Hello guys. I've been on this forum for almost a year. i have really bad health problems. i have severe prostatitis, i think its due to my stupid decison to try finasteride for hair loss, it was only 3 days of topical version. i can't believe that just 3 days of topical 'medication' could do so much harm. I can't believe in what happened. The pain has become unbearable, i have to take tramadol almost everyday to feel any relief. i can't live like this. i simply can't, though i really loved life, i've always loved the word, i was always alwaysb very sensitive and full of emotions. but my time has come. i am waiting for a second supply of sn since i want to be as sure as possible that its gonna work. if it comes, i am simply gone. I didnt know any of you and probably noone here had a chance to at least get me to know since i did a few posts here. i just wanted somebody to remember me, even from this simple post. i am writing it wirh my eyes full of tears but i simply cannot do anything else, even if i wated. thanks for your attention and goodbye, i hope i am gone on 4th june at most. It shouldnt have ended up like this. Bye

Health problems suck. I used to have chronic joint pain due to a nasty infection because of chlamydia. It was awful. I cried from the pain often. I'm glad it went away. Wishing you all the best on your journey.

I used topical finasteride for 3 days. i should have waited for the result of transplant but i made this devision at 3rd month of the process. i am only 22, so i thought it was crucial to halt the hair loss. but since then i have prostatitis which became severe in april. I've always loved my personality. i still do. but its simply impossible to live like this, the pain is unbearable

Idk, i think no. i've had it since october, there were some significamtly better days but since easter i am in severe flare up. now i've been taking levofloxacin which is a very toxic antibiotic for 9 days but it doesnt seem to work so far. i really hoped that in fact maybe its an infection. even chronic bacterial prpstatitis demands long treatment, but i really hoped i would feel relief after levofloxacin

Idk, they try to treat is an infection but i dont see results so far. but to be honest this current flare up started at the beginning of apirl and i was postponing the treatment because of the fear of levofloxacin. but if it indeed is a result of finasteride then probably there's nothing i can do. i will give levofloxacin a few more days since i wait for sn supply. i already have one but i wanted it from other company to be sure that its pure and reliable

I got fucked over by finasteride too, a living hell. got sent to the pshych ward for freaking out in hospital over my symptoms and put on antipsychotics. Not a single family member believes me.
my genitals are completely numb and i cant cum out anything, my penis has less girth and my knees hurt, im in constant fatigue and brain fog. family thinks im insane and need more antipsychotics. Just let me die already

If this is treatable and you have no other issues going on, is it not worth waiting for the treatment to work?

i agree. plus you yourself said it, you love life. you don't have to go down this path if you're not ready to die. i know it hurts and i know you're in a lot of pain, but unless i misunderstood, the treatment hasn't been going on for long. maybe give it at least one more month? no one's gonna force you to stick around, so it's understandable if you really can't take it, but please remember you can't come back from death.

But this pain is unbearable. it's not an exaggeration. and if nothing works its probably finasteride effect and then its not treatable. it lasts for 8 months already

Thank you so much for beautiful words 😢. i've suffered way too much for a 22 year old boy. i havent had a single day without physical pain in my adult life. I hope my powerful interal energy won't disappear but it will be freed from the prison which is my body, as well as my beautiful (i hope so) soul

Its even more tragic in my case that it started on the dean's leave which i took for another health problem which seemed treatable and mi nightmare started from a "medication" for a cosmetical issue. i knew it was dangerous medications, but even in my wildest dreams i wouldnt think that it could end up so bad, its not evem listed as a side effect. i really wanted to live, i've done everything i could to overcome it but it seems impossible

I understand I've been living in pain from illnesses and injuries for over 20 years The last 3 years has been unbearable pain no quality of life no cure nothing helps the pain but I have many debilitating diseases and degenerative diseases I have flares from Lupus, fibromyalgia, CFS, gastroparesis is severe, etc. If I could I would go now I'm suffering so much. But you said you love life. You can always go if you don't get better. If you go to the ER and demand to be admitted for IV antibiotics and pain relief you can get better. I know from experience, I have 3 autoimmune diseases sometimes you need to try a few different antibiotics. I would tell them your fear of antibiotics. I get many kidney infections from Lupus and have had permanent medication injuries. There is a swab test to see what medications you can use. If you don't feel better you can always leave even against medical advice. I sympathize with your pain but I'm not sure how much research you have done on this. I have read your posts. I will remember you but I think I will feel like I could have actually helped you if I had the chance. I am only giving you my opinion because I have been hospitalized so many times and have lived because of my own research and advocating for myself. Only now I do need to find a way out of my agony but I have exhausted everything. I hope the best for you and I'm sorry you're in pain. Some pain can be easily treated. I hope you find relief. Can I ask what you have tried for pain or infection besides one medication? Only if you want to answer of course. ♥

That's not true that i am gonna kill myself. the finasteride will. i am a victim of this drug directly from hell. the "doctor: who prescriped me this shit promised me that nothing will happen even after oral version and that its safe, pfs doesnt exist and sides are completely reversible. fucking bullshit. he is the one who murdered me. i was really scared of taking it but i thought i had to risk, the worst thing i could expect were weaker erections and maybe slight, temporary testicular pain. but it ended up much worse i could ever imagine. its ironic that such poison like levofloxacin doesnt hurt me but that shit destroyed my life after 3 days of topicsl use

Of course i want. i think bactrim gave me partial relief, like maybe 50%. i dont fear levofloxscin anymore since prpbably i won't experience severe sides if i havent so far. classic nsaids do nothing for the pain. and the problem is that the prostate is difficult to penetrste for antibiotics, levofloxscin is probably the best penetrating antibiotic, the options are very limited. i haven't tried a hormonal path but i think it is no point in doimg it cause the hormone levels are probably back to normal for months. noone knows the mechsnism of finasteride doing damage. i really want to be wrong and i deluded that this drug is innocent cause my symptoms look like infection but if levo has a hard time to help it made me really hopeless. the only idea left i have is trying a steroid prednisone or pain drug tapentadol, since tramadol and xanax are basically the only drugs that bring temporary relief

They lie we all have to research everything ourselves when doctors don't always care and drug companies have them push meds after short trials.All drugs have side effects. With new drugs they have no idea what will happen when people are on them longer than the trial Everyone reacts differently. My spouse took a common antibiotic in front of me and if I wasn't paying attention they would have died. I saw flushing and immediate swelling by the time I got to the hospital ER I had to yell for the guard as they were almost unconscious and I was only driving 5 minutes to the hospital. Of course the natural way should be done first.

I'm so sorry to read this and sorry that this is your situation. I do know of someone who CTB'd because of prostatitis, but he was in midlife. I hope that there is some other way for you, some other treatment that could be tried, maybe something that hasn't even been discovered yet, but would be in time. But I know it's hard to wait and search for answers when you're in pain and can't see the light at the end of the tunnel. I wish you peace either way.

I agree it can harm you from one use. As can meds. Have you gotten a second opinion and confirmed that diagnosis? I'm so sorry you're in such pain.

The worst is that i had knom finasteride is dsngerous, i had known it can have permanent side effects but ive never heard of chronic severe prostatitis as a result of it. I feel its my and this 'doctor's' fault. but it doesnt change the fact i suffer horribly. but this liar ensured me everyrhing will be fine. a life with really bright future taken away from me at just 22... i would go to the er if i felt that there is something they can do. but i dont think so. if its indeed an effect of finasteride there's nothing i can do, noone recovered from this shit. post finasteride syndrome itself has a different range of symptoms but it still can be qualified as a long term complication. I took dean's leave to recover from chronic tension headaches and it costed me life 😭😭. i cry heavily alnost daily. i should be in my prime, living beautiful life not dying in misery

I really did my best to try and live but the condition became unbearable in april. the life was stolen from me at the age 22 by thoughtless 'doctor'. he knew i was struggling with other health problems and still insisted that finasteride is safe

most of the doctors told thst it csnnot be from finasteride, one said he cant say if its from it or not. but doctors are completely unaware of what this shit can do to people and know nothing how to reverse it
