I took the Propecia Plunge

[Jcm800]

And the mind surely isn't capable of inducing gynaecomastia is it? Sides will surely come whether you fear them or not, if one is susceptible?

Of course the mind is capable of influencing whether or not you PERCEIVE you are experiencing sides.

If not, why do control group subjects receiving a placebo report sides???!!!

One week away from the two month mark. Erections are normal in the morning or during the course of the day. I do have testicle ache today for the first time.

Breast enlargement isn't a placebo.

Hey Thinning,

I've kept my eye on this thread, and I'm glad you're coming back to report. Hope you continue to do so.

Do you have a thread where you give your background (age, current NW, current treatments.)?

Curious about those types of things with fin users and their outcomes.

Regards.

I'm glad this thread is helpful. That is my only real goal with it. I plan on taking an updated picture after three months on fin. I've linked two of my threads with my background and treatments. I'd say I'm a NW 2.5 but with diffuse thinning. I have been on Rogaine for eight months and fin for almost two months.

Good stuff. Thanks.

I agree that you have a good head shape for super short hair, so, worst comes to worst, you'll be rockin' a skin head.

BigT whats the Fin update? Seen the derm yet?

[Ktownmatti]

No, of course the mind isn't capable of inducing gyno.

If you had absolutely none before starting fin, you maintained the same weight while on fin and then developed it, it's probably fair to say its the propecia.

Aches, pains, libido and depression come and go all the time for a myriad of reasons. If you are overly cognizant of them because of the anticipation of taking a drug, and you are going to over analyze every tiny little twitch you are probably going to perceive some of these sides.

I'm not saying no one ever experienced ED, or decreased libido or depression legitimately from fin - I'm just saying for some folks the power of suggestion is a powerful thing.
