Common Questions and Answers about Propecia weight loss

propecia

Avatar n tn m on propecia...however, my doctor (being pretty cool), prescribed me 5mg Finasteride (i.e. Propecia). I split the pills in half, which is pretty close to the dosage for Propecia. The bottle lasts me two months, and costs me $5 because finasteride is covered on my insurance. I'm 28 years old, soooo....the insurance company DID need my doctor to verify the prescription. But like I said, he is cool :) See if your doc will hook you up the same!
Avatar n tn I experienced several side effects from the drug including total loss of sex drive, difficulty maintaining erections, loss of spontaneous erections/morning erections. I stopped taking propecia within 3 weeks due to an inability to deal with these side effects. Things seemed to be slowly getting slightly better as the weeks and months progressed however now some new issues have been arising.
Avatar n tn Also get your husband’s sperm count done. Propecia is known to cause impotence, abnormal ejaculation, loss of sex drive and pain in testicles. However its effect on sperm is not reported. “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.
Avatar n tn I know going bald is hereditary, but the fact is that it starts when -the body is producing to much testosterone that is being converted into DHT -Or some other type of imbalance is causing excess DHT DHT causes hair loss I am in the exact same boat as you guys except no propecia for my hair loss I also have gynecomastia and I am awaiting my hormone test to see if there is an underlying cause.
Avatar m tn I do not want to stop taking Propecia because it has done wonders for my hair. Propecia has halted my hair loss and has re-grown considerable amount of hair. Thus, I need to address my erection problems while still being able to take Propecia. I read that L-Arginine could help with my erectile problems and that it works similar to Viagra. Thus, I began taking L-Arginine, 1500 mg. twice a day. It has helped but it has not solved the problem.
Avatar f tn I am 25 year old guy.. I have hair loss. so the doctor prescribed me for propecia which i consumed last 50 days. for the first 30 days, i consumed one tablet per day and the last 20 days i consumed 2 tablets/day. I was also taking anti convolution tablet for a different reason from a different doctor for 10 days. Now i am having erectile dysfunction. So i stopped taking the pills now. Can anybody please tell me how many days it will take usually for reversing this condition?
Avatar n tn I would suggest you to consult a dermatologist for this as it is important to rule out all the causes of hair loss and reach a confirmatoty diagnosis.Treatment is specific for that diagnosis.Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Warm regards.
Avatar m tn I went to a dermatologist and she put me on propecia for the hair loss. I also took a blood test and said my iron was low. But other then that I my blood was normal. Is it possible they ran certain tests on my blood and not others which maybe why I am misdiagnosed. I have a follow up in late july. I didnt have this burning sensation before i went to see my doc. And my burning scalp is not a symptom of propecia. Any ideas to what this could be? A disease?
Avatar n tn 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 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 Folks; I'm not sure if this is the right forum to ask this question but i will ask it any way hoping some one may have answer. I've been taking Paxil 20 mg for about 5 years now, 1 years ago, my doctor added Lamictal 300 mg to help my mood swing issue. Now I'm trying to get off Paxil, so my doctor start adding Wellbutrin 300 mg to the mix to start gradually getting Paxil off my system. The problem is since we added Wellbutrin I noticed that i'm losing a lot of hair.

5708852 tn?1372804931 Hi everyone! Ok so sorry if I go in to depth in my question and sound a little rude! So i'm only 19 but I'm struggling here!

1132002 tn?1260268657 Are you taking or have you ever taken propecia or hair loss herbs like saw palmetto?
Avatar m tn Yes, 5.7 makes sense for a TSH, and it's a little on the high side, indicating hypothyroidism. 25 mcg is a very small dose of thyroxine. Did your doctor test FREE T3 and FREE T4 as well? They are the actual thyroid hormones and much more important than TSH (ascreening test at best). Without seeing those, it's hard to say what 25 mcg might do for you. Your should request FT3 and FT4 along with TSH next time.
Avatar f tn It blocks the conversion of dht and can inturn lower testosterone levels. if u read up on propecia, the hair loss treatment.
Avatar m tn s due to using findriside for hair loss. My hair is fine but not worth it now. I only just noticed it four days ago and have immediately stoped taking the medication. Would you say I have done permanent damage or when the findristride is totaly out if my system will it all go back to normal. I have an okay sex life and I am 32.
Avatar n tn In the last 5-6 months I have had unprotected oral sex (receiving) with 3 women and protected (condom) intercourse with 3 sex workers with some kissing. I am also on propecia medication for hair loss for the past 4 months. I also have a tendency to get anxiety. My fear is that I might have contracted an STD.
Avatar m tn I have been taking Propecia since 2.5 years at variable doses(0.25 first 6months, 0.5 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.
1654177 tn?1319838494 m 5 weeks post SOC. My hair loss has continued but gradually I lose less and less. However right at the edge of my hair line I can see small hairs growing in. Although I can't recall the details, I do know the first time I did tx, I lost hair and it all grew back. Be patient, it will grow. Bo~Its the interferon that causes hair loss. It doesn't happen to everyone and can begin at differing times.
Avatar m tn Considered it before, but to expensive. Gonna have a kid next year. Anyway the cause of your big c**k could also be the cause of your hair loss. Hormones are a B**ch. I would suggest staying away for propecia or any other medication that would block any hormone your body naturally produces. Same boat only I'm 25 at least it is happening later in life for you. I wear hats alot too and my head is shaved.
