    Unfortunately, I also got ED, but not nearly as bad coming off the tane. Cialis definitely helps.
    Yeah pretty much my right temple is ****ed but left is not bad. Also have ED from accutane I am assuming and use cialis. 1) how do you figure out if the diffuse thinning is permanent or just some form of telogen effluvium 2) is buying cialis online safe. Shits so expensive.

    (1) It's probably permanent. I've also never seen any Accutane recoveries by men.

    (2) Doc gives me lots of samples. Also, my ED isn't that bad anymore so I don't need it every time.

    Anyway, how is the hair on other parts of your body? I just noticed that my pubes are patchy, i.e. small patches of really short hairs when the rest of the hair is longer. Usually they're shaved every other day, but I got lazy didn't shave for almost two weeks.

    Additionally, I am about to schedule an appointment with Dr. Bernstein who allegedly is good. Previous derms were awful. One of them looked at my hair for 5 seconds and said minox/fin is my only option. Which may be true but I didn't need to pay $285 for someone to tell me that.

    Will keep you updated.

    Yeah worried it wont go away. Do you think its safe to take propecia if I already have some mild ED. And what city is that doctor in?

    Do I think it's safe? Hell no. If you got ED from Accutane why would you ever try Propecia. I would tell you to consult a doctor but no doctor told me I could get ED from the tane. Further, you're only 19. If I were you, I'd go see an endocrinologist first to make sure the tane actually caused ED. Get prolactin, test, and thyroid checked before anything else.

    Why don't you try minoxidil? The risks to minoxidil are: heart palpitations; bad skin, and; may make you're hair worse. However, those allegedly are rare except for the latter. Indeed, there are ED cases with Minoxidil, including some on this forum. Nevertheless, they are temporary unlike some of the ED sides from Propecia.
