I have a few dilemmas and questions about this.

I've been on Propecia for 1.5 months. Since I started I've developed mild to moderate acne on my face and the already few pimples on my chest and back have multiplied.

Ontop of that, the fine fine hairs on my back and upper arms are now becoming thicker as well as the neck.

Shouldn't this damn drug be clearing the acne, and reducing body hair? Not the opposite?

ALSO.. I have receded M shape hairline, and the Propecia seems to be spurting tiny tiny vellus hairs all under the hairline and the temples. Whats the chances of these hairs becoming thicker then terminal?

It takes propecia about 3 months to start working. You are acting like since the day you ate your first pill its making your bodyhair grow like crazy. Bodyhair grows at a very slow rate, and propecia doesn't make hair grow faster. Its all in your head.

Chances of temple growth on propecia are slim to none. You need to add minoxidil to the mix.

Yea it's definately easy to let your mind play tricks, I've also started getting acne on my forehead and chest, I've read that this is normal and a sign of hormones changing, basically.. think of it as a good thing.
