I started finasteride at 18 for 3 months. Dropped it when I got a gf. Fast forward 3 years at 21 I started finasteride the beginning of my senior year at college and lasted for 4.5 months.
Basically during that time my new gf at the time noticed severe psychological changes. I had major mood swings throughout the day and in very happy situations (at a party watching 2 girls kiss, after scoring a goal in soccer, after orgasm from sex) I would seem very indifferent/depressed.
Even though she said hair was important to her she suggested I get off finasteride.
I feel so much better. I am only 3 days off and I feel so much better. No more unexplained tears. No more stuttering during tests.
To me the sexual sides I could deal with, it's the brain fog sides that I couldn't handle.
They are so real, and I think everyone taking finasteride is in denial about them. To them the sides are tolerable so they just deny that they even exist.
