Less Propecia, Less Side Effects?
April 5th, 2010 admin
Dr. Rassman, Thanks so much for this valuable site. I am considering Propecia. It is the possible sides, not the $$$, that has me hesitating. I have done the research on Clinical Studies, Dr. Frankel’s article, your posts, etc. The data seems to indicate, and you’ve agreed that .5 mg is roughly 80% as effective for hair growth/retainment as a full 1mg. My question is, are the side effects proportionally decreased? Is there

How do you keep the hair that you have without any side effect medications? Most men have no side effects from Propecia, as the sexual side effects only occur in 1% of patients. Members of my own family take it and have no side effects, nor have they ever had them. Minoxidil has side effects of its own, including changes in blood pressure and skin...
Dear Dr. Rassman, Thank you for this informative website. I visit everyday, and my wife just gave me your book for the holidays. Unfortunately, I am one of the few who have experienced side effects with Propecia. I was orginally on 1mg per day, and then I tried 1mg every other day, and .5 every day. But everytime I had to stop. Luckily, all three...
From your medical point of view, if someone had side effects from a year’s worth of Propecia, could fasting help speed up the side effects going away? I’ve read that water fasting or juice fasting accelerates recovery because energy usually spent on digestion is now used for healing and returning the body back to a baseline level. I don’t...
Dr. Rassman: Prior to reading this, thank you for your time. Your insight and knowledge is of great appreciation. My situation is as follows: I started propecia, was on it for a month, then underwent a HT of 1,900 grafts mainly in the front hairline. I continued to use propecia for 2 more months and began to experience some serious sexual side effects....
Men considering Propecia (finasteride) as a hair loss treatment are often highly concerned about the possibility of sexual side effects. And though these side effects are reported as rare on Merck’s website, they are a very real possibility. Thus, Propecia consumers should be aware of the risks and what to do in the event they’re

Hi Doctor. I have been on a generic finasteride that I bought from Mexico (manufactured by SBL Pharmaceuticals) for about three weeks now. I think I’m suffering from sexual side effects. But I’m not sure if it’s due to psychological stress or finasteride. My question is can I beat the side effects of the pill if I stick with the...
I see you often dismiss permanent side effects from Propecia on here. You rationalize them away, usually blaming them on psychological conditions or naturally occurring ED. Care to rationalize my situation. Pre-fin I was a healthy 21 y/o male with a raging sex drive and no difficulty with erections. I took 1mg daily for 12 days when I began to notice...
Hello good doctor I messaged you before and I understand you are busy. I am 22 years old and I have begun to notice a little bit of hair loss. The hair seems to be thinning out. I have started taking 0.5mg of Propecia today, I experienced some side effects with the 1 mg dont know if they were psychological or physiological in nature. My doctor recommended...
I took Proscar (1/4 of pill per day) for 2.5 years for my hair loss problem .I haven’t seen a clearly any side effects in the past 2 years but lately I read that Proscar causes erection dysfunction so I stopped using it three days ago and I tried to masturbate but I ejaculate quickly and before that my penis get rigid enough(I ejaculate before...
Dear sir, When I started on finasteride I noticed a very strange but rather pleasant side-effect: an increased libido. This makes sense since finasteride raises the levels of total testosterone; it is, however, contrary to the science literature, which commonly reports DECREASED libido as a potential side-effect. Why do some men suffer a decreased...
