yea its i used it for a week then stopped for a week then got back on yesterday to see if i would feel diff when im off of it.May have lowered my libido a little but i wanted to try again because im not tryna lose my hair im only 18.I might crush my finasteride and mix it with minoxidil bc i heard some people that took oral and got sides stopped getting sides on topical even though it still goes systemic who knows.I honestly dont think it will ruin my life or anything like people talk about.I just feel like it lowered my libido a bit but i mostly feel the same.Maybe wont get boners during funerals now Lmao.I used finasteride for a year. For 5 months I was using 0.25 and had no sides. I increased to 0.50 and within a week started a massive shed that did not stop. This is also when I first experienced sexual sides. At first my libido went crazy high. In fact it was so much of a nuisance I reduced back to 0.25. Eventually my libido lowered but I wasn’t really interested in sex anymore, it was strange. I also had no morning wood, couldn’t masturbate, went soft on woman. It was a nightmare. That went on for 6 months plus the shed so I quit. Wonderful drug.
It took a over year to fully recover, but I did.
