Not sure why maybe im just a positive person, fit, no health issues, always do exercise consistently for more than a decade. averaging sex in a month atleast 3 (not sure if thats ideal for my age now), masterbating almost everyday.

    There is a way to take the drug, and k eep the side effects minimal if not having them at all. One has to be proactive when it comes combating the mental and physical sides. If you are prone to depression, then stay on your medication, or consider a low dose antidepressant. I use finasteride orally 2 to 3 times a week, and the other days topically. For me, losing my hair has, and would make me feel worse mentally.

      Local finasterid has less side effects while still having effects on DHT locally. Overall i'd say its quite a good alternative. Im using a selfmade solution with 0.091% finasterid, mixed with alcohol, glycerine and minoxidil.
      There is a other doctor on yt that shows meta- study about different finasterid solutions. According to the studys 0.091% is the lowest dihalation where the study still find significant effects on reducing hairloss while there is practically 0 effect on blood serum dht reduction❤

No exceptions, unless you're a mentally really strong guy. That's the nocebo effect and is very strong. Believe me, during the 10+ years I take fine, I've been falling in that pit too. I consider myself lucky to have proceeded and overcame the nocebo effect. That's why I still have hair...and have great sex with the wife 😅

    10:29 "This is not a medicine for the meek". Totally agree. People are so scared of Finasteride from reading the Internet and Reddit, that they won't even fight for their hair. Side effects can be beaten and destroyed so that you can get the best side effect of Fin and that's hair growth and stabilization. Once I got my doctor consultation to get prescribed, my doctor laughed at me because 1mg does was so low, and they use 5mg normally for patients with BPH. In fact, I'm more scared about Minoxidil because that actually gave me health scares related to my heart. Great interview -- I wish you would have asked him about Finasteride efficacy over age ranges, as I believe it's more effective at early ages.

      I took fin for 3 weeks (1mg) and experienced extreme sexual side effects inc. watery semen, reduced amount of semen and reduced ejaculation distance. I immediately ceased using it and the symptoms eased off to a small extent but have remained a constant for 16 months.

    This doctor is competent, but he does not believe in topical finasteride. He says it wont penetrate the scalp skin enough to be effective.... can u ask him about that matt?

    • @MrMoeqt
      @MrMoeqt Рік тому

      Topical Finasteride 100% does penetrate the scalp and absorb systemically. It has a molecular weight of approximately 372 g/mol (Dalton). The 500 Dalton rule, which has been confirmed with studies spanning decades now, states that any chemical with a molecular weight above 500 Dalton can not penetrate human skin and transmit itself systemically. Finasteride is well below that level, and I can attest from personal experience, that using Topical Finasteride exhibited the same side-effect profile for me as Oral Finasteride.
      What's interesting however, is that Dutasteride has a molecular weight of 528.5 Dalton, which is only slightly lower than Ketoconazole, which has a molecular weight of 531 Dalton. It's widely agreed that topical application of Ketoconazole, usually in it's 2% form in Nizarol shampoo, doesn't absorb systemically into the body (in keeping with the 500 Dalton rule). This does suggest that Topical Dutasteride and Dutasteride Mesotherapy shouldn't give systemic side effects, due to Dutasteride's high molecular weight.
      I am personally going to try Dutasteride Mesotherapy (microinjecting Dutasteride into the scalp) with a dermatologist next month. All the research I have conducted suggests that it does not cause any systemic side effects. I haven't done enough research about Topical Dutasteride, but it wouldn't surprise me if it also didn't cause systemic side effects.
      I would highly recommend people investigate Topical Dutasteride and Dutasteride Mesotherapy before pursuing Oral Finasteride, Topical Finasteride, or Oral Dutasteride.
      Hope this helps

      Thanks for sharing. 5mg Fin is very bad for sperm count and sperm motility. It is almost as bad as 0.5mg Dutasteride. Doctor should have advised a sperm test before increasing the dose onto 5mg Fin. Then you could tell for sure whether Fin caused this. I have a friend who is close to being impotent in his early 30s. Never used Fin, or Dut in his life, no drugs, or alcohol.

Then I was dumb and used fin instead for some months. I quit and didnt recover after 4 months. Then I got on fin again for 50 days and recently quit cause I cant handle the weak ejaculation force it gives me poor orgasm feeling. I hope to recover some day.

      Finasteride is a deadly drug. You must understand that every drug out there has some type of negative side effect. My urologist at the time was a fool. He incorrectly advised me that finasteride was one of the safest drugs out there with 0 side effects. By the time I found out from another urologist it caused impotence in many men it was too late. My advice is if you value your sex life more than a few hair follicles stay away from finasteride or anything similar. It’s already ruined my sex life and my marriage as well! The inventors of this drug need to be sued!

    And believe me... I am a person who has been doing everything possible for ten years, including a hair transplant (once), but for a satisfactory result I need more grafts..

    Hey Matt - question for ya:
    I was on Fin for 8 months at 0.25mg everyday for 8 months - no sides
    Bumped it up to 0.50mg everyday for 4 months - no sides.
    I then increased it to 1.25mg everyday for 6 months and noticed that my testosterone increased significantly. A few weeks ago I developed some puffyness and tenderness in my left pec/nipple. Ive been off Finasteride for 5 weeks now with some reduction in the tenderness and puffyness. I had my blood levels checked and estradiol, prolactin, and thyroid all in healthy ranges but my Test still being slightly higher.
    Obviously you are not a doctor, but do you recommend continuing to remain off Finasteride? And as for Gyno do you know more ways to reduce it? I'd like to hop back on fin but at a much lower dosage in the future just want to get the gyno issue sorted.

    It's not very intuitive that a hair drug would give you a soft erection. I think the people who were given finasteride without the warning likely underreported their side effects. People assume that the non-informed drug takers were more accurate, but I find that unlikely. Please note, I took 1 mg per day and had wicked side effects (erection only lasted about 5 seconds). I now take it 1 mg MWF. And this seems to work. I'm also taking other supplements like Boron and DIM. I don't know if they help, but the combination of reduced finasteride and possibly supplements has made sex life tolerable.

      @@dunes1011 Boron Citrate is supposed to increase your free testosterone. I take a combo of 300mg I3C + 100mg DIM. I have no side effect from DIM, but i don't think it's working or stopping the side effects from Finasteride. The main thing that works to reduce side effect from Finasteride is just taking it 3x a week. One mg eavery M/W/F. That lower does helps with side effects.

      lol it’s not very intuitive to assume this was originally conceived as a hair loss drug finasteride was a medication for prostate issues not hair growth originally

    It’s not “side effects”… it’s a death sentence.. we need to stop referring to it as “side effects”

    Finasteride doesn't work for everybody just like the doctor himself.
