Ok seriously need help. The finasteride that ive been on for the last 7 months is definitely giving me spots. I take 1mg a day and i have ruled out other things like diet etc.
My plan is too reduce my finasteride dose. I plan to reduce the finasteride too 0.6mg. Its going to be hard because you are just guestimating. Could i do this for six days of the week and then on the seventh take 1mg. To make sure im getting the dosage.

Any other ideas, please help.

Im also tried every acne wash possible and im on acne drugs.

Im 23 so maybe it'll pass. Just need advice!!

Ive been getting terrible acne on my face, shoulders and chest since starting finasteride 3 months ago. I use a good quality body scrub twice a week and a toner everyday. This has helped a lot but not completely stopped the problem. It kind of got a bit better on its own after a while.

I remember getting this Tetanus shot in my arm a few years back. I had read that such a shot can affect your strength where it was administered, and sure enough, I noticed a few months later that my strength in that arm had significantly diminished compared to my other arm. On my next visit to the doctor, I told her about it, and that's when I found out the shot had been given in the other arm.

It's easy to play correlation equals causation, but more than likely it's either in your head or it's caused by something else. Not true in all cases, but more than not.
