Hi need some advice

I am 47 yrs old started losing hair late thirties. I started using Hair A Gain Contains 5% Minoxidil for the last 2 years made a difference at first, then 6 months ago i started using saw palmetto in a pill form.

I have had regrowth which has been great.

1 month ago I started on 1mg propecia daily had new growth straight away fantastic results.
Had limited side effects in the first 3 weeks now week 4 difficult to get an erection, no sexual desire looked at p**rn on the net I could only get a slight erection. I tried to mastubate my penis would not get hard, ifeel that i can not control my penis, before i could acheive an erection on command.

I have told my wife Iam stressed at work thats why there's no desire for sex.

Do I get off propecia or cut the dose down by half

Help some one need advise badly

Hey although I had only a slight decrease in libido this is from hairlosssucks.com and it is what I followed but to a very small degree but noticeable. I saw this timeline AFTER this so I know it was not in my head. I would stick it out for another month at least

Expected Timeline

What should you expect upon taking that first pill? Below is an example of a *worst case* scenario. As stated above most men never experience any of these side effects. Here's the good and the bad, in a nice convenient timeline:

*

Week 1-2: Possible increased sex drive, slightly oily skin, possible light zits, increased shedding (normal!)
*

Week 3-5: 4% of men may experience a slight decrease in sex drive
*

Week 6-?: Side effects dissipate, possible continued shedding until month 3 or 4

This is of course assuming you experience any in the first place. It is entirely dependant upon the person.

*

Month 3 or 4: Good Responders - You may see a stoppage in shedding
Slow Responders - Give it 6 months to a year.
*

Month 6 or 8: Good Responders - You may see additional regrowth.
Slow Responders - may take up to a year or may not see regrowth at all, just maintenance of hair count.

Don't let it go to your head. But if you gotta get off the drug I suggest you take a good at all the 20 year olds over NW3+, I bet you'll feel better after.
