Propecia bad for you?

I am contemplating taking propecia which is a prescription pill (for hair loss) designed to block dht receptors or something..... Not quite sure how propecia is supposed to prevent hair loss, but i was concerned it might have a negative impact on someone trying to build muscle. Anyone have any knowledge on this subject? any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
 
Propecia

I have use propecia before about 1 yr. Needless to say it didnt work for me i ended up with alopecia total hair loss. Iam now in my third full year. But i have done alot of research on propecia and have found out that you can devolpe total mix reaction in some males using it. As in total hair loss. But i also have found out that using flax seed oil reverses dht so i decide to try it the last 7 mths. i have started to regain hair grow considerbly no b.s. Ill stick with this remedy for sure. Try this flax seed but give it some time. Tear. It. Up. Mad Dawg !
 
i took proscar for hair loss for 6 months and saw zero results. on top of that, my sex drive was not what it usually was so i chucked that shit in the garbage. i read a study about it and basically you have to take it for a year and the test subjects who saw improvement saw a 2percent improvement after a year of using it. fuck that. try the flax though. even if you dont grow a rug it is damn good for you.
 
I,m takin proscar .......great results
Caught the hairloss early and shedding has completly ceased.
No negative sides as far as muscle is concerned.
The sex drive sides subsided after a couple months into using.
Lots of other things cause hair loss......other than dht......stress ...poor diet......Androgens
 
i dont do the oil. i buy flax seeds. you take about 10 tablespoons of seed and leave them in a glass of water overnight. in the morning you drink the water and seeds. then you chase it with a full glass of water. during the night the seeds secrete a slimy film and blow up to about 5 times their original size. flax seeds contain two types of fiber. one is digestable and the other one goes out the way it came in. this cleans you out really well and makes you go to the bathroom regularly. i didnt know it was effective for hair loss but about six months after starting on the seeds my hair stopped falling out. i never made the connection until i read mad dawgs post. just be consistant with it if you do it. flax seeds are good for alot of things. if you want to do the oil thats up to you. im sure they have different properties and purposes. i would do both if i could but ive never come across the oil. laters bro.

Try Saw Palmetto, it is supposed to block DHT too and it is natural. It also helps and enlarged prostate which is a good thing!

It comes in gelcaps that you can buy anywhere. i take like 2-3 a day.
I read studies where Saw Plametto was just as effective as precrip drugs for shrinking an enlarged prostate. Check it out.
 
Propecia has worked for me, however I did have decreased libido, which in turn has made it much harder for me to gain muscle. My thought is that, buy blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, more is being converted to estrogen, causing the surpression of the HPTA. I added some DHEA, which made things better, but I don't know why. I recently took some 6-oxo with DHEA, you can checkout my thread listed below. At first the 6-oxo kicked in the boys and they grew, bring back my libido big time, but later the DHEA kind of killed it.

In the end, I am thinking of taking some Nolva to counteract the Propecia. What do you guys think? I'm thinking that I will be back to my superman self that I use to be before my hair started falling out and I started taking Propecia. Superman self explination, I use to be able to go to the gym and do more reps or add more weight nearly every time. It was truly amazing, but that was the past.
