@paspoert123 with all medications, there are risks of side effects. i personalize believe that propecia is very safe. however, you must always speak with a prescribing doctor about the risks, benefits, and limitations in person before starting.

@samlammd thnx for answer docter, i researched very much about propecia and i know the benefits and so on , but what i want to know is if i experience any side effects will they go away after i stop taking propecia i mostly concerned about the sexual side effects.

[samlammd]

@paspoert123 there are things on the internet that claim permanent sexual side effects. i have only had one reported case out of thousands from my patient base. i personally believe side effects for propecia are temporary.

[paspoert123]

@samlammd Thanks for the advice docter , i think i will give it a try. I was thinking of getting a treatment of propecia with minoxidill.

[samlammd]

@paspoert123 cool.

Nah man... I know quite a few people who got sick off propecia. Merck should have never released that drug.

Took propecia at 20 for 8 weeks...Stopped taking it, I am 27 right now, and the side effects have not gone away. I have erectile dysfunction. Go to the propeciahelp website to see relative stories.
