Okay so I was taking finasteride for around 1.5-2 years and was getting sides, I was able to get an erection but it wasn't as hard as it used to be. I stopped taking finasteride around 4-5 months ago and it didn't really make a difference until this week, my erection is even worse than it was while I was on finasteride. Has this happened to anyone and can anyone suggest anything to me? All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So, you quit 4 months ago and have only been having issues in the last week? Are you experiencing any additional sides? How are your morning erections?

Yes, give or take. I don't think I've been getting morning wood lately, also no other sides.
Were you getting morning wood before this week? You should get your hormones checked. Personally I think it's just stress but you might as well double check
What tests do I need to get?

I can't really say for sure but definitely free and serum testosterone, DHT and estrogen. 5 alpha reductase, serotinin and dopamine might also be useful.
