost their confidence and then experienced depression, anxiety, loss of libido and other things as a result. These things happen naturally to many people as they age and now these people are just looking for someone to blame. It's absurd. If you are experiencing hair loss, I believe Propecia is completely safe. Don't listen to the fabricated hysteria. | M | 32 | 6 years 1 mg 1X day | 1/16/2014 | 5 | baldness | Increased ejaculation and sensitivity, increased chest size, and weight but not around waist. Neg affect is ringing in ears in the morning. | It is growing hair and I feel great. | M | 47 | 2 months 1 mg 1X day | 12/28/2013 | 1 | Hairloss | Anxiety, depression, derealization, brainfog, fatigue, inability to work or lead a normal life... all for the last 6 years since quitting! | This is a nightmare in pill form. I think it's only a matter of time before nearly everyone suffers from negative side effects. And once it hits you, you won't ever be returning to normal. So, for that reason... MoveOn dot org have a petition up to get Merck to fund studies into post-finasteride syndrome (which is what most people have). Please go there and sign it, PLEASE! | M | 40 | 9 years 1mg 1X day | 10/26/2013 | 3 | hair loss | I feel my testicles are smaller but cant be 100% sure. No sexual problems, libido is a-okay and if anything better that it calms down a bit. Semen is white, no particular odd smell, quantity is normal - so doesnt seem like any issues. Will get sperm test done to see how active they are etc. Want to have second child and will see if propecia must be stopped to achieve that. Hair re-growth seems to be taking place. Balding process was starting to get worse but full head of hair with temples sort of having moved back. Use to be into body building and then herniated my disc last year and had muscle atrophy. Feeling weaker last few months and feel smaller but to be fair havent really worked out for last year so will only know truth once I start again shortly. Do feel more tired then usual but that is when I do not get 8 hour sleep which I know I need to be fresh. Memory loss - not yet. Overall Id say Im going to continue and see where this goes. | M | 32 | 3 months 1 1X day | 9/13/2013 | 4 | Hair loss | This drug is fine for hair loss. It really helped my for years then I switched to the 5 Mg. version. My hair really came in thick at first, is a little thinner now but not too bad. My sex drive has reduced but I don't need a rocket penis. I would rather have hair than a high sex drive. I still have a sex drive but not as strong which in some ways is a Godsend! No more buzzing penis, thank God! There is no reason for all the negative ratings. Those people just have their brains in their pants. Pretty good medicine for the most part. | M | 50 | 8 years 1 Mg | 8/25/2013 | 1 | Hair Loss | Lost Libido, Anxiety, Major Depression, muscle loss, fatigue, anhedonia and more... | This drug ruined my life! Lost career, nearly divorced and haven't been able to work for 3 years. Nearly committed suicide. The pain, suffering and anguish is very difficult to describe or comprehend by anyone who hasn't gone through this. | M | 47 | 4 years 1mg 1X day | 6/26/2013 | 1 | hair loss | If anybody has recovered from the side effects of Propecia, PLEASE sign up at PropeciaHelp.com and post a message telling us all how you recovered | 1X day | 6/17/2013 | 2 | Hair loss | I took this for a short period 5 years ago. It made my scalp tingle and there was some hair improvement. It gave me headaches at full dose so I broke the pills into quarters. I quit taking it after slowly increasing sexual issues--lack of drive and reduced ejaculate-- that peaked when I failed to produce any ejaculate. I'd rather cum than have hair. | M | 44 | 3 months | 6/16/2013 |
