Day 2 and felt a random slight tingling around testicals but everything seems normal and penis still same size. Is the tingling normal?

Hey dude! Ya I started fin 2 months ago and at first i started with .5 mg and had a slight ache at first! Disappeared since then. After about half a month or so I upped it to 1mg and still no problemos! Just continue to live your life! But of course, be weary if u really notice something off the charts, which probably won't happen Peace!

The journal idea is great. Keep it up.

Finasteride has caused mine to grow. Is this normal?

Consider yourself very lucky.

I had the testicle tingles in the first three weeks as well. After about week 4 , that went and all felt well afterwards. Not a single odd feeling or side effect years later.

I strongly recommend keeping a log with photographs at baseline and at every milestone during the continuing treatment. I would get some photos taken ASAP for a baseline, just in case finasteride causes a temporary shed (which is known to happen).

I dont know, I wouldnt touch the stuff if my hair depended on it.

CB looks promising though, just hope the vehicle is the right one.

I understand the fear of fin sides and all, but at this point and time options are very limited. If I had a choice of hair loss prevention treatments and one didn't have the potential of sides, then the choice would be a no brainer. Unfortunately that is not the case and if you want to keep your hair the most effective treatment is fin.

What's up guys it has been about 6 months, I've been doing .5 mg daily and my hair has really gotten thicker and no side effects! As of lately tho I feel like I've been shedding more than usual,my right temple is still rather shaky I have two questions should I make it 1mg daily and is the shedding bad or good? Appreciate any answers !

[Notcoolanymore]

The recommended dose is 1mg, so I would work my way up to that dose. You are having success at .5mg, so if you are worried about sides just keep your dose where it is at. Like they say "if it aint broke...."

Thanks for the reply, so you think I should go ahead and start with 1mg daily starting now?

If you are getting results with the amount you are taking and not having sides, I would not change anything. Stick to what is working. If you ever start to lose ground then up your dose.
