I took Propecia for 6 months.Dosage was 0.5mg per day.I experienced side effects.These were: 'weaker' erections, a decrease in the frequency and 'strength' of spontaneous erections and morning erections and my face was bloated.I discontinued.5 weeks have passed but I am still experiencing all of the side effects. Is this normal and usually how long does it take for the side effects to cease after discontinuing the medication? Is there anything I can do to get rid of the side effects faster?
Answer: Persistnet effects are extremely rare The wash-out period for Finasteride is just 7 days. So by now it is out of your body for good. Wait it out, the whole hype on persistent symptoms is overstated and it might have affected you. this is called the nocebo effect, i.e. an adverse side effect that is not a direct result of the specific pharmacological action of the drug, but due to patience awareness of the possibility of this adverse effect.
