Dear all,
I had used proscar for about a year plus rogaine..i stopped proscar in jan 05 but continued using Rogaine. The reason why i stoped proscar is because i took a sperm test and found out that the sperm effectivity is way down 5% instead of the normal 20%. The reason for that the doctors said might not be proscar. So i took an ultra sound test on my testicals and found that the left oune is abnormal somehow and I required a surgery . Otherwise I will not be able to have any children.
Anyways I got worried on that so I stopped taking proscar knowing that might not be the reason for why my sperm strength is too low. Howveer, It has been almost 10 months and Iam only using rogaine. Offcourse I lost some hair but it was thicker when I used to take proscar together with rogaine.
I went to the doctor last nite and asked him to take proscar again cause i feel my hair got thinner. He asked me to take the sperm test again to check if that was the reason for the bad sprem test result. I took it and found that the sperm strength went up from 5% to 15%. It still didnt reach the 20%. The doctor allowed me to take proscar again for another 6 months and I will take the sperm test again to check.
I have two questions:-
1. Do you think proscar is the reason for the sperm strength to be low?
2. How long will it take for my me to get the lost hair back (since I stopped taking the pills 10 months ago?
