Guys, I am really in between a rock and a hard place.

I have been on propecia for about six years. It has worked WONDERFULLY for me. I have regained most if not all of my hair and I consider the results to be nothing less than amazing. However, my libido has declined significantly. I took a six month break from propecia and noticed that as soon as I started to loose the hair my sex drive come back. During this time I tried Rogaine foam but it did not maintain the hair that I had grown and I could tell I was loosing it. Now, I am currently attempting to cut the dose by splitting pills, but I am not very optimistic. I

Is there ANY procedure or product that will allow me to just retain what I have without having to take Propecia ?

Thanks to all who answer.

short answer really is not stay with your propecia but get your test levels up. lift heavy and take supplements high in l arginine and nitric oxide like no xplode , low libido is most of the time a low test problem, your test levels over the years prob droped since starting do to age so once they get back up a bit your good to go.

In my opinion High Test is not the best thing for those suffering from male pattern baldness.

Phish,

It's nice to see a fellow body builder on these forums. Stop paying a premium to BSN and get bulk CEE and arginine :) I don't know if you have noticed this or not , but on the days when I get an intense workout in with lots of heavy lifting I tend to shed significantly more hair. I had a knee injury last year from squatting too much and didn't workout for 2 months, surprisingly shedding really decreased. So I think there is a Test connection somewhere....

hey viper nice, yea i always thought higher test levels = more dht but bryan the smartest man on this earth in terms of male pattern baldness says a different story, ive read countless posts where he said double test does not =double dht, especially on a dht blocker such as finasteride. it would be cool if he chimed in here and made us felt more at ease, i always thought it would make sense if your test doubled so would your dht. i doubt any1 can double their test levels anyway in the first place from liftin and a suplemt unless their on steroids of course, but lifting heavy plus a good suplement should raise their test 10-15 percent which should be all that is needed to raise the libido that lil extra to get u going. i wish i could find where bryan posted about double your test levels and only slight increase if any in dht while on finasteride since finasteride blocks 90 percent of type 2 dht wich is the most important dht .
