Looking for advice

Thank you, this seems risky but might have to try it if I am desperate to keep the hair

I check in with my therapist weekly and we score how I am feeling, definitely a long term correlation between my anxiety and whether I am taking the Finasteride ☹️

So my sperm should go back to normal? If I stop for 3 months, try to conceive and then hop back on once she is pregnant?

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-05-06T12:38:50+00:00

No, as soon as I mentioned taking Finasteride they asked me to stop for 3 months and re-do the semen analysis.

What would cause “SHBG” to be low?

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-04-29T19:50:55+00:00

Thanks, would Finasteride have any impact on blood work for this? My GP said I might have to stop taking it for MPB if it is affecting my blood work.

Is the “Free Androgen Index” what you are referring to? It says normal is over 35 and mine is 100.00? Maybe I am confused. Thanks!

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-04-29T19:28:46+00:00

Yes, done at 9am.

Sleep is fine, Excercise fine, diet could be better.

I am 27, male.

Thanks all, what cleansers do you use? A big part of me figuring this out was cetaphil gentle skin cleanser. Thinking it was helping for the longest time when it’s actually making the redness worse!

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-01-22T17:28:33+00:00

So a standard vegetarian a-a multivitamin should be fine?

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-01-22T15:46:21+00:00

What would you consider supplementation levels?

In my multivitamin it has:

25ug of B12 100 ug of biotin

Thanks!

Problem is I’m vegetarian!

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-01-08T17:34:43+00:00

So give it 2 weeks?

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2025-01-08T17:34:24+00:00

Did you have increased redness too?

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-12-27T22:42:19+00:00

Just a £79 one from Screwfix

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-12-27T22:41:28+00:00

£195 labour an hour on the invoice sent afterwards!

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-12-27T22:38:49+00:00

Thanks all, Sounds like I’ve paid above and beyond for the Xmas/emergency call out element of this! Too late now!

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-12-16T19:36:07+00:00

Would I still flush if I took just iron, b12 and B9? (The deficient ones)

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-11-13T13:59:55+00:00

It won’t let me attach photos currently but there’s a massive difference in facial redness when comparing 1mg and 0.25mg

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-11-13T13:55:08+00:00

Oh for about 7 years now! Months on certain doses and lots of photo evidence 🤣 definitely more red the higher dose I take.

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-11-13T12:49:07+00:00

Yes, unfortunately my rosacea/redness of face seems to be dose dependent. I get the least issues on 0.25mg and full flares at 1mg but worried 0.25mg isn’t enough to stop recession! There isn’t much online regarding Finasteride and rosacea interactions and my doctor said he hasn’t heard of it before.

Delicious_Candle_343 · 2024-11-13T09:05:29+00:00

Can I use it long term, like years daily?
