[QUOTE="Vitamin_C, post: 138737, member: 12373"] Its weird how all my gero patients taking 5mg/day don't report the PFS side effects pertaining to mood or sexual dysfunction lol, or that indigenous tribe that has a genetic defect causing dysfunction in DHT don't report PFS-like symptoms. There is a huge component of Nocebo effect with this drug pertaining to PFS. Some guys tolerate it well, no issues with libido etc and some guys don't. If you are prone to anxiety/worry I would avoid the drug as this could likely result in thinking this drug caused some sort of long-term illness with you. The Harvard study demonstrates the gigantic nocebo effect and stigma this drug has. I wouldn't personally take it if I were balding but finding guys that have bad side effects from it are extremely rare and can almost all be found on the PFS forums perpetuating each others doom and gloom. If you read reports about guys who have recovered from PFS, they admit there is a large psychological component to PFS and these guys have been shunned by the PFS community claiming they "never really had PFS." It's a debacle, but its a drug we always educate our patients on prior to prescribing. I don't personally believe it does any long-term damage, but if the patient believes it does there is no convincing them otherwise. [/QUOTE]
