So my experience with finasteride is as follows: On for 3 weeks, stopped because of tingling/sensitive nipples and fear of gyno. Got bloods done a few weeks after stopping to establish a baseline.

Hi, I have been on Propecia for 1 year, and decided for a couple of months ago to quit due to sexual sides (low/no sexual desire hence difficulties completing a sexual act). Thus, in order to figure out 'what wrong' with me, I good some blood test done, and I've just got the results, refer to...

So it's been more than a year I've been on 0.5mg dutasteride and it hasn't done much for my hair. I've been thinking of taking a blood test to check my DHT levels. I'd like to know what I need to get my DHT levels checked at a lab. Do I need a doctor's prescription or can I just go to the lab directly...

Hi. I have never done anything like this before but I need all the guidance i can get. My almost three year old daughter is losing her hair. It started back in February I took her to her pediatrician and she referred me to a dermatologist and sent me for some blood work. The dermatologist sent...
