I have been on Propecia for probably about 8 years now and I have never has a problem with Labido, getting hard and staying hard. I have noticed over the last six months my labido is starting to slow down and I can get hard with no issues but staying hard is the problem. I am now 34 and was wondering if this is a sign of aging or do you think it is the Propecia finally starting to effect my labido?? I found this string here and found it very helpful:

I am going to go with the recomendation of Yohimbe, Horny Goat Weed, Arginine and see if that helps my situation. Can you grow immune to this though. In other words once you start using these supplements will you need them forever to get hard??? Any advice thoughts are greatly appreciated!!!

Unless you're taking it every day, you shouldn't build up a tolerance to it. The only time I'd take any of the stuff I listed was an hour or so before I was going to have sex.

Give it a try and see how you like it. You may find that not being able to stay hard during sex is just a strange occurance and could go away on it's own.

If it really bothers you...Or gets worse, you may want to get your hormone levels checked.

FWIW - I don't take any of that stuff anymore since I've started taking Selegiline & Anastrozole.

What is Selegiline & Anastrozole?? and what does FWIW stand for??

So, is it worth my trouble to try this stuff. Did you like it while you were using it and when you say right before sex...do you take everything right before sex? Sorry for all the questions.. I really appreciate this!!

I ordered it all but haven't opened it, I may return it still, I am just debating what I want to do.

Yes I did... Very much so actually. There is no doubt in my mind that I would be bald right now if not for Propecia.... As I've posted in the past though, the effectiveness seems to be wearing off. It doesn't seem to work as well as it used to..

Selegiline lowers prolactin levels among other things. Anastrozole is an AI.

FWIW = For what it's worth

Yes, when I took Maca/Arginine etc, I took about 30 min - 1 hour before sex. Personally, I liked Maca Root & Arginine the best. But everyone has their favs.

You couldn't have spent more than $20 on the supps, so why not see if you like them?

After 8 years, it may be time to switch to dutasteride. Or to up your finasteride dosage.

I got Yohimbe Fuel and Pro Lab Horny Goat weed, I may have gotten some of the more expensive stuff so it was about $35 for everything including Argentine, but I will try them all - why not?

As for the dutasteride, I am not ready for that yet.. or ever for that matter. I may try the zix ( I think it's called) maybe time to try some topicals. Thanks for all the help and advice!!!
