Seriously, how bad and how likely are the side effects of finasteride?

[john2]

My doctor is pretty much on the verge of refusing to prescribe me finasteride cause he said I'll have serious health problems from using finasteride, including ED.

I don't want to lose my hair. I went to my doctor to get finasteride as a preventative measure to combat hair-fall.

But my doctor is already telling me how I should instead save nearly 7 grand and fly to Turkey for a hair transplant. I don't want to get hair transplant.

This time I only got a minoxidil prescription from my doctor.

So how likely is stuff like cancer or ED as a result of using finasteride?

Do u take or do anything about it or once u stop the minox ur hair will go back to baseline?

Your lash and brow gains will stay, but your scalp gains will shed. Just make sure you’re on a 5ARi.

Did u use it for hair sheeding or eyebrows and eyelashes?

lashes

I will get on oral minox to improve my eyebrows a little bit, will use it for around a year and thats it, what do u think?

I think that’s a dogshit idea personally. You will be a bloat lord for a year and not even have permanent gains. At least mine aren’t. Maybe they are slightly slightly better than baseline. But they are definitely not what they were on minox.

How do u think I should maximize eyebrow thickness and lashes lenght then?

All actual options are shit tbh.

Topical minox is probably your best bet for lashes and brows.

I fucking despise minox oral and topical so I wouldn’t do that either but if better brows will looksmax you then try it.

not even have permanent gains. At least mine aren’t

Most should be pretty much strong enough to handle life without the minox honestly. It won’t be quite as good but most should stay.

If you’re like me and don’t care about how you look currently until after surgery then I say just become a lashmaxed balloon for a bit. If you actually value your looks before that, then stay the fuck away from it.
