How to come off of Fin to minimize PFS effects
Hi all,
I am a newcomer to this thread. In fact, to any internet forum.
Here's the situation:
-33 years old
-been on Fin for 15 years or so (generic and proscar)
-stopped taking it a few weeks ago for the first time because I don't want to be on it while having kids
-10 days without it, noticed a sharp drop in libido (30-50% of norm) and gonads shrank a bit..
-After 2 weeks off, re-started it with half doses to regain libido and taper off.. 2 weeks back in and libido is steady around 50% of norm
I have had the following issues while on fin (I did not know what the cause was until reading your posts) in the past 2 years or so:
- testicular pain and swelling/rashing for a brief period: saw 6 urologists but no one knew what the source was. went away
- panic attack: went to the ER bc thought I was dying, first and hopefully last panic attack
- diagnosed with depression and anxiety- not sure if this is genetic or bc of the fin, but Im extremely anxious
- chest fat: I have had an extra layer of fat around my nipples no matter how much I workout
My question is this:
- From your experience, what's the best way to handle coming off of it?
- Is it possible to have healthy children while off of it after using it for so long?
My Dr doesn't know jack shit, as expected, and cited the Merck statistics of 2% side effects.. and even jokingly recommended I go back on it.
Thanks!
