3 years worth of bloodwork on Finasteride
Each test was done around mid-February of each year.
2023: pre-finasteride
2024: roughly one year after taking .025% topical fin, 1ml about 3-4 times a week
2025: 1.5 months after I started .5mg oral fin 3x a week in addition to Hims topical 3% solution 3x a week, alternate day
Still getting morning wood but libido has fallen off a cliff and struggled to get an erection when I had a girl over last weekend, even after taking 20mg of Viagra. Symptoms started 1.5 months after taking oral fin and the 3% topical solution.
Should’ve just stuck with the .025% topical. I was getting good regrowth from it, but thought I was side-effect free, hence why got greedy with the gains and upped my dosage.
Just figured my blood work would be useful/interesting to some.
Sorry if the plots are garbage, used ChatGPT to generate them.
