Help me. Post finasteride sindrome and all sintomns

[Ocguy]

It was difficult for me to do that protocol although I know it's good bro. I think some pro or prebiotics full on bifidus could help me. Maybe some kefir as well
@Ocguy

Kefir and probiotic are good for lactobacillus... u need lots of PREbiotics to build up bifido. The gut drink has all the resistant starch you need to do that.. but again it takes a little bit of time of constant feeding.

Just a quick update. Finish my 2nd circle of tei and wiaitng for two weeks to retest. Already have the kit.
In the meanwhile, here's a stool test I've done two weeks ago and the results just came.
Any thoughts @bruschi11 or others?
Thanks bros

This is interesting that you have a good level of lactobacillus. Most people with PFS/PAS who have done this test have this species wiped out (including me). My beneficial e.coli strain is also wiped out, but my levels of bifidobacterium are fine.

Odd that we still have similar symptoms however.

As suggested, probably worth trying a good probiotic and foods like sauerkraut.

because it has nothing to do with the colon bacteria

Sauerkraut will give him alot more lactobacillus.. and a good probiotic can help with bifido but youre just renting them, . Which is fine short term, but the best way is to feed your existing guys,

Yep, all those studies linking gut to the brain, yet this issue has a life way beyond that.

And what cna I do to fight the pilory? I find extremity hard to digest food right now and in parte I believe it's because of that...
@Helen if my digestion is so screw up how can I take supps from tei and still absorve them? Should I treat gut at the same time as tei?

 

[HerrFisch]

I didn't know I got that. But I feel my main issue is the gut. Two days ago I was with a hot girl and I could not perform after eating two pizzas
I don't k ow how to fight it, do you guys have a clue?

Hm, don’t really know. Back when I had gastritis and thought it could be h pylori, I’ve read a lot of good things about mastic gum. Actually bought it but did not use it.

So guys here's my latest tei results ( 3rd scalp sample).
This second cicle i was doing it with the help of a practicioner and ill also complete this with an extended blood exams.
So i came from fast 4 to slow 1 wich got me really shocked.
My hg is still high but my copper was in the right range after being so low in the first 2 cycles. Calcium is raising also.
As for symptoms, my gino is getting worst and digestion also. Energy is good, libido is so so but i could perform with 4 different girls although the shrinkage is really bothering me ate least they don't complain.
I can work out properly although i do calisthenics in my house a long with dumbells and trx. Im not gaining or loosing weight : 71 kg to be precise.
But main issue is my gut right now, coz digestion is fucking impaired and im scared about this constant pain and the thought of some sort of cancer or smtg. Fasting for fhe first 12 hours of the day helps a bit, but still some foods i ate i just pooped them out 1 hour after and can be any tipe of food, no specific one.
Any recomendation beside the supps tei gave me?

Seems like you improved a lot. Fast 4 to Slow 1 is good isn't it? You can workout now, too. that's good man. Energy and Libido sound like great gains.
Good Job my man. I'm proud of you bro, you've come a long way. Forgot about that ex too, banging girls can do that to you.

 

[sanka]

Maybe you can try to add zinc, as the practitioner gaves you and it improve a lot your zn/cu rate

What fixed my digestion was a combination of:

Bulletproof gut protocol
Digestive enzymes/ox bile
TUDCA
Artichoke extract
Digestive bitters before meals

Maybe something like this could help you, too

 

[Pedro melo]

Did you had impaired digesyion also bro? Mine is so fucked uo i cna hear my belly is so embarrassing...
I can try that while in tei? Coz guys hsre always say tei alone but it seems it doesnt help my digestion.
Thks so much bro

I think the bulletproof gut protocol was the main factor, but the artichoke extract, ox bile, and TUDCA fixed my fat digestion. Yeah, I was in the same boat as you at first. Digestion was fucked for like 9 months before I tried most of this. After a few months on these supps my digestion was fixed for awhile, so I stopped taking them. Everything was fine for a few more months, but it recently got bad again so I started back on the supps. Now, after just a couple weeks, digestion is back on track and getting better every day.

So I think you just need to get your digestion in a good place with the supps, then you can take them maybe once a week to maintain.

So guys heres some blood tests ive done in the beggining of the monht. I know blood itself dont tell us too much but along with my hair test ( i came from fast 4 to slow 1) and my stool test eich i have severely low bifidus bacterias i would. Lile to now some opinions. Ill start the 2nd round of tei this week eich will be composed by vit e, parapack, adrenal complex and betaine hcl.
My prolactine is so so high ( 21.5 and the maximum is 20) vould this explain my low libido?
Im using cialis 5mg 2 times a week so i can perform sexually otherwise i feel emotion but downhere the blood simply doesnt exist...
Thanks guys @sanka @bruschi11 @NilesI

 

[sanka]

Maybe some zinc to Raise ceruloplasmin wouldnt be so bad

 

[HerrFisch]

Homocysteine is a bit high too

Hey guys... since 2019 i didn't come back on the forum. Hope y'all are doing good ( or better then last time at least).

I feel ashamed but, unfortunately, after more or less 7 years of not having almost any side effects of PFS, it came back even stronger then 1st crash. Let me update you and thanking u in advance for your patience:

In august 2025, i went to turkey for a hair transplant, and all was good, but unfortunately they gave me a shampoo and lotion with serenoa serrulata a.k.a. saw palmetto. You probably know it, since acts very similar to finasteride.

I just saw it too late and since October i feel pain all over my scrotum area, testicles, 0 libido, shrinking penis and testicles, i go piss from 30 to 30 minutes, and my boobs are hurting ( i got gynecomastia in 2018 specially on my right breast). i Also start to feel bad digestion and teeth pain.

I'm so sorry to bother you, and reading all this info here on forum i get lost... I just need some guidance , coz back in 2018 i ended up in psyco hospital, loosing my relationship and i don't want it to happen again.

So u guys don't need to read all the way up to the beginning of the story here are the highlights:

I took finasteride from 2016 to 2018. Intermittently, to say so - 0.25mg, one day on one day off, etc... eventually on June 2018 I crashed an o stopped cold turkey ( not sure if I didn't stop cold turkey i would crash or not), and the most scary time of my life came: blurry vision, no libido, shrink penis and testicle, pain all over body, gynecomastia specially right chest , very bed digestion and sensation of being full at minimum amount of food, pain, skin not healing properly and maybe other symptoms i cant recall right now

I did a lot of things between 2018 and 2019 : 7 days fasting , water fasting, dry fasting , TEI program for some months, tamoxifen for chest , cialis for the elections, liver flush, coffee enemas etc... ( it's all on the vlog and we're so many things since I was desperate, that I can't recall all of them...). And eventually I tought i was cured in July or August 2019 , I installed tinder I started to date , sometimes I could perform other times not but was enough for me to live happy...
Until October 2025. I did the hair transplant in August this year, and the idiots gave me a shampoo with serenoa serrulata ( palmetto)... when I saw it, was too late and I never tought a fucking lotion or shampoo could actually make me fell worst then finasteride itself. So let's say 2 and a half months of shampoo and that's it.... I'm like 1st crash, and maybe worst coz my genitals never got its full size back again so it's even more shrinked and with the bonus of wanting to urinate all time... I'm scared , brothers. I never tried proviron, beta hcg or any of those things, I always went more for natural roots but idk... at this point I feel I could combine both ideas , to say so.
How can someone be so broken that a simple shampoo that's for 1 minute in your head fucks u like this... it blows my mind.

And curing 1st time... now I'm not sure if I was just sweeping it under carpet, although my libido was good, digestion was better, ginecomastia never advanced ( it never went normal tho) and dry eyes and skin were better. I really don't know what 'kinda fixed' me...
Anyway, this is the story,.
By the way I forgot , my sleeping is crap nowadays coz I wanna sleep but I always wake up with pain in balls and wanting to piss all time... this never happened 1st crash.
I've been talking privately with some users here, and they are trying to help me, but feel free to shar your toughts.
Cheers, everyone!

PS: here are 2 blood exams made on the 3 weeks.
