    Caught between a rock and a (not so) hard place...

    I feel hopeless too. I have had three major hair transplant surgeries and they are costly. I am not willing to go bald in at all (my hair is sort of my trademark and means a lot to me). However, I feel like the "brake line" between my brain and my groin has been permanently severed, almost like paralysis. I have ED (rare erections though occasional) and a very low libido. I had a very high libido and normal erections growing up, and the libido slowed a bit on SSRI anti-depressants but not debilitatingly so, but finasteride has pretty much extinguished my sex life. Without that natural enthusiasm that pushes and incites you, I am only eating more and feeling more disconnected. And yes, I had gotten in really good shape, working out daily, eating well and down to a 31" waist but it did not help my sex drive. Finasteride seems to make much more of a different than diet or exercise ever could, although I keep reading about those things.
