Title: Finasteride 7 months on T
Post by: loren1 on April 01, 2017, 12:58:29 AM
Hey guys. So I've been losing my hair on testosterone and I've finally convinced my parents to let me take finasteride, as they were hesitant about it, but my hair is really important to me since I'm only 19.

This post is directed toward anyone who has taken finasteride and is on testosterone. Did you guys have any side effects? Were the effects of T slower for you once you started, like getting facial hair? I don't have a lot right now since it's pretty early on for me at 7 months on T, so I don't know how badly finasteride is going to affect that for me. I've heard it doesn't usually affect facial/body hair growth that significantly, but I'm curious as to your experiences. Also, did you experience any sexual side effects, like with sex drive or like genital growth issues? I'm also really worried about those. Thanks!
