Hey guys,

I hope someone can help, I'm going out of my mind. I was taking propecia and ru58841 for my hairloss and crashed my hormones, my hands started to dry up and I would get very hot.

anyway the only thing that completely cures my dry hands is drinking beer, even just one. same with tofu, I drank half a glass of soya and my stubborn dry hands cleared up within the hour. However I also get hot flashes when I eat these. I haven't taken anything for my hair. for about 6 months and my hormones are back to normal levels but why are oestrogen foods helping so much when my oestrogen is normal?

DHEA 5.06 umol/l (0.44 - 13.40)

Follicle Stim Hormone 3.01 iu/l (1.50 - 12.4)
Luteinsing 7 iu/l (1.7 - 8.6)
Free Testosterone. 0.375nmol (0.30 - 1)
Testosterone 18.2 nmol/l (7.6 - 31.4)
Sex Horm Binding Glob 31.5nmol/l (16 - 55)
Free Androgen Index. 57.78 ratio (24 - 104)
17 - beta Oestradiol. 97.2pmol/l (0 - 191.99)
DHT 0.720nmol/l (0.34 - 2.06)
 
The most common persistent side effects of finasteride are loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, depression, suicidal ideation, anxiety, panic attacks, Peyronie's disease, penile shrinkage, gynecomastia, muscle atrophy, cognitive impairment, insomnia, severely dry skin and tinnitus. These can last for years after stopping the drug.

Are these your only symptoms?

http://matthewbruhin.com/san-diego-counseling-services/post-finasteride-syndrome-therapy/

The Post-Finasteride Syndrome is a serious state of permanent sexual, mental, and physical side effects which do not resolve after quitting the drug, most often accompanied by an acquired form of secondary hypogonadism and post-drug loss of androgenic action, which remains highly resistant to hormonal treatments aimed at restoring Testosterone/DHT’s effects in the male body to pre-drug virility levels. It is also surmised by the few specialists in the medical field that a type of receptor or “brain damagehas occurred. As often seen with such damage, recovery is very slow or now questioned whether possible at all. Needless to say, men suffering from PFS are plagued with any physical, mental, and emotional symptoms that have led to long term depression, marital problems and divorce, and now several reports cases of suicide.
 
I had similar side effects in the first week with fin. I could hardly feel my penis and my orgasm was pretty pathetic. I just felt the "pressure" rather than anything else. If I am honest, it did scare me a little because I like my orgasms!
After the first week or so it started to get better and it's back to normal now.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
