Conclusion
Its been along time since I posted here. Around 8 month I believe. I've come back to tell everyone how things are going and to cut it short things aint good. I've been off finasteride for several months after experiencing some nasty sides that I noted in my previous post back in June. As of now things are better but not 100% I'm still having sexual dysfunction I say sexual dysfunction because its more then just my penis that's not fully working. In the past 8 months I've been very ill and visited the doctor many times. I've been told my liver function is poor and I'm scheduled for a biopsy soon. Aside from that IL tell you how I've been since stopping finasteride. Back in June my libido was rock bottom I couldn't get or maintain an erection. I felt like a walking zombie. Fast forward to now and things are just the same. Weak erection, Low libido, No penis sensation, Low ejaculate volume, Low ejaculate power. I've had every blood test out there. Testosterone, dht, estrogens, cortisol, thyroid, vitamin & mineral deficiencies. Everything coming back normal. Personally I believe the finasteride has messed with the signals between my brain and my penis. My mind often wonders while trying to have sex. p**rn doesn't even excite me. I feel as though I could go forever without sex and wouldn't be bothered. I also think the finasteride has somehow irritated my prostate. I have very healthy sperm but low ejaculate fluid. I've had no test on my prostate so I'm not sure for certain. I'm not here to put anyone off using finasteride I'm sure its different for every man. But one thing is for sure if I could go back now know what this has done to me I would never have even considered finasteride. To everyone that's thinking about this drug please think about it because the side effects are very real. Good luck all. Regards, Ryan.
