I have noticed a lot of popular peptide/acillary websites just stopped carrying finasteride. Seems there is a lot more awareness on damage it can do. Not only does it stop conversion of test into DHT, but it stops coversion of pregnenolone / progesterone / deoxycorticosterone into allopregnanolone. Allo is a very important neurosteroid for mental health in everyone.

I took it off cycle last year and it destroyed my will to live. Every bad thing that happened to me made me emotional and very sad. Even my voice tone changed, i compared whatsapp audio notes of that time and prior to taking, while taking fin it was higher tone, sounded more like a pussy, so to speak.

In terms of libido i didnt feel anything bad, but i only took it one month.

Theres "post finasteride syndrome" that some people claim to have, which is keeping the side effects permanently even after stopping fin use.

Ill just be bald.

I'm currently taking 1.25 mg four to 5 times a week. I read all about the sides effects etc I didn't have side effects at all.
I know it's important to be well informed before you put any pharmaceutical in your body.. For me reading the information on side effects etc.. made me focus on the negative side effects. Sexual dysfunction etc. I read enough research and I felt it was the right decision for me to start on it.. I discussed it with my doctor and it was prescribed by him..

So took it, it's not a magic cure helps with shedding for sure and ive used with Nizoral Shampoo has help break down dht in the hair follicles.

Some steroids you take besides your trt can make you shed like hell even on Fina.

It hasn't hindered me in the gym in relation to gains, that's just my experience.
See what others have to say, read up a bit more on the topic and then make informed choice if its right or not right for you
