got my third Blood test results - T levels

[swingline747]

So when my sides hit me I ran to the doctor and got blood work to check my T levels.
I was at like 350 which my Doctor said was in the normal range. I knew it was not right for me BUT I never checked them before finasteride. One of my hair transplant consults told me "no way" that is WAY low for you.
As sides started to subside I went and got another one and it was at like 450.
I went to my docs yesterday and told him I want to get another. Been almost like 7 months off. I asked him my number to my last one which was after the 450 but I never got the numbers for it. 580!

You tell me this stuff doesnt mess with your body. 350 TO 580 in a few months and I dont doubt since a couple months passes since it will be even higher with this last one.

Watch this stuff, MAKE SURE you get tested before you start and monitor it from there on.

That is good news. I know you were thinking about a 4th run at it. I would encourage you to stay off now. I hope you are feeling better.

Yeah I cant do it. I say I honestly believe its like sending your body into a steroid high to crash.
You start taking it and feel GREAT until your t shuts down. Im just glad I didnt get man boobs.
thanks

finasteride doesn't lower your T levels. You weren't very clear with your story. You stopped finasteride and T went up? You continued finasteride and after a while it went up?

Sorry I have posted around and my links in my sig say the whole story BUT what it appears is

Started finasteride
I felt like I was in my twenties. My member was like on roids. Always looked like its was at a semi. Thicker and hung lower. My energy level was better, my moods were great. It was seriously the way people talk about getting Tbooster shots in their later ages.
Then after 8 months BAM. Almost over night everything changed. MY sides were crazy. They were mental, sexual and physical.
I ran to get blood work. MY t Levels were very low. Now after stopping finasteride for like 8 months, they are continuously raising.
To me for "some" people I think finasteride raises T levels for a bit, but eventually your body crashes as if you are over pumping steroids.
Believe me or not but 3 times on and off and I got the same sides.

fourth blood work done

580 to 586

not a huge jump almost not worth mentioning but shows its still rising or at least leveling out since stopping finasteride.

My guys still dont drop like they used to. Not to be to graphic, but I am hoping that too will return to normal.
