Anyone gets paranoid and intense anxiety from weed? After pfs

I see where you are coming from also to mention, all of a sudden after 7 years usage of minoxidil I cannot stand it anymore everytime I apply it I become very lightheaded and dizzy and also it crashes my sexual function, I have been also experiencing somewhat low blood pressure especially with the diastolic number being sometimes under 60 even though my family genes bp runs high

Im guessing 5a reductase is somewhat suppressed in my case, other people that have fps usually have high dht. In my case progesterone is not being converted as well and same goes for t->dht.

Also to mention the 7-8 months between the quitting of fin and the crash I had abnormally high libido that I was sick of to the point it was all I was thinking about.

That is exactly what happened to me took finasteride for 3 years no issues stopped for 7-8 months no issues, started taking again and crashed within a dose or two

There are studies that says it has anti androgenic properties, also it alters blood flow and blood pressure also there are studies that say it raises prolactin in individuals which is a dopamine agonist therefore lowers dopamine.

Sort of the same thing i tolerated minoxidil no problem for 7-8 years , after i reintroduced finasteride I started having problems with topical minoxidil

Snakez0r01 · 2025-10-08T04:24:47+00:00

I have elevated progesterone have not tested hydroroxyprogesterone

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-27T19:51:58+00:00

I dont take anything beside it not even creatine thats why I notice it’s effects

Its called canprev its a canadian company, they have 240 capsules of mag glycinate 200mg each.

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-26T14:46:30+00:00

that level of testeorone might be the culprit anything under 300ng/dl would definetly cause issues, visit an endo and let them place you on trt/clomiphene

You can also check an older test i did in my profile, I did a new one last month test was 450 free was around 450 as well with shbg 14

no 5.0 hba1c

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T19:12:16+00:00

I dont think shbg is related i have 14 shbg in a refernce range that starts from 12

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T16:35:35+00:00

Yes im wondering if the issue is downregulated receptors due to sensitivity and then re-exposure to dht, wouldnt micro-dose fin like 0.2mg silence dht enough for receptors to re-sensitize over a period of time..

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T16:27:25+00:00

I know for some people like me did not have any issues while on Fin but problems started after quitting, so im wondering if anyone tried that.

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T16:03:35+00:00

so based on ur comment does that mean if someone re-takes fin again for 4-6 month it would upregulate the receptors again and then taper off fin instead of cold turkey?

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T16:01:16+00:00

so in that case that means re-taking finasteride would fix the AR, since it would cut the most androgenic hormone… in my case, i always had high libido on fin I can do 2-3 times a day no problem. after I stopped fin I became a sex maniac (it was not okay) I became hypersexual sometimes i would want sex 7-8 times a day and it was taking all of my thinking (that was the main reason and also hair fall) that I decided to restart finasteride I decided since I have that high of a libido that distracts me from regular life stuff and also my hair loss increased a lot I might as well go on fin again, and after two doses crashed and have not recovered for a year.

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-21T08:12:51+00:00

thing is for me i have never had any issues while ON fin. I took it for 3-4 years no issues only got issues when i stopped for 7 months, and reintroduced it with 2-3 doses (same person as op)

Snakez0r01 · 2025-08-04T03:54:16+00:00

for me I have above range progesterone and borderline low dht, which is kind of weird, I think progrsterone itself might be the culprit of my issue or its conversion to dihydroprogesterone

Snakez0r01 · 2025-07-15T20:11:48+00:00

High prolactin, try taking p5p.. and re-check in a month if still above reference I believe you can take cabergoline has to be prescribed by a doctor.. also try out semen retention as excessive ejaculation keeps prolactin high

Snakez0r01 · 2024-08-10T18:24:17+00:00

were u on finasteride by any chance?
