Hi
I am 25, began balding at 17. I was made fun of, depressed, etc. and it appeared I would be completely bald by 20.
I than began on propecia, and now on .5 avodart and rogaine.
The avodart has stabilized my hair loss for the most part, and there is no doubt that I would be completely bald if not for these drugs.
But, this is hell. I am certain these drugs completely screwed up my hormones.
I have the following side effects (when I take a week off, they go away): impotence, depression, lack of sexual desire, lack of muscle development, possibly slight gyno and significantly decreased all my manly attributes.
I can lift weights for hours but when I’m on f’n avodart I won’t see any gains. I used to be one of the best athletes around, but now it’s so sad. When I’m off the drugs I can see and feel my muscle growth and definition coming back and actually feel really attracted to girls again.
This is such a difficult position to put myself in… Any guidance would be much appreciated.
My plan is to not quit cold turkey but lean off, and possibly try a buzz cut so I do not notice how much hair I’m losing… Just afraid of the reaction at work and from family from the buzz cut. God, this sucks.
