    I think decreased flow is related to rise in dht stimulating prostate causing symptoms of bph ( relatively.) I did have the significant lack of sensitivity/ feeling and for the most part it’s gone and I think size has returned. Having long periods of morning ( nighttime) wood have improved it.

    Update: I’m posting some of this just so I can have a record of progress. I took a dose of avodart yesterday est 2 1/2 drops so a little more than before( at the 12th day) . My thought ( which may be inaccurate ) is that if I increase slowly, possibly my system will slowly reset to not...

    Basically better mood. The reason I took it was because of the research that it help prevent side effects when starting accutaine. But now I do not take it regularly and I fact have not had a dose for two weeks. I have 400mg and take about 1/4 tab.

    When I took it every 4 days right at the beginning, I initially felt better but then worse I think bc suppressed my self too much. You are right, not really sure if DHT has to be high for this to work. I think the thought was as long as DHT was high, this propetuated the receptor resistance or...

    Right... I totally understand and there are no guarantees. I actually put some avodart in minoxidil and used that a couple times Dec 2017 and actually felt really good for a couple days but then I panicked! I totally thought I could make myself worse. But I have tried so many different things...

    That might be too frequent dosing. Every one to two weeks seems to be better. I also noticed muscle pump and facial swelling improved right away and sexual side effects improved later. Do you know your DHT level? When I started this I was taking SAM-e, like 100 mg. I would consider starting...

    Update Still doing really well with this protocol. I’ve been doing this for 3 and a half months. I’m taking 2 drops of avodart every 2-3 weeks. For example, right before last dose I noticed decrease in libido at 14th day so took dose and for one day felt slightly better than average mood and...

    PFS almost cured

    IMO, I think you should take 1/4 tab and then wait 1-2 weeks. You could consider taking with SAM e. I’m still doing well on avodart low dose. But when I started I took 1/4 tab and felt good like you. Either the next dose or the one after I took like a crumb. It didn’t do anything and then...

    I used to get a boost after re-starting Avodart. Maybe it could represent a recovery??? That would be great but way to soon to make that assumption.

    Right...I started it because of the accutane study and it seemed interesting that I took it off an on when PFS started. To be honest I started taking it initially and only take 1/2 tab but I have been very inconsistent with it after the first two weeks. Unfortunately that will mess the data up...

    It would be great to get an update from pfstinks and dasjes. Did they even check DHT levels prior to starting regimen??! If this is ever going to be a recommended protocol we need more info to help decrease the risk for those who try it. I tried to message both with no reply. I know there are...

    Another update. I was going to update weekly as day to day changes are unreliable but like my previous post explained, after the dose you feel suppressed and then better after days to week and then even better than baseline hopefully. Each cycle I have improved more. This time , I took the...

    It’s just a theory and I’m not sure of the exact mechanism( no one knows with certainty) . It could be down regulating AR or re-sensitizing something that have become resistant (AR) because of the sudden higher levels of shy that had been suppressed. i would think this protocol would be more...

    Update Still doing really well with this protocol. I’ve been doing this about three months. A couple weeks ago I changed to avodart from propecia. IMO it’s important to dose every one to two weeks or more. I just took another avodart 2 drop dose yesterday. It has been almost four weeks from...

    Update: I have been doing this protocol since mid January. So it's been a little over two months. I posted my labs previously and how after even a week after 1/4 tab of Propecia, my DHT was still 30 points lower. I have ranged from taking it every 3 days which is way too frequent (for me) to...

    Yes. still taking a small dose 200mg. I agree, it's likely helping. The libido/ Ed has to be from the Propecia. Hopefully that will continue to improve. I plan to repeat labs monthly and will post results.

    Update: I have had no bad side effects with this protocol. I'm taking Propecia 1/4 tab. Libido/ED is higher/better than base line about 3 days after dose. I am dosing every 7days. Mentally I am really good. Mood is really good. I have a better feeling of well being. These are not...
