I started finasteride 12 days ago and I'm crying a bit today? I sometimes cried before too so idk if it's related.
>>
>>83689921
people on estrogen always say how it makes them more emotional and makes them cry, fin is definitely feminizing you. it can cause dysphoria and make you troon out so be very careful
>>
>>83690087
I don't think I would ever do that. I fell asleep for a little while, I feel a little better. I still feel nervous and hopelessly alone, maybe I should walk to the bathroom and cry
>>
>>83690677
you already type like a woman, stop taking fin or you are gonna become a woman for real

its ok to cry sometimes anon
>>
>>83690087
Finasteride isnt estrogen and the amount you take for hair loss wont make you gay or a woman
>>
>>83689921
remember anon, the reaper always comes to collect. He's hot on my trail right now.
>>
>>83690790
its anti androgen and anti androgens increase estrogen too
>>
>>83690823
It cant be by that much can it? Troons take massive doses for years and barely change.
>>
>>83690863
it changes your brain before your body

i warned you
>>
>>83690895
stop scaring poor anon. i was on finasteride two years and it didnt do anything to my brain like that
>>
>>83689921
I have experienced no side effects and I have been taking it for a month. You crying is because you're probably an emotional faggot. Stop blaming this miracle drug for your homosexuality.
>>
>>83690895
Are you a tranny or something how do you know so much about feminizing hormones
>>

Different anon, not the one you're replying to.
Finasteride is an antiandrogen. Not as strong as bicalutamide but the idea is roughly the same: To kill some of your T to achieve a result.
Bicalutamide tries to kill all T (useful when treating prostate cancer, but yes, for body modding purposes as well) while finasteride tries to lower specifically DHT which is responsible with the balding, ultimately.
Since it's a weak AA, only about 4% of guys get side effects from it. And yes, those side effects are very similar to the ones of common feminization therapies.

The good news for OP: If this is the only side effect, soldier through it because you'll also get the effect you want for hair loss.
The bad news for OP: If you get other side effects (like erectile dysfunction), then F might to be the good solution for your hair needs and might want to try minoxidil.

>>83690863
Hons do. And those with fried receptors.
Troons who know what they're doing overwhelmingly get what they want.

>4%
Why does every pharmacy i go to say 9/10 success rate or is it just big pharma inflating their data?
I thought you were pretty much always supposed to use minoxodil with it anyway.
>>
>>83691095
Nevermind about the success rate i misread your post i havent slept in 24 hours
>>
>>83691095
>>83691134
It does have an even higher than 90% success rate. Likely even higher than 99%. It's a basic bitch antiandrogen. You can't really go wrong with it. The effects of it are wildly known.

>I thought you were pretty much always supposed to use minoxodil with it anyway
Now THAT is big pharma bs.
The gain from using both is marginal.
But the compounded side effects are not. Minoxidil has skin and heart side effects. Also very low prevalence, yes, but combining the two is unnecessary.
If you lower your DHT with finasteride, then it's unnecessary to use minoxidil on top of it because the scalp will regenerate regardless.

>i havent slept in 24 hours
Go to sleep.
Not sleeping well and enough also causes hormonal imbalances, anon.
>>
>>83691198
I think the 50 odd units of alcohol i drink every week dwarfs my broken bodyclock in terms of balding
I could have bought like 5 years of a brand prescription and be taking it already with what i spend on booze every month

Fin doesn't decrease T. It increases T.

A thread died for this

>Fin doesn't decrease T. It increases T.
It kinda does both, desu.
Fin blocks testosterone from converting into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which technically leads to more T in the body, but less effects from T ON the body.
It's part of the more modern versions of antiandrogens. Their existence have made blood tests kinda useless for certain purposes.
