Does finasteride stop working after some time?

santhoshreddytemp
Hi, i have been taking finastride since 11-SEP-2018(6 months), got better results with small effect on my erection (not completely),sexual thoughts and noticed less sperm. Recently i am getting good erection and slowly it's becoming as it was before finasteride medication and noticed slight increase in hair fall. so finasteride stopped working or my body trying to overcome the side effects i got? also on internet i read finasteride stops woking in few persons after 1 year. is it true?
