10 months on Finasteride
Ive lost nearly all my hair line, except a bit in the middle, well receded, on one side more so than the other.
my crown is good tho,
im still waiting lol.
This last 10 years of my life has been a struggle, alot of mental illness and drugs, alcohol and prescribed medication.
Im now slowly developing some facultys i had failed to during adolescence.
im sure the sleep deprivation, malnutrition, drug and alcohol binges that would last 3-4 days at a time, and the stress inwhich this life has created, must have some thing to do with my hair loss.
Be.healthy people, exercise, laugh, love and feed your body and mind with things that ensure you are prepared
Peace.
Adam

Generic
cutting it into fiths is difficult if you don't have a pill cutter though. That's why I cut into 4ths.

That was the most important thing. I'm not very good at things not being in my control in terms of my body haha so just taking it made me feel better. I didn't really have much of a shed on 1mg a day but I recently moved up to 1.25mg a day (as I'm too lazy to cut into 5ths haha) and shedding did increase for a little but after a few weeks it's tamed.
If you were buying from an online pharmacy I would be a little worried that the generic I was buying might not be legit. As it's from a GP it should be complete legit finasteride - I would like to hope the NHS wasn't buying fake finasteride aha. It's all just finasteride at the end of the day so no worries

Thanks jay
Ive been on it 3days now, no sides yet, but i seem to be shedding alot, was prior to starting though.
When did you shedding start? How long did it go on for?
The product WILL be exactly the same?
I should stay out of these forums for a bit tbh, reading contradicting opinions daily isnt good.
Ill just have to see, i kinda feeling good that im actually doing something about it though
Thanks

Proscar is the branded version I think. No difference just the price
How long have you been on fin for? When I began taking it if anything I was more pumped in the gym and recovering faster. I 100% put this down to the increased free testosterone. I don't know if you got bloods done but mine showed decreased DHT and slightly elevated testosterone and everything else was pretty normal after a year on it. DHT has nothing to do with your muscles so it's no problem its decreased
Just try and relax. The biggest mistake you can do is worry like hell and mess yourself up over this. Just chill. If you have made the decision to take it just take it like you would a supplement. If you start getting side effects then come off it. Even if you just think it's mental come off because clearly it's causing to much stress for you.Leave a comment:

Whats the difference between 5mg proscar and 5mg generic finasteride?You can email Dr Steve Edgar who is a GP in the UK.
Many patients use Dr Edgar's service to obtain 5mg Proscar and 5mg generic including myself
Email him directly on : DrStevengedgar@gmail.com
He charges approx £200 for 5mg Proscar and £170 for generic 5mg finasteride for 14 months supply ( cut tab into 5ths) . I believe he charges £300 for 6 months Dutasteride however speak to him directly and confirm.
I hope this helps.

Surely there would be no difference between 5mg proscar and 5mg generic finasteride would there?

Hello again,
I felt like shit in the gym today, i put it down to the fin'....feel like i didnt recover from yesterdays workout ( which never happens to me)
I kinda of regret taking the tablet tbh...my head is all over the place atm, i cant decide what i should do. Being this indecisive is obv' not a good sign but im just desperate
I have done alot of reading into the whys/hows etc of mpb and feel i have an understanding, along with that understanding is the knowledge i have of how important our hormones are....messing with these scares me a bit.
When i get a bit more time ill read your thread, thank you again

dear adam, I knw there r a few sights as disheartening for a male than to see a receading hairline and a palmful of hairs in shower.
U gotta b strong and carefully weigh your priorities. As for finastride...it is not a solution just a temporary fix. Also it will compeletly stop the hairfall, it'll minimize it and therby delay the MTB. Fin. is a hormone altering drug and shrinks the prostate thereby inhibiting the 5 AR enzyme(i assume u have done ur researches on how it works) . Everything boils downs to a choice between your sex potency and your hair.
Btw. Finastride is not the only exit left. There is always Minoxidil. I am ising it and in a way I wend it better bcoz it makes hair look thicker. Add biotin to your diet(naturally or supplement).
....And about my story you can read my thread 'Rise of the dead' its all in there.
PS: Even If you do start fin. and want to knw anything regarding sides etc. ur welcome anytime.Leave a comment:

What was your experience with it?
Did you have lots of side effects?
My concern about myself is im vulnerable atm, kind of desperate, and quite low, everything i read changes my mind again.Leave a comment:

Just A friendly word of caution
hey Adam
I hope ur in the pink of health
I have used finastride for a good period of time and also read a zillion posts about it..firsts before starting it and then when I had the sides. I would suggest as a well wisher to look for other alternatives first. And Fin. does have side effects i don't think only 1% people have sides rather its the other way round.Leave a comment:
