    Default Almost 1 month on Fin, minor sides, when should I be concerned?

    Hey guys,

    I started Fin exactly on May 28th, I've had absoloutely zero symptoms up until the last 2-3 days where I've noticed a lack in sex drive, I still manage to get an errection and bust a nut (Sometimes even more , orgasms mostly feel the same, lack of morning wood (though I rarely got them in the past)

    The lack of sex drive is a little concerning, I am on 1mg daily, should I power through this and monitor my symptoms to cancel out the chance of it being placebo? or should I lower the dose/hop off it for 1 week and then start again.

    Hi mate. Just like you I started finestiride 2 months ago. Initially I had the same problems as you with the lack of sex drive, but it was more placebo for me. Initially when I started taking it I would subconsciously keep thinking about the drug and how it would stop me getting an erection, so it was more of a psychological thing for me. After a few weeks of using it, I stopped thinking about the drug As it became part of my routine and my sex drive was back to normal.
    I only take 1mg every 3 days which was recommended by my doctor.

    Ah I see, I'm busting nuts daily, **** I even busted twice today lol. I've thought about the 3 day/w frequency, have you had any noticable results or is it too early to tell?

    Few new hair growth in the frontal area. But this drug is to only really stop hair loss, it won’t really grow back the hair you’ve already lost. I’m going for a hair transplant in a Turkish Clinic in a few months.

    Nice, good luck! Are you using Minoxidil as well or just on Fin? I think starting next week I'll be lowering my dose to see how it effects my libido, I'm also going to go nofap for the rest of the week to see how it affects my sex drive.

    Just finestiride. Once I have the hair transplant I may look into minoxidil. And yes, nofap will definitely improve your sex drive.
