bitchtits from finasteride

**skinnykenney** · 09-21-2008, 08:38 PM

i get emails from a male patern balding place.
in one I recieved today it showed a picture of a guy with really pointy tits.
the email stated "the drug companies say this only happens in about1-2 percent of users".
The email also says independent studies say closer to 30-40 percent get this side effect. (that is a BIG variation in studies!)
Has anyone had a side effect from proscar/finasteride like this?

id have to look into it more .. possibly if you ware say running test because finasteride would block exogenous test's DHT and estrogen side effects from test would be magnified.

I have used it while on test and never had a problem. However i don't/won't use it anymore.

I used it primarily because i have MPB and use to give a $hit about my hair, not anymore. The stuff didn't work well enough in my opinion to justify buying it.

thanks foe the info!
it seems to keep my mpb at bay (mpb is on both sides of my family and on almost every male on my Mothers side and fathers side)
but I am also on nizoral 2percent so I wonder if that is helping?

Although I've never heard of this personally, ANTHING (no matter how seemingly trivial or infinitesimally small) that impacts the sex hormone ratio has the potential to elicit such side effects within the male body at ANY age or phase of life.
