    Fatigue from Proscar?

    I have been taking 1mg Proscar every day for 2 months now. Recently, I have been feeling very fatigued. Usually I will only feel fresh for a few hours after waking up before needing to take a nap. Could this be as a result of taking Proscar or something else, such as my diet?

    I remember when I first started taking it noting that I felt a bit tired directly after taking it, but since I used it just before going to bed, it wasn't an issue. I felt fine throughout the day otherwise.

      You have been taking Proscar for 2 months: every negative change to your health since then is due to the use of Proscar. Actually every negative change to your life is due to Proscar.


      On the serious note. Could it be due to proscar, sure, but poor diet can have a big impact on fatigue. I know when I eat crap, I feel way different then if I eat good quality food. Have you been getting enough sleep?

        I could switch from taking the 1mg just after I wake up to just before I fall asleep. I presume that delaying tomorrow's dosage by 12 hours until I am ready to sleep won't have any noticable effect on my hair?

            I really don't think that would be an issue, it should still be in your system.

              Even after 36 hours without taking any?

                I am in no way an authority on the subject, but I know that some people take the pill only a few times a week, so I imagine it stays in your system for a fairly long time.
