    Default Abnormal question about Propecia

    Hi all, I have been on propecia for about 4 weeks now. I started at 1mg and had sides so I am taking .25mg every day now. I don't have any testicular pain or ED like I had with 1mg, but I have this weird, slight discomfort in the tip of my penis. Has anyone else had this when taking propecia and did it go away?

    Thanks

    I had that when I was quitting. I decided that I didn't wanna risk taking the drug anymore so I started lowering my dosage, when i went from .25 to .015 there was a few days where the head of my penis was sore, like I had pressed on it too hard, went away after 4 days or so. But like I said that was when I was quitting after being on it for 4 months with no sides.

    Wait it out a bit, alot of people have sides for a little bit(say a few weeks) then it goes away.

    thanks rdawg...I appreciate your advice. That is what I'm planning on doing, it isn't severe...just annoying.

    Cr - How did you measure out a dose of 0.015 mg?

    I was on 1mg propecia, so i cut it into quarters, so .25 mg. Then I cut the quarter in half as best I could, which is roughly 0.015. Not exact but I did my best, its not too hard to get it pretty even.
