I have now been taking propecia (1mg) for five weeks.
A few days after starting to take it, I suddenly developed some painful acne on my face. Luckily, this cleared up completely in less than a week.
At around the same time, my testicles became very tender, especially my left testicle. This extreme sensitivity subsided and eventually disappeared after around two weeks, and I felt pleased that the side effects seemed to have cleared up.
However, from around four weeks of propecia onwards, the testicular pain has returned, although it is more of a dull pain and less sharp than before. The pain is still in the left testicle, and often extends into the left side of my abdomen. Although I can put up with it, it is quite uncomfortable.
Has anyone else had these side effects? Do they clear up given more time?
I'd really appreciate any advice as I don't know whether to quit propecia or to persevere in the hope that these problems will clear up as they did before.
Thanks for any help on this.
