Avatar f tn I've been taking L'Arginine and L'Orthinine to enhance muscles growth after working out in the gym. I'm also taking 1mg of Propecia due to a hair loss problem. Are there any side effects taking both at the same time? Is L'Arginine hindering the benefits of Propecia (like make me loose hair again)?

Avatar n tn Within the last 4 months I have noticed that when ejaculating during sex, my ejaculation is not as strong and barely comes out. I had no problems before this period with a strong ejaculation. There also seems to be less volume of fluid.( I am a 40 year old male and had a vasectomy 2 years ago.) Is this a sign of a prostate problem?
Avatar n tn Generally it takes awhile to get your system back to normal after stopping a medication, however if it continues to be a problem after a couple months, I would have it checked.
Avatar m tn t get my prescription renewed for awhile due to these sides, although after about 2 months I decided to give it another go, but this time at 1/4th the dose .25mg. I started getting sides again and decided that it wasn't worth it and quit for good.
Avatar n tn s assistant pretty much ruled out telogen effluvium, told me it was androgentic alopecia, and wrote me a prescription for Propecia. I almost wish I had not went to this appointment as I now have to decide between what this PA concluded and what seems like common sense. Does this seem like a correct diagnosis or should I get a second opinion?
Avatar n tn “Women who are or may potentially be pregnant must not use PROPECIA and should not handle crushed or broken PROPECIA tablets because the active ingredient may cause abnormalities of a male baby's sex organs. If a woman who is pregnant comes into contact with the active ingredient in PROPECIA, a doctor should be consulted. PROPECIA tablets are coated and will prevent contact with the active ingredient during normal handling, provided that the tablets are not broken or crushed.
Avatar m tn I am 39 and for the past 2 weeks have had a disturbing issue. I still strongly feel the urge for sex and am still very interested in my wife, but it suddenly is taking quite some time to get an erection. When it finally happens it is a somewhat weak one and i have to rush for fear of it going away even though everything still feels great. I do not smoke-I quit 3 years ago- I don't use drugs and drink light to moderately. I take propecia and straterra and have for years.
Avatar m tn I think your question is fair enough. Your hair is going to fall out in excess on treatment even with the use of Propecia or Rogaine; that is just one of the unfortunate side effects. Hair restoration meds are not cheap and personally I wouldn't waste my money on it until several months after you have completed treatment.

Avatar m tn After a potential exposure in October 2013 I had my most recent HIV test at the end of June 2014, 8 months after event. I am still suffering from extreme flu like symptoms from time to time. I'm working with my GP and have had several other tests but nothing is coming back with any ideas as to what can be causing these. I am going back to the GP next month to speak with him again but could for example Chrons' disease cause a HIV test at 5 or 8 months to be inaccurate?
1155893 tn?1263018015 When I first started taking the medication my doc said it be gone by 3 months, max. But now 5 months later... its still not gone and on top of that I have these dark marks that the acne has left behind. Im really starting to get afraid that its not gonna work. Has accutane ever not worked for anyone? Does it usually take this long? Will it every go away? words of encouragement...?
Avatar n tn I'm 24 years old. 2 years ago something I began experiencing changes that included a loss of libido, virtually no ejaculate during orgasm, and erectile dysfunction that coincided with the taking of propecia. I only took 10 days worth of the medication and stopped after that because I couldn't deal with the side effects. These side effects did not go away though. Then, one and a half years ago I began waking up to really painful erections in the night.
Avatar m tn 5 mg for one year and 1 mg for 1 year till today), In october 2016 my derm put me on accutane 10 mg and minoxiline(100mg) for treating my mild acne, I had been drinking heavily for 5 days before starting my accutane course, 10 days into the course, I started to have Gyno(Unilateral, right breast with a movable tender lump), I dropped accutane and minoxiline and also propecia after 23 days. It has been a month now but my Gyno hasnt reduced, I restarted propecia as I was starting to lose hair.
Avatar n tn I enjoyed the subxone (after opiates) and took 16 mg, 8 in the am and 8 in the evening. I felt great the whole time I was on it, almost immediately. I will have to say coming off of it was the same as it was for most others here, worse and lasted longer than vike withdrawal.
Avatar n tn Help. My wife accidentally took propecia (3 mgs over 2 days) thinking it was something else. We are planning on having kids soon. Can there be consequences to a future pregnancy from this mistake? How long will the propecia stay in her body?
Avatar m tn 10 165lbs and over the past year I noticed quite a few scary symptoms which im not sure as to what the cause is. One of the symptoms I have been experiencing is bed wetting which is something I have not done since I was a kid but within the past year have urinated three times in bed, I went into the doctor and they checked my urine sample but it came back well within the normal range.

Avatar f tn Hi, I caught HSV 1 two months ago. My partner transmitted his oral herpes to my genitals and also, my chin (no idea how that happened). Anyways, within two days I felt a cut sensation on my genitalia. I then went to the doctor who did a visual diagnostic and a swab. She gave me Valtrex while we waited for results.
Avatar m tn Propecia would not cause such side effects I can assure you. Sex drive, libido, and erection issues are possibilities with longterm use of that drug. Not sores. Eliminate this as a possible correlation. Fleet has provided the best advice. Id follow his instructions and seek a swab and blood test immediately. What you describe sounds like a herpes infection without a doubt. Multiple grouped blisters and swollen nodes are clear indicators. Please test. Wish you the best.
Avatar m tn My erections are not as hard as they used to be and I do not stay hard for long. I attribute my erection problems to the Propecia tablet that I take daily. As you know, Propecia is 1 mg. of finasteride. Propecia has been shown to cause side effects such as erectile problems in a small minority of users. Unfortunately, I appear to be in that small minority. Once my erection problems surfaced, I began looking for a solution.
