    Default Finasteride and Constipation

    Hi all, Im new here but been looking around the forum but didnt find anything related to finasteride and bowel problems

    I have been taking fin for 2 weeks. 0.5 mg per day and noticed I have been constipated for nearly as long, Could be a conincdence.

    Im wondering has anyone experienced this?

    Also maybe I should go 0.5mg EOD. Sides wise also I had ball for few days but it subsided. No problems getting an errection.

    I read an piece that fin can lead to cancer and other such thing. Just wondering opinions on this?

    Cheers

    Ugh. It's your diet. Please don't blame Finasteride for something outrageous as constipation.

    Eat fibrous foods such as raspberries, pears, and Ezekiel cereal.

    You are more than likely experiencing constipation by dehydration perhaps. I don't often hear of this being an issue with finasteride.
