    Yes, 1 mg and you are correct about blocking. I think the difference really is to dose intermittently enough not over suppress you system, maybe.

    Update: I am taking 1/4 tab of Propecia intermittently. Every 3 days I believe is too frequent. For me, I think longer than 7 days is too long. I plan to take every 7 days for the next interval. I have had very good results for several days at time, but I also have felt like I took too...

    You are right, every three days is too frequent. I can tell I’m still suppressed. Mentally I’m good but libido still lower. The time before when I dosed at 3 days seemed like I was even better than I had been in forever. Maybe accumulation of fin coupled with increase freq. I’ll wait 5-7...

    Update: Again I’m just tracking symptoms/ feelings/ effects and dosing with frequency with this regimen. I was feeling very positive last week about this protocol until Thursday. I had decided taking 1/4 tab at a shorter frequency would be helpful. Last Monday l took it and felt great mentally...

    I would think starting 1/4 once a week and track your symptoms closely would be reasonable but it would probably be more reasonable to just wait a month. Give it time for my experiment to continue. Everything could crash quickly, and the longer this goes with good results, the (possibly) safer...

    Good news. I’m trying to track objective info for recovery and last night I had a “wet dream”. I haven’t had that in 10+ years. It seems like a great sign that things are coming back online if you know what I mean. So current dosing is 1/4 tab every three days.

    Update: I feel like I’m improving daily w this regimen I’ll look it up but from memory testosterone was 700+range 300-800 and DHT was like 84 30-86 range.

    I wonder if you could just stay on like a 1/4 tab, for example like every three days forever? I know propecia is dangerous but if you could like stay in a sweet spot area regarding a really low dose( maybe only for those with high DHT) ?? I think a lot of us actually felt good on it before we...

    Update: Took 1/4 propecia yesterday. I felt mentally very sharp and a lot of energy. Definitely an improvement, and I feel it has to be from the propecia. Libido yesterday was lower than normal. I have noticed this right after I dose, mentally feel good but libido drops for 1-2 days. But...

    End of day update: This update is mainly for me to remember how I am feeling and at what point in time compared to my Propecia dosing. Will be taking my third dose tomorrow 1/4 tab. As I stated above, please do not follow me on this until we know more about the results as I know there is a...

    I really appreciate your input here and you have studied this issue far more than I. But I am not proposing anyone do what I am. Maybe I should have stated that from the beginning like PFStinks. ( And by the way he hasn't posted for some time and that is a little concerning to me.) The...

    PFS BLOOD TESTS( and THEORY )

    I've never noticed a benefit post alcohol. I have higher T and DHT. Wonder if that it related???

    Update: A week ago Monday I took ( second dose) a crumb, like 1/20th propecia tab. in 2 days I felt a boost. By last Saturday I was feeling lower and then by Sunday cold genitals, no libido and really low mood. I suspect this is the crash post fin dose. I took 1/4 tab on Sunday and within a...

    PFS BLOOD TESTS( and THEORY )

    These findings are important. The SAM e and accutane study is interesting. Since I am restarting low dose 1/4 tab weekly of Propecia, I think I might start SAM e. I have already added folic acid and glutathione. Interestingly, some say when they restart Fin, they might feel a little better...

    Did you crash on Finasteride or when getting off

    I think it is surprising that so many crashed while on Fin. Might be helpful to see if there is a association between crashing while on Fin or post fin and DHT/ Testosterone levels. My story is that I stopped Avodart ( as I had so many times before) and I noticed some sexual side effects...
