Thank you for your time to read my story.
The timeline:
1. 2010/07/01 - Start finasteride (1mg daily) and minoxidil (twice daily)
2. 2011/03/20 - Add topical spironolactone 5% in my regimen, apply twice (15 minutes after minoxidil)
3. 2011/06/05 - Add Tricomin in my regimen, apply twice (15 minutes before minoxidil)
4. 2011/06/18 - Got a crash- I got many side effects from that day suddenly and literally. Quiting finasteride.
Side effects:
1). Loss of morning erections, very low libido and difficult to erectile
2). Loss of genital sensitivity
3). Reduced Ejaculate
4). Persistent chronic fatigue
5). Loss of Motivation
6). Stool is dry and hard, like sheep's stool
7). Muscle wasting/Weight loss - I start loss weight from Feb, and found I have lost 10kg at June.
I quit finasteride from 2011/06/18, and continue the others in my regimen(minoxidil, Topical spironolactone 5% and Tricomin), also, I starts take MACA and L-arginine at 2011/06/25, but now it seems my side effects do not wear off.
Currently I am suspecting whether my side effects are really from finasteride or not??? Is it possible these side effects caused by minoxidil/Topical spironolactone/Tricomin?
is it possible this case? I spray Tricomin first and get my scalp wet and apply the minoxidil, and the wet scalp increases minoxidil's absorption, then the minoxidil cause my side effects. Is it possible?
My questions:
How to confirm where my side effects from?
How to find the real cutthroat?
Thanks!
