Finasteride is safe for the majority of users

Most of you will not experience side effects from Finasteride. There is little reason to use more than 1mg every other day.

If you are in the less than 2% that possibly experiences side effects you simply discontinue use and your body will regulate your hormones

Tired of the fear mongering on here. I’ve been on Fin almost a year myself and have had ZERO side effects srs

it's a miracle drug. I take 1 mg/day. How is 1 mg every other day working out for you? Any harm in your opinion if you just take 1 mg every day?

I take it daily, but the research suggests that every other day is just as efficient

What you heard vs. what’s been published in medical studies are two different things

Even if the sides occur they’re easily reversible. There’s medicine to counteract the suppression of DHT.

Plus if you are experiencing side effects it would be stupid of you to not assess your test levels/estrogen/and overall blood panels making sure you’re getting proper nutrition

I've seen that chart.
Supposedly 0.5mg/day inhibits DHT 97% as much as it would with 1mg/day. But since i'm not having any sides, I might as well go the full 1mg.

The big one is ED which is why the misc trolls ironically have a hard on trying to dissuade people from using it, but clinical trials show side effects occurring in an extremely small percentage of users

Bruh, I'm on fin too and it's an amazing drug. Not only does it slow/stop hairloss, for guys like myself it can slow down the aging process because DHT has a tendency to accelerate aging..... check out fitness youtubers who clearly abuse DHT-derivative steroids, some of them are mid 20s but look like they're 40 years old.

Now having said that, it's naive to dismiss reports of sides as fear-mongering. There's no such thing as a drug that doesn't have a side effect profile.
Everything I post is satire.
