    Default My Finasteride Dilemma

    Hey Guys,

    Not too sure what I'm looking for out of this, maybe just a chance to get some stuff off my chest as there's nobody in my life who I'm comfortable talking to about this stuff. Any advice is always appreciated though.

    Basically I started to notice recession and thinning at about 21 and when I was 22 I finally decided to get on Finasertide. At first there was a reduction in my libido but after a while it returned to pretty much normal. After a while on the drug I started to notice my semen was much more watery, that was a bit annoying but not a huge deal to me. Hair loss definitely slowed down and I was starting to think I'd definitely have a good amount of hair into my 30's. I was pretty happy.

    This is the part where it gets weird:

    I'm almost 26 now and the veins in my penis have gradually started to get much more visible. I didn't even really notice for the first two years but it has gotten so much more pronounced that I no longer feel comfortable with a girl even seeing it. It's really covered with dark blue ones and a ton of smaller red ones as well where before none were visible. That doesn't seem to be a common side effect but I've come across a couple forum posts mentioning it.

    I asked my doctor and he sort of just brushed it off (he never saw it erect though which is 100x worse).

    Now I can't decide what to do, I really don't want to give up on the fin but obviously this is a huge problem for a single young man.

    Sorry if I grossed anyone out.
