people have told me it's not normal for men to have sensitive nipples that make you twitch when you twist them and full body spasming orgasms that last nearly a whole minute and yet I have those all the time, my libedo is so high I was fapping probably 18 times a week during the pandemic, I only cut back (to 4 a week) because my testicles and the sperm tubes going into the abdomen got so sensitive and sore, I felt like I got punched pretty much all the time, any slight accidental touch of my testicles was bordering on painful and felt like a deliberate groin hit.

Anyways my point is I would hate for my libedo and atypical intense orgasms to lessen even a little bit, 20% is way too much, some people report their libedo all but disappearing and that would be horrible.

If you want them to be even cheaper buy a pill cutter and split the pill in half. Finasteride doesn't lose much efficacy when you compare 1mg to 0.5mg. If you want to make it even cheaper you can take it every other day although that's a bit riskier.

If you have a friend in pharma and he's willing to give you a 5mg perscription you can split the pill in 4 so it'll be EVEN cheaper.

24m, i took it whilst i was on ssri's (zoloft). not sure which was the cause, but whilst still on the drug i noticed many things change physically. Now the effect is undeniable, my skin is as thin as an elderly womans, so thin and wrinkly, with almost no subcutaneous fat beneath it. Moreover, it caused short term memory issues and i had dpdr for a while. Been off both drugs for over a year now and although the cognitive sides have eased up considerably, my body is truly the subject of atragedy. Went from smooth skin, thick and wrinkle-free skin to this progressively thinning, wrinkling, fragile shell that cannot stand sunlight without incurring critical damage and further accelerating its degradation. Iam not the only sufferer, look up propeciahelp. There are really intelligent people who frequent the site who provide scientific explanations for the varying damage finasteride is capable of. So please proceed with caution, and by that i mean check ur dna to see if u have the appropriate makeup to safely take this drug.

If you have a great hairline with strong temporal points (think Michael Imperioli or Zayn Malik) you're likely set for life, guys like that never end up losing their hair.

Is it genes though if you think about it? I can't stop thinking that maybe environment and lifestyle is a huge factor. Like at a certain point in life if you're doing certain things in a specific way the bad hair genes kick in and at that point it's like a domino effect. I spend my life here and I eat like shit and spend the day feeling depressed, while my brother is constantly travelling and is too busy working on something he likes, he lives in another country with a completely different diet, so he was spared.

I'm in the same boat. I spent so much time analyzing what I did differently compared to my dad and brother who have perfect hairlines, googling information to see if their lifestyle factors affect hair and testosterone in any way. If I knew I was going to end up like this I would've probably went into medicine/biology to make money out of studying this shit.
